Curing is part of the job
Concrete gains strength over time. Temperature, wind and moisture conditions influence how quickly the surface dries.
The surface can look finished before it is ready for full use.
Hot weather needs attention
Fast surface drying can affect finishing and curing. Timing and care should be adjusted to the day’s conditions.
Follow the contractor’s instructions before placing furniture or vehicles on the slab.
Ask before using the slab
Different projects carry different loads. A patio, sidewalk and driveway may have different return-to-use guidance.
