Get matched with top concrete patio pros in Kindred, ND

Q: Can you pour concrete if it rained the day before?

• <div><p>Yes, you can pour concrete if it rained the day before, but you&rsquo;ll need to drain the construction site to ensure there isn&rsquo;t standing water where your slab will sit. You might need to manually remove any puddles and set up drainage on your site to dry it before pouring. Moist soil won&rsquo;t be an issue, but standing water will throw off your concrete mix ratios. Additionally, ensure there isn&rsquo;t more rain expected in the near future before you pour.</p></div>

Q: How thick should concrete be for steps?

• <div><p>Concrete should be at least 4 inches thick for steps. This thickness boosts stability and prevents cracking and deterioration. After you&rsquo;ve built your forms out of wood, fill the void with a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/does-anybody-use-sand-base-they-pour-concrete-driveway.htm">sand or gravel base for concrete</a>. Use an all-purpose concrete mix to form your steps. After pouring your concrete steps, be sure to screed and float the concrete. </p></div>

Q: Is it cheaper to build a brick or concrete patio?

• <div><p>It is generally cheaper to build a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/brick-vs-flagstone-patio.htm">concrete patio versus a brick patio</a>. Basic concrete costs around <b>$8 to $15 per square foot</b>, while a brick patio typically ranges from <b>$10 to $20 per square foot</b>. The cost difference comes down to both materials and labor&mdash;pouring and finishing concrete is faster than placing each brick by hand. Brick pavers look great and last long, but they&rsquo;ll cost more up front. If you&rsquo;re looking to keep your budget in check without sacrificing function, concrete is usually the more cost-effective choice.</p></div>

Q: Does installing a patio improve home value?

• <div><p>Yes, installing a patio will usually improve home value, as outdoor entertainment areas are usually quite desirable and make your home more visually appealing. A paver patio usually comes with an impressive ROI of around 80%, while concrete patios should fall between 60% and 70%. Paver patios are considered more desirable and valuable because most home buyers prefer how they look, and they won&rsquo;t raise your property taxes as a permanent concrete patio would.</p></div>

Q: Are concrete porches less expensive than wood?

• <div><p>A concrete porch costs about $2 to $10 per square foot upfront, while a wood porch costs about $4 to $30 per square foot, making concrete less expensive upfront. However, wood requires much more maintenance than concrete, so you&rsquo;ll need to consider the costs of staining, painting, and resealing the porch every few years, which makes wood more expensive in the long run.</p></div>
