Concrete Acid Stain

What is a Concrete Acid Stain? Many people are not familiar with the concrete acid stain technique.

These three ingredients mix with the minerals that are already present in the concrete, which in turn causes the concrete to change color. This process can work very nicely on both new and old concrete. If properly...

They can be used for many different purposes, from digging valve box holes to trenches...

The strong winds that come with a hurricane often cause all the leaves on a tree to be blown off. This is referred to as defoliation of the canopy. However, this doesn't mean the tree has died.
