concrete problem

[adventureman80]

I think Im in the right place to ask. I wanted to put lay some concrete behind my cabin to have a flat and clean place to part mu truck, everything went well, but the temepratures during the night dipped below freezing which is a concern for me. Is the concrete savable or I'll start from scratch?

If it's fully frozen, you'll likely need to tear it out and redo it, so check for cracks or instability, if it's weak, start fresh.

Did the concrete set before the temp dipped below freezing? I'm scared there's water inside already frozen which you know may cause scaling and cracking. We wouldn't want that. Anyway, check the surface for dust. It might have frozen too early. If the damage is just on the surface then just add a resurfacer or topping mix.

@TrustNo1 said everything on my mind already. Just to be sure, start from scratch. I think that's the cost of not timing properly. Sorry to hear mate. Next time do consider the temp for the whole day or the whole duration you're gonna work.
