Is thicker concrete less likely to crack?

• <div><p>Yes, thicker concrete is less likely to crack. The thicker the concrete is, the less susceptible it is to extreme changes in weather conditions that often cause concrete to crack or chip. If you’re unable to install a thicker concrete driveway for any reason, you can also ask your professional to install more rebar or wire mesh to provide greater strength and better resilience to damage. </p></div>

What are alternatives to a brick wall?

• <div><p>If you've decided you'd like to skip the cost of restoring a brick exterior wall after considering whether you should <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/repair-vs-replace-brick-on-house.htm">repair or replace brick on your house</a>, you can consider installing fiber cement siding over brick for a cost of <b>$2 to $6</b> per square foot. When done properly, cement siding over brick offers a durable, low-maintenance option that can actually reduce your home's energy costs. It's also attractive. However, improper installation or installation over heavily compromised brick can cause water damage. </p></div>

Q: Do masons pour concrete?

• <div><p>In most cases, yes, masons can build concrete forms and pour concrete for a variety of home improvement projects, including foundation pouring. Some masons may prefer to focus on more aesthetic and artistic masonry work, like building retaining walls, crafting custom fireplaces, tiling, or installing stucco siding, but most also have experience pouring concrete. You can always <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/questions-ask-masonry-contractor.htm">ask your masonry contractor</a> if they also handle poured concrete projects.</p></div>

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: What are the most important questions to ask a concrete contractor?

• <div><p>Do some research before hiring a concrete contractor . Consider asking whether the contractor is insured, if they can provide references of past clients you can contact, and if this type of work requires a permit. Another potential question is how long they guarantee their work.</p></div>

They seemed to get everything wrong. There were holes in the out- side wall and boards that didn't reach etc. Boards weren't sanded , one board still had the staple and tag on it from the lumber store. Do not expect much.

Antonio and his crew are wonderful to work with. They redid our driveway retaining walls with a beautiful stacked natural fieldstone. Communication of the scope and budget was very clear and there were no surprises. The workmanship is top notch. I highly recommend Bolani Masonry.

The measurement for the shower was wrong I'm still waiting for them to come back to look at the problem and put a finish on the one wall. Instead of it being one inch from my door the one wall is right up to my door jamb without a finished look.
