I just had concrete pured, should I seal it?

It’s not stained or stamped, just regular concrete. Stains seem to stay long like mud and bird poop. Is there a stian sealer I can spray to make keeping clean easier?

    Yes, you should seal it, home depot or loews, it’s a roll on, like paint but clear, very easy to do. It looks real professional too, they have speckled stuff also, my hubby didn’t use that. Good Luck

    Id like to know how to pure concrete..lol

    Seriously, you can’t seal any aggregate which has not had time to cure. You didn’t provide dimensions but rest assured, it will take time depending on your climate. Cover with a raised tarp . Mud and bird droppings are the least of your problems.

    Yes most definitely seal it and especially if you live in a freezing climate. This helps water to not penetrate into the slab and get under the slab to help prevent sealing. depending on the sealer, you should do this yearly. 30 days is a minimum curing time for most slabs but read the particular sealers directions on whats best.
