concrete services: frequently asked questions
What's the difference between concrete and cement? It's as simple as a matter of part to whole. Cement is just one ingredient in the mixture we call concrete. Concrete is a mixture of paste and aggregate materials like sand or gravel. The paste is water and cement. Cement only makes up about a tenth of the total mix. As the cement and water combine and harden, the concrete sets, only becoming stronger as time goes on. The type of cement used in almost all concretes is called portland cement.
How is the strength of concrete controlled? When our concrete needs more strength, we simply add cement. The more water is in the mix, the weaker the concrete mixture will be. The more cement that is in the cement-water paste, the more securely the aggregates will be bound together.
What can harm concrete and how do you protect it? Concrete doesn't have many weaknesses, but it still needs protected from the few materials that can weaken it. Most acids, for example, will deteriorate your concrete surface if they are left on it for too long. The best line of defense when it comes to protecting the surface of your concrete is to use good materials with as much chemical resistance as possible. We also sealcoat our concrete so it's protected from the elements and from materials that will weaken it. Our materials and procedures ensure that your new concrete surface will endure for decades if properly maintenanced.
Why is the surface of my concrete flaking and peeling? There are several things that can cause the surface of your concrete can flake off, or spall. These are:

Why is the surface of my concrete flaking and peeling? There are several things that can cause the surface of your concrete can flake off, or spall. These are:
- If you live in an area that commonly freezes and thaws. In these areas, we advise using air-entrained concrete will be more resistant to surface damage during freeze-thaw cycles.
- If the water/cement ratio is too high. If the concrete mix has too much water in it, the concrete will be weaker and less durable. That will eventually lead to early flaking and spalling on the surface of your relatively new concrete.
- If the finishing operations are begun too soon. We can't finish the process of your concrete project until the sheen of water and excess bleed water on the surface of the concrete have evaporated. If we finish it prematurely, that water will be worked into the concrete and will weaken the mixture on the surface.
