I am having a concrete patio installed to replace my wooden deck of 19 years. Doe's anyone here use a BBQ mat under their performer and WSM? Any recommendations?
Just a friendly reminder to let the patio cure for 5-7days. You want to slow the evaporation of water out of the mix, so either keep it wet with a hose and cover with heavy plastic visqueen or use a cure & seal.
You do one or the other and the slab will last a long,long time.
Freshly laid concrete is like a new born baby, you have to pamper it, but unlike a baby which you would like to keep dry, this baby needs to be kept moist esp if placed on a hot sunny day.
