    Q:The anchoring cement around my railing seems to be eroding, almost like it is washing away with the rain after a few years this has happened once before and was replaced. Why does this happen? Could lye washed from adjacent rock veneer cause this?

    Answer This Question

    A:  Many commercial anchoring cements are gypsum based, and therefore unsuitable for regular water contact. These products will erode after repeated wet/dry cycles. QUIKRETE Anchoring Cement is not gypsum based, making it suitable for exterior use and impervious to moisture once cured.
