John, owner of Frogiero Contracting, is an expert in concrete work. Day 1 - excavation: John came with a full crew, bobcat, and demolition removal truck. Day 2 - concrete pour. Relief joints were all very well done. John even cut a straight line on the joining concrete at no extra charge.

It was a big job and quite messy, as concrete being ripped up can be. The end result was a new surface, and new sidewalk, with the proper grade so the rain drains toward the road and not the house. It was done last year 2017, and with all the rain we've had the past 2 weeks, we are very pleased...

The two craftsmen who did the work were amazing! They arrived promptly every day, worked extremely hard, and did absolutely beautiful work.

Concrete Driveways questions, answered by experts

Yes, using water when drilling concrete can help keep dust from clogging the hole and prevent your drill bit from wearing out, although you don’t need to spray water on the concrete while drilling. Water can also lubricate the bit and help keep it cool since drilling into concrete can generate a lot of friction and heat.

Most of the time, you or your contractor will spray the concrete form and framework with a release agent or oil to prevent sticking. This is common practice with wood and steel forms. For insulated concrete forms, the styrofoam formwork often remains in place after construction, so you don’t need to treat it beforehand. Foam concrete forms made out of melamine also may not need treatment beforehand, as the material naturally won’t stick to the concrete after it’s cured.

Yes, you can remove oil stains from your driveway by applying an absorbent material such as baking soda, sawdust, or cat litter, pouring on a liquid detergent such as dish soap, scrubbing the area, and rinsing with water. You can also use a diluted bleach solution, white vinegar, or TSP solution on concrete.

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.

A concrete patio lasts an average of 30 years, but the length of life you’ll get from yours depends largely on the climate. In harsh conditions, including excessive rainfall and snowfall, a concrete patio may only last for 15 years. In a moderate climate and with non-expansive, supportive soil below, a concrete patio could last for up to 50 years.

By submitting this question, I acknowledge and agree that Angi may publicly display my name, city, state, and question on the website for professionals and others to see.
