Frequently Asked Questions

How thick should a patio cover's concrete be?
A concrete patio must be at least four inches thick. If the patio will support a structure such as a gazebo or hot tub, make it six to eight inches thick.

How Do You Determine Concrete Strength?
Concrete strength may be measured by scientists using compression and flexural mechanical strength tests. On average, strength is determined by the water-to-cement ratio and the quality of the ingredients used in the cement.

How Long Does it Take for Concrete to Cure?
It all relies on the depth of the concrete, the outside temperature, and the type of cement used in the mix. However, on average, it takes around 2-3 hours to set and about 7 days to fully cure. It will then continue to grow in strength for around 28 days.

Is it necessary to maintain concrete?
While concrete is very durable on its own, there are certain things you can do to keep it in excellent condition: During the winter, avoid using deicing agents. To erase stains, avoid using strong acids. To preserve your concrete from the weather, clean it on a regular basis and apply a sealant.

Is it normal to crack?
Because concrete is not flexible, it is prone to cracking during freeze/thaw cycles. This is quite natural, and minor fractures will not impair the strength of the concrete. These fissures can be repaired by inserting "joints" or adding a fibrous substance to the region.

Is it possible to recycle concrete?
With concrete, recycling occurs from start to finish. Many wastes and industrial byproducts (such as ash or furnace slag) can be mixed into concrete, reducing the need for raw resources. When concrete reaches the end of its useful life, it can be recycled for a number of purposes.

How does paving work?
It is the process of constructing a road or driveway by laying down substantial lengths of asphalt or concrete bricks. Every length of asphalt is supported by a base, which is often constructed of compacted gravel, which not only supports the asphalt but also prevents water from collecting.

What are the materials used to make paving slabs and stones?
This will vary depending on the type of paving stone you have, however they are typically constructed of concrete. Other elements are commonly added to concrete to modify its color or to sustain it at different temperatures.

Is it necessary to seal paving stones?
This procedure is advised because concrete is a porous substance, and when water enters these pores, it causes them to expand and contract as temperatures vary. This causes the water to swell and may cause harm. Sealing your new pavement six to twelve months after installation can prevent this from happening, and this time range is suggested since it allows your pavement to settle.

How long do retaining walls last?
How long will my retaining wall last? The average lifespan of permanent wall construction is 50 to 100 years. This is dependent on the soil and groundwater conditions at your location.

Is a retaining wall required to have a footing?
For bigger retaining walls, a subsurface structural footing is generally necessary. A landscaper pours concrete below the frost line to produce this (the depth to which the ground will freeze during the winter).

How deep should a retaining wall footing be?
The depth to the base slab's bottom should be kept to a minimum of two feet. It should, however, always be below the seasonal frost line, which is sometimes significantly deeper in northern regions.

How do you calculate the height of a retaining wall?
Divide the overall length of the wall by the length of the block to determine how many blocks you'll need each row. Divide the appropriate wall height by the height of the block to get how many rows you'll need.

What factors contribute to concrete failure?
Carbonation and chloride contamination of the concrete are the two most prevalent reasons of failure. Both of these cause corrosion of the embedded steel reinforcement, and as the steel corrodes, it expands and exerts pressure on the concrete, causing cracking and spalling.

Should crack or corroded concrete stairs be fixed or replaced?
Crack filler can be used to repair damaged staircases. Remove the broken areas of concrete and apply a rapid-setting filler that may be molded and sculpted along edges and corners if huge chunks of concrete are crumbling away.

If many steps are beyond repair, use a sledgehammer or jackhammer to remove them, then reframe and repour the damaged stairs.
