Mixer driver here. What we do if we have to add Super P or any other admix product on site (including fiber) is we roll the drum backwards and bring the concrete up to a point where the additive slides off the hopper directly onto the concrete, then give it a three to five minute stir. That way, you're not having to rinse product off the fins and sides of the drum with a big shot of water; the concrete stays at the slump it arrived.

Its all gonna turn white but why would you mess up the broom finish lol

This is the best concrete work i ever seen,in sri lanaka we can't see like this works,i like that ❤

Why do you need to cut the concrete after?

I don't know anything about construction, But. The lines on the concrete are for any reason or just a design? Btw nice job! 👍🏻

If they set you back 2 days, then you need to charge them. The 2 days of labor that you lost.

How do you manage to mess up every square inch of a brand new driveway you just paid for? Just stay off for a week or so.

Awesome work , I wish you were on the east coast . Thanks Guys .

i feel sorry for that mans kids. what an asshole

40% he paid you

You can apply for a variance. They cost around $3,000 and there is no guarantee that it would be approved. Timeline could be as much as 3 months or more to even have it heard.

What sealer should I use if using a water based solvent stain ? Ty 👍🇺🇸

Hello Mr. Odell any chance adding a lil muratic acid to water based stain ? Will it leave a better finish like the acid one you used in this video ?

This looks like the perfect house to add that lien to bro. i've been following your guys channel for years and your jobs are always top notch. That armchair contractor is a bum man, last minute changes and change orders shows he doesn't know what hes doing. Get him to court and get that lien on there man, you have a following of almost 1/2 mil followers strong. most of the comments on here are nothing but supportive. that guy wont be in business long if that's his character

Check out Ruby Lake Glass ....they have a whole line of sizes and colors.

Excellent travail 👍👍

Hey there, I took a moment to watch the part 1 of the video. I genuinely empathize with the challenges you faced on that job. However, it seems there was a breakdown in communication and responsibility. In my experience, both contractors I've worked with always insisted on city inspections and ground marking before any digging began. So, I'm curious why those steps weren't taken in your situation. While I understand the frustration, it's essential to recognize that as a professional, the onus is on you to ensure these precautions are in place, especially with less experienced homeowners. Instead of resorting to blame, it might be more productive to reflect on what could have been done differently to prevent this situation. Rather than solely focusing on the negative aspects, perhaps there's an opportunity to learn and improve processes for future projects. For instance, implementing a policy of securing partial payments as work progresses and ensuring all necessary inspections are completed beforehand could mitigate risks like this in the future. I've personally had positive experiences with contractors who adopt this approach. They're proactive in discussing issues, adjusting rates if necessary, and ensuring the best outcome for everyone involved. Ultimately, the goal should be constructive dialogue and problem-solving, rather than assigning blame. Let's use this as a learning experience to avoid similar issues moving forward. Blaming the homeowner only makes you look bad, and it shows you refuse to take responsibility for the job you were hired to do it's on you, not the homeowner in the end.

he owes you 100% from the job. Take him to court, you have a binding contract.

Should have used a jack hammer in the front. I see you used in the back makes like little easier

Like you don’t know how to string a job up these want to bes

That pool guy should be fired

He knows what’s he’s doing in truck

Counter sue him for job delay you had to stop working because of the water

❤

You need to get your money. Put judgement against him he’s a dam crook

I’ve got one I been dealing with like that

If he "supervised" then he has lost any argument about quality. As a previous contractor, I would have done all forming and block work myself and hired you guys for the pour and finishing only. He apparently doesn't know much and probably had a client stiff him for legitimate substandard work. People like this make us all seem like frauds and idiots. Pay this man, now!

Sue his ass

Frost depth ?

Why would you broom a shed floor? I want my jack to roll around easily! Good work tho!

Honestly you should have something in the contract that states if your workers are mistreated you have the right to refuse service at any point. Then if you start getting mistreated mid job just walk away even if you already tore up their yard. If they signed the contract and broke the terms then it's on them.

The camera makes many of the lines look curved, sometimes it looks like the boxing has blown out but I'm sure it's fine. It's hard to see what climate you're working in but pre-wetting the base may help buy you time when it comes to finishing. Seeing that you did that over a couple of hours that went off pretty quickly, I would have wet that mix up which would also drop the MPA/PSI a little. Initially the broom finish looked good but as you progress the finish becomes much lighter, really needed to get onto that much sooner. You should invest in a proper screed and magnesium bull float you'll appreciate how smooth and creamy it makes the top. It's not a good look screeding concrete with a piece of timber. Doing concrete for domestic homeowners is a nightmare, I ended up getting into Civil Construction.

Hope hes paid u

I wouldn’t trust him to fly anything including a kite. 😳

This job looked great…

That’s the reason quit tattooing. People come in with a picture of google, want the exact copy. Even if you do exact copy they will try to find a reason to not pay you. Recently I just let somebody go with a half finished piece cause mid piece he told me: I don’t have the money for the whole tattoo, I just got half of it. People show up intentionally without money etc. Sick and tired of being „a contract worker“ if that makes sense. Everybody these days acts way over their status. It’s as if social media has become real life for them… delusional idiots. That’s what these clients really were. Delusional self loving egos.

It’s amazing how many times you need to go over and over the spreading and smoothing of the cement. Very nice! Great to watch the process!

5k lol home owners a dick

I was a landscaping contractor in California for over 25 years and i loved what I did but boy is a dark day when you find this dirt bags of clients. To make matters worst also have to deal with the morons of the contractor license board which will side with this crooks all the time. I did my best to satisfy this idiots for years The only time I put my foot down with one of this crooks and we went to arbitration this moron from the license board side with the home owner despite me proving I never abandon the job and and job been completed over 90 percent and been terminated for no legal reason. I was fined thousands of dollars and got my license suspended. So you have crooked people and also have morons from the license board the will side with them, it is a contractors nightmare. stories like this of contractor been taken advantage off, are way to common and don't make the headlines, but when the homeowner get taken advantage by an unlicensed individual makes all the headlines and license contractors get put unfairly in the same category as this people. So I know the feeling you did a nice job

Good work

What is this pattern called

Looks great!

I am from UK but was mesmerised what an amazing job you and your team did he was out for the scam from the outset personally I would paid in full and tipped amazing job keep going bet you have more positive than negative clients well done guys

Nice work brother.👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

If things aren't square stamp it diagonally easy peasy

Why no Neutralizer? Amonia

Always good to teacher Your trade brother.👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Do you use chairs to lift the mesh or just lift it during the pour by hand?

You did a fantastic job I say he paid you 30% in England the contractor would go back and smash all the concrete if not paid they do the same in Australia. If you don't pay it's still belonged to contractor.

kept waiting to see a "skidder".... never happened. was wondering why yall doing concrete, but need a "skidder" as if yall are logging.......
