Q: Will Quikrete set without mixing?

• <div><p>Quikrete will set without mixing. The process of pouring dry concrete into your concrete form and then adding water is called dry pouring. While this method makes pouring concrete simpler and easier, it reduces its strength and durability. It can be a viable option for small, decorative concrete pavers for walkways or for setting fence posts, but it&rsquo;s not ideal for pouring slabs that will bear any significant amount of weight.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between stucco and mortar?

• <div><p>Mortar, or masonry mortar, is mainly used in joints and as parging for stone, brick, or cement construction. Stucco is primarily a surface material used as wall coverings. For maintenance, masonry will need repointing or replacing as damage or land shifting occurs, whereas stucco will need patching or refinishing as it tends to crack over time along with other types of wear-and-tear.</p></div>

Q: What’s the easiest way to remove stucco?

• <div><p>The easiest way to remove stucco is to use a circular saw with a diamond blade to cut small squares out, pry them off, and then cut the metal lath behind it with tin snips. It&rsquo;s possible to do everything with a hammer and a crowbar, but it will take significantly longer and will wear you out more quickly. Plus, you&rsquo;ll have a higher risk of damaging windows, hidden siding, and sheathing if you go the less precise route.</p></div>

Q: What size drill bit should I use for stucco?

• <div><p>You can use small bits that are up to 3/8 inch in diameter, or larger bits that are 1/2 inch or more in diameter. Make sure the bits you use are coated with carbide or diamond; this information is usually visible on the package. You can also use hole saw bits to drill into stucco.</p></div>

Q: What are the main alternatives to aluminum siding?

• <div><p>Aluminum siding isn't the only type of siding material on the market for giving your home's exterior a makeover. Alternatives to aluminum siding include vinyl siding, wood siding, composite siding, and brick veneer siding. Each siding material comes with strengths and weaknesses that could influence your decision based on your particular circumstances, so it's important to look into each type as they pertain to your home and lifestyle before deciding.</p><p>A popular competitor to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/aluminum-vs-vinyl-siding.htm">aluminum siding is vinyl siding</a>, which has a similar price and is lower maintenance but comes with a shorter life span.</p></div>

Wanted to stucco the bricks and we asked about a clear sealer which they would check into. They did not have a clear sealer. The estimate cost $100, a bit high. The repair estimate was $850 minus the $100. We found a company that did have a clear sealer for the bricks.
