Chattanooga Driveway Installation Contractors
Concrete is a preferred material for use in many driveways throughout the Chattanooga area. Concrete has several advantages over other driveway materials. A long lifespan is one of the main advantages, with an average of thirty years expected for most concrete driveway installations. Concrete is also a very durable surface, is attractive, and is low-maintenance as well.
The consideration of a concrete driveway is a decision that should not be taken too lightly. A concrete driveway will take some time to complete, typically about 7-10 days from beginning to end. The installation process contains several steps that must be performed in a particular manner, and a “curing” time needs to also be considered before vehicles are allowed to be driven on the driveway’s surface.
The first step in installing a concrete driveway is to lay out the design and plan while also ensuring that the area is cleared of debris and leveled. This step is called the sub-grade preparation. Once this preparation is complete, then our concrete contractors will be able to pour the concrete. Immediately after the concrete is poured, then the contractors must smooth the surface of the concrete before it begins to set. This timing window is pretty narrow, so the contractor must stay focused and pay close attention to detail.
If you are interested in adding decorative concrete, such as stained concrete or stamped concrete, then the completion time will be extended by a few more days. The professionals at Brick Mason Chattanooga strongly recommend that plenty of time is allowed for the curing process to be completed. If a vehicle is driven on the concrete’s surface too soon, then weak spots in the concrete may form or unwanted indentions may become noticeable. By allowing the concrete to completely set before driving a vehicle on the surface, you can prolong the longevity and the beauty of the concrete’s surface.
