What is the difference between concrete and cement?

Cement is the ‘active ingredient’ in concrete. The cement reacts with water and is the glue that holds concrete together.

What weather conditions are okay for masonry & concrete projects?

Masonry & concrete projects should only be undertaken in dry weather conditions and above freezing temperature. 60-80 degrees Fahrenheit is ideal.

How long until I can drive on my new driveway or garage?

Concrete is designed to reach 90% of its maximum strength in 7 days, making it okay for passenger vehicles after one week. Refrain from parking or driving heavy equipment on your new concrete surface for 30 days.
