Will my freshly poured concrete wall crack?

• <div><p>Newly poured concrete is prone to small, fine cracks within the first 30 days of installation, but <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/does-freshly-poured-concrete-normally-crack.htm">most noticeable cracks will disappear</a> within that time frame. If a crack is greater than 1 inch, consider contacting the person who installed your wall to inspect the job. </p></div>

Q: What outdoor flooring is not slippery?

• <div><p>Outdoor kitchens get wet and are sometimes next to pools. To avoid accidents, go with a non-slip material like concrete, brick, or rubber. Avoid materials like ceramic and porcelain, as they are known to be quite slippery. Wood and composite flooring can be slippery if untreated, so make sure to stain or finish these materials.</p></div>

Q: Is it more expensive to maintain a concrete or asphalt driveway?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/asphalt-driveway-repair-cost.htm">cost of asphalt driveway repair</a> is usually similar to the cost of average concrete driveway repairs, but maintaining asphalt tends to be less expensive on a per-instance basis. For example, resurfacing asphalt costs about $1 less per square foot, but it doesn&rsquo;t last as long as concrete and will need more frequent repairs. An asphalt driveway lasts 20 to 25 years, but a well-maintained concrete driveway can last twice as long, so the maintenance costs and timeline even out. </p></div>

Q: Are concrete homes fireproof?

• <div><p>Concrete homes have better fire resistance because this material is highly resistant to fire and heat. But any paint, siding, windows, roofing, or other materials on a concrete home may still be flammable. Never try to stay in a building with a large, active fire or a wildfire approaching because this can still be deadly. However, building a fireproof home with concrete can better protect the structure against total destruction.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to grind concrete wet or dry?

• <div><p>For homeowners, it&rsquo;s better to dry grind concrete. Dry grinding is the method described above and can be done by experienced DIYers for smaller projects. Wet grinding requires a big volume of water, a way to collect the slurry created by the water and dust, and an environmentally-safe place to dispose of the slurry. In general, only professionals do wet grinding. </p></div>
