Spring & Summer Concrete Prep: Keep It Strong & Looking Great Winter can be rough on concrete, leaving behind cracks, stains, and general wear. With warmer weather ahead, now is the time to give your driveways, patios, and walkways some much-needed attention to ensure they stay in top shape all season long. Here’s how to get your concrete ready: ???Check for Damage?– Look for cracks or chips and repair them before they worsen. ???Give It a Good Wash?– Power wash to remove built-up dirt, salt, and grime. ????Apply a Fresh Sealer?– Protect against moisture, UV rays, and wear. ???Keep Weeds at Bay?– Clear out any growth between cracks and prevent future sprouting. Taking care of your concrete now will keep it durable and looking fresh for months to come! #ConcreteMaintenance #SpringCleaning #StrongFoundations #ConstructionTips #5brosConcrete

Lillian Gilbreth was an industrial engineer and psychologist who, along with her husband Frank, pioneered?modern construction efficiency techniques?in the early 20th century. Her work in?time-motion studies?helped improve the way concrete was mixed and poured, making the process?faster, safer, and more cost-effective. One of her key contributions? She analyzed how workers handled materials like concrete and developed?better workflow designs?to reduce fatigue and increase productivity. Her innovations helped shape modern construction practices, and her influence can still be seen today! #WomenInConstruction #ConcreteInnovation #LillianGilbreth #EngineeringPioneer #5BrosConcrete

Winter is tough on sidewalks, but a little maintenance goes a long way! Icy, snow-covered sidewalks aren’t just an inconvenience—they’re a safety hazard. Keeping them clear is key to preventing accidents and avoiding costly repairs down the road. ??Shovel regularly?– Don’t let snow pile up! Clearing it early helps prevent ice buildup. ??Use the right deicer?– Rock salt works, but calcium chloride or sand can be better for concrete longevity. ??Check for cracks?– Water seeps in and freezes, making small cracks bigger by spring. A little patchwork now saves big headaches later! A well-maintained sidewalk isn’t just about curb appeal—it’s about safety and durability. Stay ahead of winter and keep those walkways safe! #WinterMaintenance #SidewalkSafety #ConcreteCare #5BrosConcrete

Did you know that African American inventors revolutionized concrete technology? In 1899, John Stanard patented an improved mixing and storing system for concrete, enhancing efficiency in construction. Later, in 1920, Lewis Latimer—better known for his work with the light bulb—patented a method for waterproofing concrete, making buildings more durable. Their innovations helped shape modern construction! #BlackHistoryMonth #Innovation #ConcreteHistory #5BrosConcrete
