FAQs
Installation time depends on the size of the project, removal of existing concrete, access, ground conditions and weather. Construction time and the curing period before the surface returns to use are not the same. Confirm the proposed schedule, entrance access and return-to-use guidance during your consultation.
Keep steps clear of debris and watch for new cracks, loose edges or water collecting against the concrete. Cleaning, de-icing and any sealing should suit the selected concrete finish and product guidance. Ask for an aftercare plan for your installation rather than assuming every surface needs the same sealing schedule.
Any exterior walkway can become slippery when wet, icy or covered with debris. Discuss an appropriate textured finish and drainage when planning the installation. A surface finish does not remove the need for winter maintenance, snow clearance and care in slippery conditions.
