Q: How long do fence posts last in concrete?

• <div><p>A fence post set in concrete lasts anywhere from five to over 25 years, depending on how well the concrete was applied and the fence post&rsquo;s material. Untreated wood posts in concrete could last less than 10 years, but a durable, treated wood set in properly applied concrete could last a few decades. However, all fence posts will wear out eventually, so expect to need to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-replace-a-fence-post.htm">replace your fence post</a> every five to 15 years.</p></div>

Q: Are fiberglass pools cheaper than concrete pools?

• <div><p>When looking into <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/are-fiberglass-pools-better-concrete.htm">fiberglass vs. concrete pools</a>, you will notice a big price difference. A fiberglass pool costs $15,000 to $75,000, whereas a concrete pool costs $35,000 to $100,000. While concrete pools are customizable, fiberglass is faster to install and requires less maintenance. Additionally, you can expect to pay $25,000 to maintain a concrete pool over a ten-year span. On the other hand, a fiberglass pool only requires basic maintenance like testing water levels and cleaning.</p></div>

Q: Can I finish concrete myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for basic finishes. Professional services ensure a polished, durable result for decorative or complex finishes.</p></div>

Q: Does a pergola need to be on concrete?

• <div><p>A pergola needs to be anchored, and typically, concrete is the best anchor option. Pergolas should be anchored to a concrete slab or concrete footings, and this is commonly required by municipal building codes. When applying for a permit to install a pergola, be sure to check the anchoring requirements as well.</p></div>

Q: How can you tell if a concrete job is bad?

• <div><p>Visible cracks, scaling, flaking, and uneven surfaces indicate a bad concrete job. Additional signs vary depending on the project. You may notice poor drainage or even exposed rebar. Quality issues result from using the wrong concrete, rushing the work, or inexperienced workers completing the job.</p></div>
