Best practices for pouring concrete slabs
Pouring concrete slabs requires attention to preparation, mix consistency, and timing. Ensure the site is level, clear, and well-drained before starting. Use high-quality concrete mix suitable for the slab’s intended use. Pour in sections, especially for larger areas, and avoid overworking the surface to prevent air pockets. Employ proper tools like screeds and floats to smooth the slab. Finish with sealing to protect from weather and wear. For best results, pour during mild weather conditions to avoid cracking due to rapid temperature changes. Following these practices ensures a smooth, even slab that stands the test of time.
