*(Length
X Width X Depth) divided by 27.
*All
measurements should be in feet. To convert
inches into feet divide
the inches by 12. See below chart for the
conversions.
| 1” = .08’ |
2” = .17’ |
3” = .25’ |
4” = .33’ |
| 5” = .42’ |
6” = .50’ |
7” = .58’ |
8” = .67’ |
| 9” = .75’ |
10” = .83’ |

Finding
a Quality Contractor
| 1. |
First thing you should know is
if the Contactor is licensed and bonded.
You can easily find out by going to
the following website: https://secure.utah.gov/llv/llv |
| 2. |
Ask for a few references and call
them. Who better to tell you about the
contractor
than a past customer? |
| 3. |
Take the time to personally inspect
different samples of the contractors
work. An hour or two of your time will
really help you decide on whom to use. |
| 4. |
Have a written contract with the
contractor. This will help if legal
issues
should arise. |
| 5. |
Shop around. Get bids from several
Contractors, but remember that you get
what you pay for. The cheapest might
result in the poorest quality. |
Tips
for maintaining your concrete
After going
thru the time and expense of installing new
concrete, few people
take
the time to properly maintain it. Homeowners
can help keep their investment in concrete
by following a few simple steps.
Clean
your concrete. Keeping the concrete
surface clean and free of stains. To
remove oil stains apply paint thinner
and cover
with an absorbing material ie. cat
litter, floor dry, etc.
Seal your concrete. Concrete
is a porous material which means that water
will
penetrate the surface and can cause
damage from
inside the concrete. Appling a high-quality
sealer
after the initial cure and then
each fall season after will help keep this
from
happening. Sealer can be applied
in
many different
ways.
Chemicals. Salt and most
De-icers can damage concrete surfaces. Fertilizer
can damage
the surface as well as giving
an
unsightly stain if left on the
surface. Avoiding
the prolonged exposure will help
lengthen the
life of your concrete. |
