Efflorescence are deposits of salts that form when water is present in or on brick, concrete, stone, stucco or other building surfaces left behind when water evaporates.

Maintaining a steep asphalt driveway.

Hello All, I have a short section of my driveway which is paved and fairly steep. I live in central NH, so we have winter, yep. I was told when I had it paved two years ago not to use any regular driveway sealer stuff on it as it would get too slick. It's slick enough as it as, believe me you. (It's a 105' rise over just under 600', a 20% grade average). I'd think in this day & age there must be some kind of epoxy based product to use on asphalt to control cracking, seal seams, etc. Any suggestions?Read More

I am installing railing on 2nd story cement deck(walk out basement). What I have are 5 slabs 8’2”x 12’6”” at 5” thick. The problem I have is that one post lands only 1” away from edge where 2 slabs meet. There is approx 1/8” gap between the two slabs. Will grouting between the two give it enough latteral support to not blow out edge?Read More
