Q: How thick should a concrete patio be?

• <div><p>Most standard concrete patios are around 4 inches deep. However, concrete patios that need to support very heavy items, like a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/8-tips-installing-indoor-hot-tub.htm">hot tub</a> or outdoor kitchen, should be around 6 inches thick to support the full weight of these items. You'll also want to make sure you install rebar for patios that need to support a lot of weight like this. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to build a concrete driveway?

• <div><p>Building a concrete driveway normally takes between one and three days, including the time to cure the concrete. Wait at least seven days <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-before-drive-on-concrete.htm">before driving on your driveway</a> and two days before walking on it. Your contractor may require additional time if you need to level the ground, install a drainage system, or order special concrete materials. Installing a driveway also often requires a permit, so be sure to include this wait into your prep time as well.</p></div>

Q: Does a walkway add value to your home?

• <div><p>Installing a walkway to your home can add value, as it can make your landscaping look more intentionally designed and boost your overall curb appeal. In addition, walkways can be installed with accessibility in mind, which can be helpful for those with mobility issues or who need a wheelchair.</p></div>

Q: Can a concrete patio be too thick?

• <div><p>In most cases, you&rsquo;ll want your patio to be 4 inches thick, although you should add reinforcement and increase the thickness up to around 8 inches if you want it to support heavier loads and resist cracking more readily. Although thicker slabs will cost more, you&rsquo;ll start seeing diminishing returns at around 6 inches.</p></div>

Q: Should I repair or replace crumbling concrete steps before adding a railing?

• <div><p>Crumbling concrete steps will affect your ability to drill into the material and affix a sturdy railing. If the damage is primarily cosmetic, you might be able to DIY the repair with a patch kit. If the concrete is badly crumbling, hire a professional who specializes in pouring concrete. The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-repair-chipped-broken-concrete-step-steps-lead-front-door.htm">concrete step repair cost</a> is <b>$500</b> from a professional, but the extent of the damage will determine your actual cost. The professional may recommend a replacement if the damage is extensive.</p></div>
