Concrete sealing is an important step in protecting and preserving concrete surfaces. Sealing helps preserve the longevity of the surface and prevent damage from moisture, chemicals, wear, and tear. It also provides a barrier against staining, cracking, and fading caused by UV rays. Additionally, sealed concrete will have a neat appearance that can improve the overall look of your home or business. Finally, properly sealed concrete can help reduce slip-and-fall accidents on walkways and other areas with frequent foot traffic. 

Concrete curing is the process of keeping concrete moist and at a consistent temperature in order to allow it to properly harden. Properly cured concrete has increased strength, durability and water resistance compared to uncured concrete. Ideally, concrete should be kept moist for at least seven days in order to achieve optimal curing results. During this period, the water content within the concrete slowly evaporates into the surrounding air while new calcium-silicate hydrate crystals form which solidify and strengthen the cement.

The amount of time it takes to install a concrete kerb depends on several factors, including the size of the project, the complexity of the design and the weather conditions. In general, installing a single length of kerb can take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. For larger projects with complex designs, such as curved kerbs or driveways, installation times can vary widely depending on the scope of work involved. Installing kerbs in wet weather typically takes longer due to increased safety concerns and potential delays due to adverse conditions.
