Which gravel can you harden into a solid surface?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-decomposed-granite.htm">Decomposed granite</a> and caliche can both harden into a solid surface using a plate compactor. However, due to decomposed granite’s fine particles, it’s not suitable for driveway surfaces. Some homeowners use pea gravel mixed with a gravel-binding resin to bind the loose stones and create a solid surface that won’t shift like loose gravel.</p></div>

Q: How long does a concrete patio last on average?

• <div><p>A concrete patio lasts an average of 30 years, but the length of life you&rsquo;ll get from yours depends largely on the climate. In harsh conditions, including excessive rainfall and snowfall, a concrete patio may only last for 15 years. In a moderate climate and with non-expansive, supportive soil below, a concrete patio could last for up to 50 years.</p></div>

Q: How long does precast concrete last?

• <div><p>Precast concrete can last from 50 to 100 years or more. Precast concrete may have a longer lifespan than cast-in-place concrete due to the controlled curing conditions and lack of environmental exposure during the curing process. Properly maintaining and regularly inspecting your precast concrete can help extend its life and keep it in good condition for decades. </p></div>

Q: What size gravel should you put under a concrete slab?

• <div><p>You should put gravel that is 3/4 to 1 inch under a concrete slab. However, depending on the project, local building codes may dictate the proper gravel size and shape. Some concrete slabs that do not hold significant weight may have a subbase of sand. Also, keep in mind that the subbase you choose will affect the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-concrete-patio-cost-square-foot.htm">cost of your concrete patio</a>, walkway, or driveway. </p></div>

Q: How long do concrete pools last?

• <div><p>A well-built and well-maintained concrete pool should last anywhere from 50 to 75 years. Concrete is prone to cracking, so winterization and regular pool repairs are particularly important. Water can seep into existing cracks, freeze, and make them worse. Most homeowners should resurface their concrete every few years to maintain their pool&rsquo;s lifespan. </p></div>
