Depending on the temperature, you can use your new feature 7 to 10 days after the concrete has been poured. During the hotter months of the summer in 7 days and after 10 days during the milder temperatures of the fall and spring. Should you have any heavy traffic such as semi-tractor trailer or a dump truck, you should wait 14 days. Do not walk on the newly poured concrete for 24-48 hours.
