How long do concrete houses last?

• <div><p>Concrete houses will last for between 75 and 150 years, depending on the environmental factors in your area. Unlike lumber in stick-built houses, concrete doesn’t rot, and it’s more resistant to wildfires and earthquake damage, so you’ll almost always get a longer lifespan from a concrete house than you would a traditionally framed one.</p></div>

Q: Should pole barn posts be set in concrete?

• <div><p>Whether pole barn posts should be set in concrete depends on the soil surrounding your home. If your soil is compact and digging conditions are agreeable, then setting pole barn posts in concrete is an ideal option. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take concrete floors to fully settle?

• <div><p>Concrete can take years to fully settle, but interior concrete floors are mostly settled after a year. Shifting and settling can occur throughout your home&rsquo;s life, but most major settling happens the first few years after the concrete is poured. It&rsquo;s not uncommon for minor cracks to appear in concrete floors over time&mdash;check with a concrete pro to ensure new cracks don&rsquo;t indicate a structural issue in your home. </p></div>

Q: Do you need a footing under a Lally column?

• <div><p>Lally columns do require some kind of footing to ensure they have a strong enough base to provide the support they need to deliver, and, at the very least, they need to attach to the floor below. Some contractors will just use the existing foundation as a footing for temporary Lally columns, while some circumstances demand that the expert install a new footing. You might need a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/structural-engineers/">local structural engineer</a> to weigh in on which is best for your project.</p></div>

Q: What happens if there is too much moisture in concrete?

• <div><p>If the moisture level in your concrete flooring is higher than what is acceptable for your primer or flooring materials, then you are looking at dealing with major flooring issues down the road. From mold and mildew, to warping, buckling, bubbling, and soft spots, you could see a wide range of moisture-induced problems.</p><p>These issues can affect not just your flooring but your foundation too. That is why measuring moisture in concrete is so important before starting a project.</p></div>

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.

He had a lot of projects going and used my driveway project as a fill-in. Grading and prep took several weeks. The concrete driveway, in the end, was worth the wait.
