Concrete Sealing
What is concrete sealing?
Concrete sealers are applied to concrete to protect it against surface damage, corrosion, and staining. They either obstruct the pores in the concrete to lessen the absorption of water and salts or form an impermeable layer which keeps such materials from passing.
Concrete is a blend of water, Portland cement, and aggregate. When mixed, the concrete takes after slurry and poured into forms with rebar or steel support. Added substances and retarders might be included at the time of the pour to expand the strength or slow the drying time. Tools are used to float the concrete which will make it smooth. As the concrete cures, it then hardens. Concrete does not dry out on its own but undergoes a slow chemical process solidifies it. On the off chance that concrete isn't properly cured, it can lead to various problems including, cracking and dusting. The cure and seal can be used by the contractor to speed up the curing process; keeping the concrete hydrated and protected.
One of the best examples, where to use concrete sealers, is your driveway. As a homeowner, would you want to do everything in your power to protect your biggest investment? Many homeowners often ignore the importance of sealing their driveways. Concrete driveways, especially in climates that had experience freeze/thaw cycles, takes advantage immensely from infiltrating and topical sealers strengthen the surface and repel water, mold, oil, salt, etc. This type of proper driveway maintenance spares you money in the long haul and in most cases.
