How Long Does Concrete Take to Dry?

September 7, 2022

How long does concrete take to dry? Concrete is one of the most popular building materials used in construction, and for a good reason. Whether it’s for driveways, commercial properties, garage floors, walkways, and even stoops — it is strong, durable, and versatile. However, concrete is not fast-drying. Concrete can take days or even weeks to cure and harden fully. So, how long does concrete take to dry? The answer

We recently completed the construction of a new house and I can honestly say that Richfield Concrete was among the very best subcontractors we used across the project. Their team was courteous, respectful, and did exactly what they said they would do when they said they would do it.

I had an appointment with Mark F. to do an estimate on replacing my front steps. Mark was very knowledgeable and due to the nature of the job, he actually recommended going a different route, different than concrete. This meant no job for him, but he certainly put my needs first, and especially the needs of my pocket book. I appreciate his professionalism and expertise. He took his time to educate me on more cost effective options that would result in a very long lasting product. Thank you Mark.

The quality and service exceeded my expectations. The company was responsive, always followed up, came on time, and were friendly and informative.The crew themselves seemed to take a lot of pride in their work and were kind and pleasant. They even helped move a few plants as to not damage them.Great work and service. Real pros.

Richfield Concrete did a ~1500 sq ft replacement of my concrete driveway, patio, and sidewalk. Working with them was really easy and they listened to all my questions and concerns. They also provided some great suggestions for improving the overall look of my patio that I hadn't thought of, and gave me some options for saving money on various parts of the project. Super happy with the end results.

Richfield Concrete is top notch, I could not be more pleased with the company from start to finish and very satisfied I went with them. They are responsive, communicative and one of the best companies I have dealt with. We got a driveway apron and several sidewalk panels done and WOW the work is outstanding, you expect great results when paying a service and Richfield Concrete delivered. Tom was great to deal with and Jason and crew are true craftsman who take great pride in their workmanship - Top notch company and 100% recommend!

Highly recommend Richfield Blacktop and Concrete. They replaced our 25 year old asphalt drive with a concrete, replaced the sidewalk and steps from our front door to the street, and worked with our city to replace four sidewalk slabs that had settled in front of our house (retaining water and creating a slipping hazard in winter). Fantastic work! Project Manager Tom was responsive, the on-site crew and foreman were professional, quality of work is fantastic. We had some concerns on the controls cuts in the city sidewalk, and Tom worked with us to answer our questions and resolve them quickly. Very pleased with the outcome

The asphalt driveway at our home was from 1994, so it was badly deteriorated, missing in parts, and cracked everywhere. It, and the concrete front entrance, were unsightly and also a risk to walk on. Knowing they had to be replaced this year, I did hours of research into local firms, read almost every review, had a few estimators come out so I could get their quotes as well as a sense of their work ethic, and then chose Richfield Blacktop & Concrete - one of the best decisions I've ever made. The owner, Tom, was great to work with, patient, and clear in my options. The actual crew was professional, clean, and respectful. And the work itself is of such high quality that several neighbors rang the doorbell to compliment us on it and ask who did it. Richfield Blacktop & Concrete did the finest job imaginable - Five Star work.

I contacted Bob at Richfield Blacktop about a concrete parking pad. He came out right away to do the estimate. He stayed in contact with me via text and email extremely responsively. The bid was competitive, and while we ended up pausing on the work in the short term, I would be glad to do business with Richfield Blacktop & Concrete in the future. Based on their interactions with me it was clear that they are professional, courteous, and great to work with!

A friend referred me to Richfield Concrete for driveway apron replacement. From the very first phone call to project end, they were professional, efficient, proficient, and kind. They came out promptly, measured, and presented a quote. I should mention here that I had researched several other companies and found Richfield Concrete to be very cost effective. When the gentleman Mark initially came, he carefully explained their process and timeline, and answered all my questions. He left informative materials re their proprietary mix and FAQ's. I especially appreciated their efforts with their mix re our planet & climate concerns. Their craftsmanship is outstanding - my driveway apron is beautiful, and several neighbors and friends have asked for Richfield's contact info.I am a very satisfied customer and I will contract with Richfield again for the remainder of my driveway project. If you have a concrete or asphalt project, and are interested in professionalism, superior workmanship, friendly, kind & efficient customer service, give Richfield Concrete a call - they really were Great!

Although I did not end up having my driveway redone, Bob from Richfield Blacktop came to give me an estimate and he was wonderful to work with. Very friendly, personable and professional!

Great service! I met the owner today, a couple years after driveway install, great guy! Came over and did some repairs, all covered, just like they said! 10/10 will recommend! Thanks!

I contracted these guys to replace my drive and expand it to include an additional parking spot. The installation process went well, and the drive looked very good. I had a slight issue with the way the concrete apron was repaired, but when I called them to discuss they were very reasonable and we reached an acceptable agreement. I never expect contract work to be 100% bump-free, but if the contractor acts professionally that's all I can ask. Where they really set themselves apart is in post-installation support. A year after installation a weird silver-dollar shaped hole appeared in a random spot in the middle of the drive. I called them and they sent someone out to patch it. The patch has held up perfectly. Two years after installation a small crack appeared at the edge of the drive. I emailed them a picture and they responded same day saying they'd send someone out to patch it up same week. A professional contractor who stands by their warranty.

With absolutely no background or knowledge of concrete replacement, we found Richfield Concrete’s website to be extremely helpful with facts and general information as we went through the interviewing process of various contractors who might do our driveway replacement.We ended up going with Richfield Concrete because, like their website, they were extremely informative and straightforward in the bidding process, creating a clear picture as to what the process would be from start to finish. Even with unexpected weather and supply chain issues, everything was handled professionally always, and we were always kept extremely well informed as to what was going to happen and when. We are genuinely happy with our new driveway and the overall job as it was performed by Richfield Concrete. Every single person involved in the process was really great, caring very much about the end result. We highly recommend this company.

I would highly recommend them. From Dan and Tom to all the workers, everyone was highly professional and respectful. They did exactly what they said they would do in a timely manner. We even had a crack and within a couple days they were out repairing it. We absolutely love our new garage floor and driveway.

Richfield poured a new front sidewalk, fixed a heaving garage floor and for icing on the cake, installed a new asphalt driveway. From the first interaction with Richfield all the way to project completion they were:- Timely with all communication both via email and calls from Tom- Dan who came out did the estimates, was great to work with- No surprise costs, expenses or confusion on what needed to get done- The crew was very respectful, even waving and playing with my girls who were watching them work from the window- Not only did they explain what they were going to do, how they were going to do it, they made sure I understood and answered any questions I hadAnywork I need done in the future will be done by Richfield. Thanks Tom, Dan & Crew!

Tom and his crew did a great job recently in sealing my driveway. The workers were very professional and contacted me prior to coming out the day before. The foreman also followed up with a phone call to make sure that I was satisfied with their service later in the evening once completed. This isn't the first time Ive used Richfield Blacktop as they were also the ones who installed the original driveway. They standby their word when it comes to quality at an affordable price. I will continue in using them in the future.

We had some depression tire marks after 3 years and Tom came out within a week to repair this and a few other spots we hadn't even noticed. They back up their warranty 100%. Highly recommended.

Bob and Tom were both sincere in their concern for quality work, the crew did exactly what I ask for. Everyone involved were prompt and friendly. We are very happy with our new patio and dry basement. We couldn't have asked for more. Thanks Again CT

Tom was great to work with, even the changes that happened along the way were no deterrent for this guy! They gave us plenty of time to install our new retaining walls. They even had to come back out to regrade the driveway because there were soft spots. All the crews were amazing at their jobs! Left everything in great condition without a trace they were even here. Very kind and courteous, letting us know when they were done and leaving and made sure all our questions were answered. Love that there's a gal on the crew too! Would very highly recommend these guys! They are very hard workers!

Tom set up our appointment for bid and was punctual. Let us know what would need to be done on our end before work could be performed. Put us at ease knowing they had been in business for a long time and were well respected in the community. Crew was on-time, respectful, worked quickly leaving us with a great finished product. Did have a concern regarding blending old well room concrete blocks with new front steps, and Tom came over himself to color match to ensure a beautiful aesthetic. Can see why they stay busy all season! Great job! (attached photo of finished patio)

Richfield Concrete did an excellent job at our residence. We have hired them for our backyard patio, our front sidewalk and plan on using them in the future for a new driveway. They are professional, experienced, and flexible with scheduling. I highly recommend them.

Unbelievable- got an estimate in August and was told my sidewalk would be replaced and new patio made the end of September the beginning of October. September 26th a two man crew showed up to access the project and said they would start the project at 0645 27 September. At 0640 27 September the crew started work and left around 1730. The work performed was not the only amazing part - I had my roof being replaced at the time and the roofers continued to drop debris in the wet cement. The crew from Richfield continued to ensure that NOTHING would destroy the work they had done. They went above and beyond- if you need concrete work done - this is the company that will ensure you get a great job for s very fair price!

This is the first time I've written a review for ANY company, but these guys are great. They put in concrete steps for us in 2014. Four years later I called them asking advice about a small rusty stain that had developed. I was just looking for guidance, but Tom responded right away and came out and fixed it for free within a week.We were very surprised and happy that they would provide such good follow-up service so long after the initial work.

We have worked with Richfield Blacktop & Concrete for years and every experience has been great. We had them do asphalt work before they replaced our driveway with cement. We've since had them out to tint/seal a few times and the results are always amazing. The owner and crew at Richfield Blacktop and Concrete are all very respectful, detail oriented and extremely easy to reach. I highly recommend calling them if you want work done by true professionals!
