How much basement wall bowing is acceptable?

• <div><p>Generally, a wall can bow up to 30% of its thickness, or around 2.5 inches for an 8-inch-thick structure, before it becomes an urgent situation. If your basement wall bows more than 1 inch, it's time to have a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-inspect-your-basement.htm">basement inspection</a> to determine if a repair is necessary, depending on the soil conditions and structural specifics. Walls nearing 4 inches of bowing will require significant repairs. More than 6 inches of bowing usually means the wall will need replacing. </p></div>

Is thicker concrete less likely to crack?

• <div><p>Yes, thicker concrete is less likely to crack. The thicker the concrete is, the less susceptible it is to extreme changes in weather conditions that often cause concrete to crack or chip. If you’re unable to install a thicker concrete driveway for any reason, you can also ask your professional to install more rebar or wire mesh to provide greater strength and better resilience to damage. </p></div>

Q: Do masons pour concrete?

• <div><p>In most cases, yes, masons can build concrete forms and pour concrete for a variety of home improvement projects, including foundation pouring. Some masons may prefer to focus on more aesthetic and artistic masonry work, like building retaining walls, crafting custom fireplaces, tiling, or installing stucco siding, but most also have experience pouring concrete. You can always <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/questions-ask-masonry-contractor.htm">ask your masonry contractor</a> if they also handle poured concrete projects.</p></div>

Q: How do you prevent concrete cracks from forming?

• <div><p>Unfortunately, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-prevent-concrete-cracks.htm">concrete cracks happen</a>, so there&rsquo;s no surefire way to avoid them long-term. To slow down the cracking, apply a sealant every two to three years and use sand rather than salt to melt snow or ice. Using salt speeds up the freeze-thaw cycle, which may increase the likelihood of cracking. Additionally, keep vehicles and heavy machinery off of your concrete, as the weight can lead to more cracking.</p></div>

Q: Can you pour concrete when it freezes at night?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to pour concrete if the temperatures are expected to dip below freezing at night, but you need to take some special precautions before you do. Most importantly, you need to make sure your concrete won&rsquo;t freeze, so the best thing to do is enclose the area and heat it. You should also make sure you&rsquo;re using cold-weather concrete that&rsquo;s designed for pouring in cold weather. Use accelerants to help speed up the curing process and avoid cold temperatures from resulting in weak concrete. </p></div>

H&M did an excellent job. Walls and ceilings were peeling off and they fixed it and painted it. See the before and after photos. They have also done plumbing work and lots of other projects.

Replaced a concrete slab on my driveway. Two years later the slab had a crack in it and the top later of the concrete is peeling away. Terrible job. Sloppy work. Now I have to hire another contractor to re surface the slab.

"They will change the contract, promise a refund and never send it. They also will not respond to inquiries. Promised call backs that never happen. Promised call from manager, never received. We had the work done in May and they are still keeping my money as of August. If they change the work order do not pay the full amount unless you get a new contract. I made the mistake of trusting them."
