Looked like the perfect Friday job. Nothing much to clean up and everyone feels like they worked a half day.

Customer is always right but the builder cheaped out on that one. Concrete in my area is about $300 a yard. He saw a way to save $1200 and jumped on it. Mistake on his part. The homeowner will want a full width pad to make easier garage access and so the kids have room to play basketball and ride their bikes.

That makes sense

What Do You Think We Should Do? 1. Use geotextile. 2. Ram gravel. 3. Do not throw rebar on the gravel. Install it on racks. So rebar will start to work in the concrete. 4. Lay waterproofing under the rebar. So concrete milk will not soak into the gravel and concrete hardness will not decrease. 5. Process poured concrete not only by hands, but also with "helicopter". You will make top level of concrete much more wearproof. 6. Cover poured concrete by polyethylene to avoid extra drying. In this case you will do really high quality work. Sorry about this criticism and have a nice day.

You've got me hooked on edging and borders. In my mind, TSH always beautifies their work w edging and borders. I guess plain Jane may fit ok behind the house. I really did like the music today, I've heard that song at one of my granddaughter's dance competitions. I can still hear it in my head as I type. I would bet when that house gets an owner, they'll want the rest of the drive poured. Poor Steve having to work 6 days, lol, he'll be working, doing something on Sunday too. He and Tommy work every day, when not w TSH on their own houses. During my 35 years at Corning Cable Systems, I worked 7 days a lot and didn't like being there but 7th day pay was double time, so I loved it on payday. I worked overtime every day, every week and had my contribution to my 401k upped to 5% my last 10 years. That gave me enough to retire at 62 and I did! I'm still hearing I'm invisible. Nice! Another great video Tom and crew, thanks!👍👌❤🇺🇸🇺🇸

Very similar to the concrete for my home. How many yards?

You need more expansion from curb to house and rebar "bars" placement is critical in this 3.5" slab... I suggest you no longer use the bars... You can email me if you want a private answer... Buy a roller tamper, your jobs are large enough and make deeper aprons ... lastly, increase depth at entrances to Garages... I have been holding out but I will do a video on my other Chanel on reinforcement placement for driveways.

A couple of years ago when we lived in Florida, there was an issue in a new neighborhood that would flood with heavy rains. The street department finally found the problem, when the construction was going on, the concrete outfits were having the driver's dump the excess concrete down the sewer drain and overtime plugged up the line. I know when we had concrete apron added to the front of our building and i told the driver to dump the extra along the fence line but he didn't listen to me and let it go where I would mow. So then i had to clean up his mess.

Tom why do some concrete companies use a piece of wood as an expansion joint at least they do in St Louis area? I hate it. The wood rots and now you have a big gap to clean out and refill. Is there a reason? Is saw cutting the alternative?
