Is thicker concrete less likely to crack?

• <div><p>Yes, thicker concrete is less likely to crack. The thicker the concrete is, the less susceptible it is to extreme changes in weather conditions that often cause concrete to crack or chip. If you’re unable to install a thicker concrete driveway for any reason, you can also ask your professional to install more rebar or wire mesh to provide greater strength and better resilience to damage. </p></div>

Q: What can cause concrete to crack?

• <div><p>Concrete can crack from general wear, improper installation, or in response to uneven support from the soil underneath. Small, thin cracks on the surface of aging concrete are often a result of normal wear and tear, while cracks on new concrete likely indicate a problem with installation. Larger cracks or uneven steps can signify a much more severe issue. A concrete contractor should be able to diagnose the cause and repair concrete cracks for you.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take concrete floors to fully settle?

• <div><p>Concrete can take years to fully settle, but interior concrete floors are mostly settled after a year. Shifting and settling can occur throughout your home&rsquo;s life, but most major settling happens the first few years after the concrete is poured. It&rsquo;s not uncommon for minor cracks to appear in concrete floors over time&mdash;check with a concrete pro to ensure new cracks don&rsquo;t indicate a structural issue in your home. </p></div>

Q: Can I drive on concrete after 3 days?

• <div><p>No, you cannot drive on concrete after three days because it has not cured enough to support the weight of a vehicle. Doing so will likely leave tire track imprints on the concrete surface and reduce its long-term strength. It is best to wait at least seven days before driving on concrete.</p></div>

Q: Should fence post concrete be above ground?

• <div><p>Ideally, your concrete should set slightly above ground at an angle sloping away from the fence post. This will add extra support and allow water to run away from the wood fence post. Keeping water out will help prevent wood rot. Additionally, you can add soil on top of the concrete for a seamless finish. </p></div>

The guys were very professional and showed good expertise. Some of the work is straightforward and some is observation based on experience. It was great watching them.

Carol was amazing. We have built a house with a simple finished concrete floor on the lower level. Our builder (who has since gone out of business) did his best to protect the floor after it was poured, but during the building process it got terribly muddy and discolored. I found the website...
