Q: Can you pour the footing and foundation together?

• <div><p>Yes, you can pour the footings for your foundation and the foundation system itself together, in which case the footing acts as the foundation. Some common examples of foundations where you might pour the footings simultaneously include floating slab foundations and monolithic slab foundations. Both lack traditional footings underneath the slab, so these foundation types are considered footings.</p></div>

Q: How thick should the concrete be for an above-ground storm shelter?

• <div><p>Aim for a concrete thickness of at least 4 inches for the walls of your above-ground storm shelter and 3.0 to 3.5 cubic yards of concrete for the base of your storm shelter. If you&rsquo;re concerned about the thickness of your concrete while building a storm shelter, get in touch with a professional storm shelter builder to make sure your work is up to code and safe. </p></div>

Q: What can you pour concrete over?

• <div><p>The ideal base for concrete is even, firm, and permeable to encourage drainage. Depending on your project's weight requirements, a combination of gravel, sand, or other aggregates is best. While you can technically pour concrete over grass, dirt, or an old piece of concrete, you risk threatening the concrete's stability.</p></div>

Q: Does fumigation go through walls?

• <div><p>While fumigation chemicals cannot pass through solid objects, they will seep into any openings in walls, doors, or other closed spaces. This allows them to get into tight places where pests may be hiding and causing damage, like termites ruining the foundation of your home. It also means that your home needs to ventilate for 48 hours before returning to ensure that no harmful chemicals remain in your space. </p></div>

Q: Can I do concrete work myself?

• <div><p>For handy homeowners, concrete projects are DIYable, and DIYing is a good way to save on the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/concrete-slab-cost.htm">cost of a concrete slab</a>, walkway, or other concrete work. If you&rsquo;re completing a larger project or one that&rsquo;s subject to building codes, you should always hire a professional to ensure the job is done safely and correctly. </p></div>

Elevated Construction is a pleasure to work with. They built an amazing boulder wall and driveway that should last forever. AJ is a wizard on the excavator and the finished product shows. He had some challenges with the slope of our yard but it turned out great. I would highly recommend this...

I wanted to turn a ground floor pantry into a bathroom. I had asked other plumbers and everytime we hit a literal brick wall (or a concrete floor). I was always told that it would be so hard and costly to put a pump into the floor. David Acosta was the first plumber who didn?t make it seem...

Ryan is a fraud! We trusted his professional advice about fixing a wall in a building we had purchased. But come to find out he had no idea what he was doing. $7,000 later he had built 1/2 a wall just had to tear it down so we can have it fixed correctly. Took the money and ran.

Found pinhole leak in pipes behind bathroom wall. Discovered quickly, cut neat hole in sheetrock, replaced damaged pipe, and even reseated the toilet with a new seal without charge, as far as I could tell. Extremely pleased at the quick response, expert work, and reasonable cost.

We have two finished rooms in our basement; each room had a wet corner. We are pleased with the work that Ameri-Dry did. In particular, they avoided doing any more damage than was absolutely necessary; for example, (1) I asked them to remove one whole sheet of paneling intact so that it could be...

They were very nice, but Canon was the person who came out to do the inspection and he was just very thorough and very friendly and straightforward. He was humorous, which was nice. When we have small insects dwelling in the home, they'll love us a lot. They had to come out again on 3 different...
