Why Mentor Homeowners Choose Gaetano Cement
Mentor sits firmly in the "Snow Belt," meaning driveways here face more freeze/thaw cycles and heavier salt use than other parts of Northeast Ohio. Additionally, the soil closer to the lake tends to be sandier, which requires different compaction techniques than the clay found further south.
At Gaetano Cement, we understand Lake County conditions. We use high-strength, air-entrained concrete mixes specifically designed to resist scaling and pitting from heavy winter weather.
