Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How long should I wait before using the surface after new concrete installation?
You should usually wait at least 24 to 48 hours before walking on fresh concrete and around 7 days before letting light vehicles drive on it. It might take up to 28 days for the whole cure to happen, which gives it the most strength. We will help you every step of the way so you know when it's safe to use.
What are the common uses for concrete slab installation in Champaign?
Concrete slabs are used in Champaign for garages, sheds, patios, and house extensions. They are a cheap method to make a strong, level base for a lot of different projects. We make sure they are level and appropriately strengthened to fulfill local demands.
How durable is driveway concrete installation in Illinois’ freeze-thaw climate?
Very strong, but only if done well. We use concrete that is strong and has air bubbles in it to keep it from cracking and becoming damaged by the freezing and thawing cycles that happen a lot in Illinois. We also use the right methods for curing and sealing to keep your investment safe.
How do you ensure patio concrete installation drains properly to prevent pooling?
We grade and slope your patio construction so that water drains away from your property and doesn't pool in low regions. Proper drainage keeps your area safe and useful after heavy rain or snowmelt and stops erosion. It's all about the prep, and we always get it right.
Is a concrete floor resistant to scratches, stains, and everyday wear?
Yes, especially if it is done and sealed correctly. Our concrete floors are tough enough to handle a lot of use, spills, and foot traffic. We also have protective coatings that make things more resistant and make cleaning easier.
