Marc The Plumber : Hello and thank you for using our service. I will assist you today with your question to the best of my ability.
Marc The Plumber : It is never too hot however you must be aware that the "curing" process will be quicker than at a lower temperature. The cement and mortar will set up quicker.
Marc The Plumber : Keep in mind that the hotter it is the quicker the evaporation of the water within the concrete will happen making working with the cement tougher. However I would rather work with cement during a hot period than too cold as the curing process slows to almost a stand still closer to freezing temperatures.
