So, I thought asking here first might be a reasonable thing to do.

Please accept my apology, as I did not intend for my response to seem like you were asking anything but a necessary question.
In my initial response I suspected someone had told you that parking on the street was not allowed. I say this because I was told this by neighbors when I first moved to the villages. It was many years later before I discovered that my neighbors just preferred that no one park in the street. One neighbor even became annoyed when someone had work done at their house, because it meant workers vehicles were always parked on the street.

Sorry, I am just a "Grumpy Old Man" - no harm no foul!

Thanks for the comment, and yes, I have heard of people getting annoyed at workers parking on the streets... I guess all work should be done at night and in complete silence.

Had mine (and my garage) done a couple months ago and parked car and cart in the street for over a week with no problem

i parked on the street out of the way while mine was being done. its only for a day or two. most people will understand because they have been in that situation themselves.

What do people do with their car while they have their driveway and garage sealed and painted? I understand it will take two days (after it is cleaned.)

Do you just park on the street? Do you ask neighbors to let you park in their driveways?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Thanks,

Can’t give you any better advice than what you have already received. Just wanted to say Cliff and his crew will do a great job. Ours looks just as good today as it did four years ago when Decorative Concrete did our driveway!

Sounds like you may have fresh/new concrete.
Ask the contractor how long it should be cured before coating.

Thanks for the suggestion, I will do that!
