"This review is long overdue. Ray White Cement poured two patio sections for us in the back yard. They tied it in to the house foundation and the existing patio with rebar. They put a couple of drains in it, with shiners around the perimeter and stress relief lines and a rock salt finish. It was colored concrete which didn't quite match the existing patio after fully curing, but close enough. They took care to slope it at several different angles for drainage, which I wouldn't have even thought of. They even took time to grind down a raised edge (trip hazard) on my driveway that had been pushed up by a root. My only issue was one small area that doesn't drain the right way, but not a big deal and I never bothered them about it. Throughout the project they were very professional, organized and efficient."

"The owner Manny gave me the best value quote of the 5-6 contractors that reached out to me without even knowing what the others bid. In addition, he promised one day service which immediately moved him to the top choice. Given that his quote was lower than others had me concerned he would cheap out on materials and/or the quality would be poor but given his rating I had to give it a shot and I am glad I did because it looks great and was complete in less than a week after signing the estimate. I never thought I would be this excited about concrete. I have been contemplating doing this extension to my driveway/walkway for over a year and wished I had pulled the trigger sooner. My only recommendation when comparing contractors is make sure you are comparing apples-to-apples. Starting in 2022 I believe code asks for 6" thick for a driveway so some contractors will give you quotes for 6" and some for 4". For me 6" seemed like overkill for my use since my current driveway is only 4" and the area I put concrete is mainly for aesthetics and to help make it easier to roll out the garbage bins. It will be used sparingly for a light vehicle. If you plan on maybe putting an RV or something heavy like a F350 then you may want to go 6" but that is why a good contractor will ask you how it will be used and make a recommendation that meets your needs and not just give you the most expensive choice. In addition, the fact he has been in business over 40yrs says something."

A properly installed concrete slab can last anywhere from 30 to 100 years. Factors that impact its lifespan include timely repairs of cracks or breaks, local weather conditions, and the type of concrete used. Consulting with a local concrete contractor can give you a more accurate estimate based on your area's climate.
Concrete takes 26 to 30 days to cure to its full strength. After 24 to 48 hours, a 4-inch concrete slab is solid enough to walk on without leaving footprints. After seven days, it should be cured to at least 70% of its full strength. Proper curing is essential for the slab's durability and longevity.
Maintaining your concrete slab properly extends its life and keeps it looking its best. Regularly clean away dirt and debris, and promptly remove stains and spills like car oil or fertilizers. Avoid using harsh chemicals or de-icers that can damage the concrete. Keep heavy machinery and oversized vehicles off your driveway, and consider sealing your concrete to renew its appearance. Remember that while concrete is strong and durable, it isn't designed to support extremely heavy loads without proper reinforcement.
Choosing between a precast concrete slab and pouring concrete on-site depends on your project's size and location. Precast slabs are poured off-site and delivered ready to install, which can save time and ensure consistent quality. However, for larger areas or sites with access limitations, pouring concrete on-site may be more practical. Discuss your options with a local concrete contractor to determine the best choice for your project.
A concrete floor differs from a concrete slab in both its finish and function. A concrete floor is an indoor surface that is polished, coated, or stained for enhanced aesthetics and durability, while a concrete slab is an unfinished base designed to support structures such as sheds, garages, or patios. The finishing process adds visual appeal and protection for interior use, making it suitable for everyday living spaces. Each application is tailored to its intended environment and performance requirements.
When pouring a concrete slab, you must account for extra costs beyond the base price. Additional expenses include reinforcement additions, decorative enhancements like staining or stamping, drainage installation, and permit fees required by local regulations. These factors impact the overall project cost and should be discussed with a professional to ensure an accurate budget.
