Frequently Asked Questions.
Your Concrete Questions, Answered.
How do I remove ice from my driveway?
Use sand for traction. If you must use salt or ice melt, let it sit briefly, then clear it off to prevent long-term damage to the concrete surface.
How often should I reseal colored stamped concrete?
Reseal every few years to protect against moisture and weather-related wear, especially with freeze-thaw cycles.
How can I tell if my concrete needs to be resealed?
If water no longer beads on the surface, it’s time to reseal.
What should I do if my exterior concrete cracks?
Applying a sealant can help prevent further cracking and extend the life of your concrete.
What if there’s a crack in my foundation wall?
We recommend an epoxy injection to seal and reinforce the crack.
What if I don’t have a sump pump and water collects in my basement?
Installing a drainage system at the footing level can help. This can be done inside by breaking up and replacing the floor or outside by digging a trench around the foundation.
How can I prevent foundation failure?
Ensure proper grading around your home so water drains away. Poor drainage causes soil expansion, which puts pressure on foundation walls.
