Q: How long do I need to stay off of concrete after sealing?

• <div><p>As a general rule of thumb, allow 24 hours for penetrating sealers to cure and at least 48 hours of drying time for most topical sealers. Always check the instructions for the sealing product you&rsquo;re using to determine the drying time.</p></div>

Q: What is making my concrete green?

• <div><p>If your concrete stains are green in color, it indicates the presence of mold or algae&mdash;which you should address right away. If left unattended, mold will spread to other areas throughout the home. However, be careful not to disturb mold on indoor concrete surfaces and work with a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/mold-removal/">local mold remediation specialist</a> for specialized care. Once free from mold and algae, seal your concrete to eliminate pores and gaps.</p></div>

Q: Do you set aluminum fence posts in concrete?

• <div><p>Yes, it's typically best to set aluminum fence posts in concrete. You can technically use a mix of gravel and soil instead, but concrete is more stable and secure. Concrete also lasts longer and does a much better job of withstanding the outdoor elements than a gravel or soil mix.</p></div>

Q: How long does it typically take to pour and finish concrete surfaces?

• <div><p>Usually 2-3 days, plus additional curing time before full use.</p></div>

"I live in an antebellum house, built in 1837. Over the past 175 years some of the bricks underneath the fireplace in the living room and gathering room had crumbled. The floor needed repairs and leveling. I contacted 4 companies to evaluate the problem and develop a solution. Luke Griffin, with Mr. Foundation, was the only person who actually went under the house and took pictures of the problem for us to see. We were able to see what was happening at the fireplaces. He then studied the problem and the next day offered us a solution. They came and installed steel beams with stainless steel jacks, leveled the floors and resolved the problem. I tell people an elephant now could jump up and down on the floors. Would I recommend Mr. Foundation?? 100%!!! And, FYI, their price was considerably less than two of the other companies."
