Will vinegar remove old concrete sealant?

• <div><p>Vinegar has become popular because it’s wallet-friendly, easy to find, and sounds like a great alternative to harsh chemicals and expensive machinery. However, vinegar isn’t strong enough to remove concrete sealant. Sealants can resist acid, and vinegar is a much weaker acid than chemical removal agents. And worse, vinegar can damage concrete by dulling it and causing pitting.</p></div>

Q: Will vinegar remove old concrete sealant?

• <div><p>Vinegar has become popular because it&rsquo;s wallet-friendly, easy to find, and sounds like a great alternative to harsh chemicals and expensive machinery. However, vinegar isn&rsquo;t strong enough to remove concrete sealant. Sealants can resist acid, and vinegar is a much weaker acid than chemical removal agents. And worse, vinegar can damage concrete by dulling it and causing pitting.</p></div>

Q: How do contractors cut a doorway in a concrete block wall?

• <div><p>First, most contractors will have a structural engineer create a report and plan for your project to ensure it&rsquo;s safe to cut into the load-bearing wall. The contractor will then excavate around the wall, if necessary, measure the opening&mdash;allowing for additional space to fit and level the door, and then cut the doorway out. They will likely install a steel lintel as a header over the door for support. Once the doorway is cut out, they&rsquo;ll demolish the concrete using sledge hammers and masonry chisels, clean up the surrounding concrete, and seal around the door with masonry mortar. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to remove tile flooring?

• <div><p>If you remove tile flooring yourself, it can take eight to 12 hours per 100 square feet. The exact time it takes depends on the type of tile, its location, and your experience with removing tile flooring. On the other hand, professionals with the right tools can remove tile flooring in as little as one hour per square foot. </p></div>

Q: Do services include ground preparation for new concrete?

• <div><p>Yes, most professional services offer ground leveling and preparation for new installations.</p></div>

Q: Can I pull the fence post out with a truck?

• <div><p>While it&rsquo;s possible to remove a fence post with a truck and requires little physical effort, we don&rsquo;t recommend this method. You can potentially hurt others or yourself or damage your property or vehicle attempting to take a fence post out with a truck. Instead, use a farm jack or a pole puller to remove the post.</p></div>

Wanted a concrete pad but Derek noted major drainage problems. He removed grass and dirt and graded and installed new sod plus the pad. I am very pleased with the work as is the neighborhood!
