Which is better: epoxy or concrete stain?

• <div><p>Epoxy coatings for concrete basement or garage floors are popular. These two-part resinous coatings are waterproof and highly durable, making them an ideal choice for high-traffic spaces or areas where spills are likely. However, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/epoxy-flooring-costs-advantages-and-installation.htm">epoxy flooring costs</a> more to apply than concrete stains and doesn't produce a natural-looking finish.</p></div>

Q: How to stop concrete from going green?

• <div><p>The prevention steps are essentially the same, no matter the patio material. Keep the surface clean and maintained. Ensure there's no debris buildup, and cover the whole thing in a quality sealant. If it's the start of a season or it's been a while since you've cleaned the area, use a pressure washer. </p></div>

Q: Can I pour self-leveling concrete over concrete?

• <div><p>Yes&mdash;as long as the area has been properly prepped. Different self-leveling brands and compounds have their own specific instructions for preparation; some may require that you add primer or grind the surface. Without proper preparation of the surface, the compound will not be able to fully bond to the concrete and fill the cure as a separate layer, which makes it prone to chipping.</p></div>

Q: What chemicals are used to bond old concrete to new concrete?

• <div><p>You'll find a slurry of natural and synthetic polymers, rubbers, epoxies, and resins used to bond old concrete to new concrete. The right bonding agent depends on the method of concrete pouring you choose and whether you're adhering concrete over concrete or concrete over sand and gravel. Some concrete resurfacing mixtures contain bonding chemicals as well. </p></div>

Q: What services do cement companies offer?

• <div><p>Cement companies offer a wide variety of services, including delivering and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-do-contractors-pour-solid-concrete-foundations.htm">pouring concrete for home foundations</a>, walkways, patios, driveways, concrete steps, pools, pool decks, and more, plus concrete repair and patching. Most companies also have the ability to demolish and haul away old concrete landscaping features. It&rsquo;s a good idea to reach out to a few different companies before hiring to make sure you choose one that can tackle the entirety of the project you have from start to finish. This method will typically save you some money over hiring multiple contractors. </p></div>

These guys are real professionals. The product is high quality, and the installers were great. They finished the entire house and basement in one day. And they cleaned up after each window.

We've got Brazilian cherry floors that had been finished with a dark gloss. Gordon and his crew took extra care to remove all of the old finish, provide a natural satin finish and cleanup afterwards. We're delighted with the job and would recommend Gordon highly.

"Jas" came out and gave me a bid for a retaining wall by a deck. Gave me options for rock, paver, and concrete. We chose rock for aesthetics and price. He came back about 3 weeks later on a particularly soggy November day. He and his workman worked all day long building the retaining wall....

Smooth as glass. The owner, his wife and one of his sons came by the same day that I called, appraised the work to be done, took a deposit, put the sofa in their truck and promised it would be repaired and returned within a week. It was finished and returned in three days.

Kept my dog all day, which seemed too long. He's very furry, so maybe he took a long time to dry. I had to call them at the end of the day to find out if he was ready for pickup. He was in a cage when I arrived, which upset both of us, as I would have preferred to be there & wait for him to be...
