The concept of concrete being an astetic focal point in our homes and businesses is relatively new to the Midwest. However, in other areas of the country, especially in the southwest, the beauty of concrete is everywhere. Europeans discovered its versatility long ago. It is the material of choice for floors, walls, counter tops, bars, islands, tables - the possibilities are endless. Concrete has wonderful characteristics, rich depth of variation in color and texture. Concrete is beautifully imperfect. Concrete complements other natural products such as granite, marble, wood, glass, stone and metal. . It can be the main feature in a room or just an accent. Enjoy the durability of concrete, and with minimal care its natural organic beauty will grow over time. |

| Concrete vs. Asphalt Do you really want a "blacktop" driveway? Consider these facts published by the Asphalt Press Industries in their 1987 brochure "Your new driveway: The how, why and when blacktop driveway care." Apply sealer 3-12 months after paving and every two to three years after that. Asphalt remains soft and pliable until fully cured in six to 12 months. Keep cars off a new driveway for three days, longer in hot weather. Avoid gas, oil, anti-freeze, power steering and transmission fluid spills and leaks. Fill any hairline cracks that develop over the winter. Keep oil trucks, concrete trucks and other heavy vehicle off your new driveway. Watering down your driveway with a water hose on hot days will cool and temporarily harden the blacktop. This is helpful but not mandatory. Don't park your car in the same spot every time while the asphalt is curing during the first six to 12 months. Weight in concentrated areas-such as bicycle and motorcycle kickstands, carjacks, or ramps, lawn chair legs and high heels-creates holes, especially during warmer weather. Points not mentioned in the above copy: Even after the blacktop has cured, do not expect it to be as hard as concrete. Avoid driving on the edges since they will crack and crumble over time.
