| Hiring a Concrete Contractor |
|
You are hiring for a project and know you should get at least three estimates. Here a few more tips when you get those quotes:
-When comparing estimates, it is important to take the time to ask specifically what is or is not included in the price. We try to be as detailed as possible with our estimates, and just because American Concrete, Inc., includes something in our quote does not necessarily mean the competitor with the vague description includes it also. If you see it in our quote and not the competition’s, ask them if they included it in their price so you know what they are really quoting you.
-It is important to sign a contract with a contractor to protect each party, no matter the job size. That way, there is no confusion in what is expected to be done.
-Ask for references!! And call them! Established companies will have satisfied customers willing to vouch for their work. If a contractor cannot provide these for you, this may indicate a problem.

It is important to follow some rules and procedures to care
properly for your concrete:
-Wait 6 to 8 days before driving on your freshly poured concrete.
-Do not use any de-icer on your concrete for the first year (use sand only)
-Never use de-icers containing ammonium sulphate or nitrate on your
concrete
