Q: How much does a concrete patio cost to pour?

• <div><p>In most cases, the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-install-patio.htm">cost to pour a concrete patio</a> falls between $8 and $12 per square foot. For a typical 200-square-foot concrete patio, you&rsquo;re looking at an average price of between $1,600 and $2,400. Most concrete patios will be 4 inches thick, so thickness plays a minimal role in the price variance, but some <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/concrete-finishes-for-patios.htm">types of concrete finishes</a> can cost up to $25 per square foot, which has a major impact on your total.</p></div>

Q: Is a 20% slope too steep for a driveway?

• <div><p>While some areas may allow for a slope of up to 20%, this is often the maximum slope for driveways, with a few exceptions of up to 25%. Other regions may have a maximum of 12%, 15%, or 18%, so check with your local building department to ensure you&rsquo;re laying a driveway that is up to code for your location. </p></div>

Q: Which surfaces are scorpions unable to climb?

• <div><p>Scorpions have difficulty climbing smooth, non-porous surfaces like clean glass or polished metal because their pincers and feet cannot grip the surface effectively. While they are excellent climbers on rough or textured materials such as wood, stucco, or brick, slick surfaces prevent them from gaining traction or anchoring themselves. If you're trying to scorpion-proof parts of your home, using smooth materials for barriers or containers can be an effective deterrent strategy.</p></div>

Q: What is the least expensive way to pave a driveway?

• <div><p>Gravel is the least expensive <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-driveways.htm">driveway type</a>, costing between <b>$1 and $3 per square foot</b>. That said, you&rsquo;ll likely need to add new gravel filling once or twice a year which can add up in additional costs over time. In addition, be prepared to regularly rake the gravel into place to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-make-your-gravel-driveway-look-rock-star.htm">keep your gravel driveway looking its best</a>.</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>

We've recommended them to other people. Unlike other contractors who are nosy and don't respect the homeowners, this company was very professional. They stayed within their working area and didn't even try to look inside the house when they passed by the back patio.
