What are the downsides of polished concrete floors?

• <div><p>Polished concrete floors also have downsides. Some homeowners, for example, might dislike the coldness of the material (though area rugs can help warm up the space). Concrete floors are also hard, which isn’t always ideal for children and pets. What’s more, these floors are susceptible to cracking, and repairs can be costly. Some homeowners might not like that installation isn’t DIY-friendly. </p></div>

Q: Can I pour concrete patios or steps myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for small jobs, but professionals ensure durability, proper grading, and compliance with safety codes.</p></div>

Q: How long should concrete last before cracking?

• <div><p>Concrete cracks can occur at any time. Many cracks actually happen within a few hours or days of pouring the concrete because of mistakes made during the process; here are a few <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/does-freshly-poured-concrete-normally-crack.htm">reasons for freshly poured concrete cracks</a>.</p><p>If you&rsquo;re nervous about causing cracks when pouring concrete, hire a pro to handle the work, rather than tackling it yourself. You can also prevent ongoing cracks by taking care of your concrete pathway or driveway with a little sealer. Here&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-often-should-you-seal-a-driveway.htm">how often to reseal your driveway</a> to reduce the risk of cracks.</p></div>

Q: Can I remove concrete myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for small areas, but professional services ensure safe, efficient removal with minimal dust and debris.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to stain or paint concrete?

• <div><p>Generally speaking, stain is a better option for concrete because it soaks into the surface and won&rsquo;t get worn away like a topical paint will. Painting concrete increases the risk that moisture will get trapped beneath the top layer of paint, which wears concrete down over time. So long as you know how to prep concrete for staining, you'll maintain its strength after you finish your project.</p></div>
