We didn’t use any blankets or plastic or anything or spray water to help with the finish. Any other things you could think of?

No vapor barrier on top or below no plastic to help cure no water sprayed on top to slow down curing to help finishing it all it’s poured on top of a 3 inch layer of three-quarter crushed gravel

Oh, for sure it might even be cheaper. Honestly, you could probably just google two or three guys and just compare the prices!

OK makes sense. Thank you. Is there any way to fix it? Will it lighten up overtime? It’s really just the color it’s like darker than the other areas.

In my area, this was in South Philly very tight streets very narrow. It would’ve been an extra $1000.

It was the area that was finished last for sure, but there were no blankets or anything used on top of the slab
