Q: What’s the difference between a floating slab and a monolithic slab?

• <div><p>A floating slab is a single chunk of concrete that sits directly on flat soil, while a monolithic slab is a single piece of concrete that includes built-in footings that reach several feet below where the majority of the slab sits. Monolithic slabs provide more support, so they&rsquo;re suitable for home construction, whereas floating slabs get minimal support from the soil directly below and are more common under sheds and detached garages.</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: What should I consider when pouring a new concrete slab?

• <div><p>When pouring a new concrete slab, you should consider how additional costs will affect your total, including reinforcements, decorative enhancements, finishing, and curing. It's also important to consider local laws regarding the grade, drainage, and permits for installing concrete on your property. Speak with your professional about the ideal thickness for your slab, and also consider whether you&rsquo;ll need drainage for slab longevity.</p></div>

Q: Should the toilet flange be screwed to a concrete floor?

• <div><p>Yes, you should screw your flange to the subfloor, including cement. The best way to get this done is to predrill holes into the concrete using a hammer drill and a &frac14;-inch concrete bit. Be careful when you&rsquo;re ready to bolt your flange down, as you can accidentally crack it. You can avoid this issue by not installing the screws too deep. Or, you can opt for a flange with a stainless steel ring so you don&rsquo;t have to worry about cracking the plastic.</p></div>

Q: Can you pour concrete when it freezes at night?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to pour concrete if the temperatures are expected to dip below freezing at night, but you need to take some special precautions before you do. Most importantly, you need to make sure your concrete won&rsquo;t freeze, so the best thing to do is enclose the area and heat it. You should also make sure you&rsquo;re using cold-weather concrete that&rsquo;s designed for pouring in cold weather. Use accelerants to help speed up the curing process and avoid cold temperatures from resulting in weak concrete. </p></div>

The crew was to do a saw cut on our existing stamped concrete floor to install internal irrigation drains. They used a jackhammer, and did irregular cuts that were difficult to repair. They also scratched our cement floor in several places. However they were very polite and cleaned up well...

Gerber and his teammates Edwin and Kyriee did a great job. They completed the basement waterproofing quickly and professionally. They had to carry a large number of bags of concrete debris up a slippery grass slope, and they did this without complaint. Thank you guys for a job well done.

We hire him to do all kinds of carpentry work and he also pours concrete patios. He shows up, which is important, and he does what he says he's going to do for the price he says. He's multi-talented really, and I'd give him an A+ if I could.
