Should I use water when drilling concrete?

• <div><p>Yes, using water when drilling concrete can help keep dust from clogging the hole and prevent your drill bit from wearing out, although you don’t need to spray water on the concrete while drilling. Water can also lubricate the bit and help keep it cool since drilling into concrete can generate a lot of friction and heat. </p></div>

Q: Are concrete countertops hard to maintain?

• <div><p>Yes, concrete countertops are harder to maintain than other materials. You don&rsquo;t have to stress about them every single day, but they need to be resealed at least once a year, if not multiple times a year. Concrete also stains easily, so you must clean spills immediately. Avoid harsh, acidic cleaning products, as they can damage the sealant. Finally, concrete is prone to cracking over time, requiring repairs.</p></div>

Q: Can I just use cement on its own?

• <div><p>No, cement cannot be used on its own except for rare circumstances, as it's only a binder to form other products, such as concrete or mortar. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to create a concrete or mortar mix. Concrete, for instance, needs cement, water, and aggregates such as sand and gravel. Using the right amount of water and water temperature is essential to ensure you have the right <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/concrete-slump.htm">concrete slump</a> and the mix spreads easily and cures well. </p></div>

Q: How long does it typically take to pour and finish concrete surfaces?

• <div><p>Usually 2-3 days, plus additional curing time before full use.</p></div>

Q: Are sidewalks concrete or cement?

• <div><p>Sidewalks are concrete, not cement. Cement is merely an ingredient of concrete. To pour a sidewalk, driveway, or patio, you need to form the right mixture of concrete using cement, aggregates, and water. Pouring concrete requires special tools such as a concrete mixer, compactor, screeds, and floats. Unless you're pouring a small area, it's best to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-hire-a-concrete-contractor.htm">hire a concrete pro</a> for a sidewalk or driveway project. </p></div>
