Frequently Asked Questions About J.D. James Construction
Are concrete and cement the same thing?
They are not the same thing, although many use the terms interchangeably. Cement is used to make concrete. Cement is mixed with other things, including water, and it then turns into a hardened mass called concrete.
What kind of decorative finishes can I get for concrete?
Concrete is available in almost any shape, pattern, and color. There are many specialty materials available, such as concrete forms, stamps, dyes, texture patterns, stains, and more. These applications can be used both inside and outside of your home. If you can imagine the decorative finish, our highly experienced and skilled staff can bring it to life!
Do I need a concrete contractor for my project?
Concrete work requires knowledge and skill. There are fundamental skills that the average homeowner does not have. Advanced and basic skills that are required include using a hammer, chalk lines, and saws; however, more specialized skills include the use of straightedge, a concrete edger, a hand float, and applying finishes. Besides the use of tools, other areas of expertise include site excavation, preparing the subgrade, putting in concrete forms, and installing installation. When you add these tasks to the proper placement and finishing of concrete, it can make for very difficult work. Also, concrete is quite heavy and the timing of finishing the project is critical. For all of these reasons and more, most homeowners feel that it is necessary to hire a qualified experienced concrete contractor to do their concrete project.
How long does a concrete driveway or patio need to cure?
The recommended time can be anywhere from five to ten days, depending on the load that will be on it. Ask your concrete contractor for specific directions on when your driveway or patio can be put back in service.
Why is curing important for concrete?
Curing keeps concrete at the appropriate moisture content. Proper curing also prevents cracking and shrinking and adds decades to the life of concrete.
How do I maintain concrete?
Concrete needs to be frequently cleaned by sweeping. It should also be hosed off every so often. Keep wet leaves off of concrete as they may stain the surface.
