How The Pro's Screed Concrete (Learn How Here)

#EverythingAboutConcrete #TheConcreteUnderground

This video is about pouring a concrete floor for a garage and learning how to screed concrete level.
Screeding concrete is a skill that's one of the hardest things to learn when it comes to pouring concrete. Getting the concrete level is very important whether you're pouring a concrete floor, patio, walkway, or any type of slab.
Screeding is done many different ways like kick screeding, sawing back & forth, screeding off screed rails or pipes and using a power screed.
Kick screeding concrete is how I was taught and this video of us pouring a garage floor shows you how effective and easy it is after you learn the process.

I worked in concrete from 2003-7. We used to screed 1000 yards of of parking lots. Man I miss those brutal workouts I was in my early 20's. Now in my 40's I'd bet I'd pass out if I grabbed a come a long in the brutal heat.


Keep up the good work.

Top man for sharing your knowledge Mike, it's helping my finishing out alot. I'm getting much better finished and not fighting myself as I go, so much less stressful. Concrete can make a fool out of anyone.

I used to see many guys with a bump screed for 30 plus min to get the bumps out then being to late to bull float it and got more and more behind the time frame by time they were to use power float the edges were bone dry hard watching u guys is like Xmas what a crew blessings to u mike and ur team ⭐️⭐️⭐️

[sams]

Shows how much old timers and experience taught to you guys by the way they move their boots back as they screen.. experience is a valuable trade on its own right so great work men 👍

This is an expertly produced video. It’s really good how you narrated AFTER the video was shot . It makes it really easy to hear what you are saying and not distracting like when you tubers talk during the shoot

[TheStonedBonsai]

These videos are always great to watch right before a big pour when your still learning

[mikemaben]

Your 2 bulls know how to cut mud.
Looks great mike

[psidvicious]

Very nice job on the initial pour out, especially with the slope, pouring not too much, but not too little, without any grade stakes to eyeball off of, to be able to screed properly and not wear the come-along guy out.

[viankalobosvalenzuela]

Another great job and an excellent group of professionals greetings from san felipe chile

[stevieowen]

Good job with the explanation on how you guys do it “right” I’ve been finishing concrete for over 20 years and your channel is the first one I came across that show you know what you are doing! Keep up the good work guys.

[spambunny]

Wish I had the balls to screed like that nice work Gents

[monk]

That was a nifty screed lay, and yes it has given me value for me doing a slab on a 7m x 4m workshop, it will be 6 " deep. Hope my son gets into great tomorrow. Thanks for that.

[crazyhandshands]

They are pro's at what they do simply the BEST

[martythompson]

Great video Mike - your videos have inspired me to get back into concrete because of the things I’ve learned - after getting out of doing concrete for several years.

[joehardy]

I have to say after seeing some really bad videos. You guys are good, I have 20 years on
Straight edge and finishing concrete . It’s nice to see it done rite. Most of my pours are a 100 + yards

[JamesThomson-ok]

Simple, clear, informative and the results are great. Nice job guys. Thanks

[tommyg.]
