Q: Is concrete log siding the same thing as fiber cement siding?

• <div><p>Concrete log siding is not the same as <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-fiber-cement-siding.htm">fiber cement siding</a>. Fiber cement siding is made from a mixture of cement and cellulose fibers, while GFRC is made from cement, glass fibers, and polymers. The materials are similar in their durability, longevity, and curb appeal, and the main difference is that concrete log siding is available in more styles that resemble traditional log siding. Fiber cement is also less expensive, with materials costing around half what you&rsquo;d pay for concrete log siding.</p></div>

Q: Do you need a gravel base under crushed concrete?

• <div><p>Placing either a layer of mixed-size gravel or a paver base under your crushed concrete driveway is a good idea. The smaller pieces will compress and prevent the larger pieces of concrete from driving into the soil below, helping to avoid sinking over time under the weight of vehicles. For added protection from sinking and weeks, you can also install a heavy-duty weed liner beneath the gravel or paver base. Just be sure to use a permeable material to avoid drainage problems. </p></div>

Q: How long does efflorescence damage a concrete slab?

• <div><p>Efflorescence can damage a concrete slab for two to three years. After that, it resolves on its own once the surrounding salts are gone.</p></div>

Q: How many 50-pound bags of concrete do I need for a fence post?

• <div><p>The number of concrete bags you'll need depends on the width and length of your fence post hole. A 50-pound bag makes about 0.375 cubic feet of concrete. So, if your hole is 30 inches deep and 12 inches wide, you'll probably need around five 50-pound bags for each post.</p></div>

We have a covered/screened porch that had old paint that was starting to chip in places and we weren't thrilled with the color. We tried to sand the chipped areas and apply a new coat of floor paint, however it started to peel up after a few days. Turns out the original paint was oil-based...

This is second time I have used this firm with equally good results to the first. The first was to construct a stamped concrete curving sidewalk to enclose a garden area and to raise a sitting area for a back porch - the first job was done extremely well which is why we hired them again. This...

It was okay. They showed up on time, stuck to their price, did an outstanding job, followed up and removed all the forms and clean up and the owner was very good in communicating with me. I would use this provider again in the future.

The lady that came out told me she had 20 years in construction and 10 years in decorative concrete. She told me they don't know what the code is because they work in so many counties and can't keep up with them all??? Then she didn't know what a rise, or run of a step was. She told me they...
