Very informative. I am a surveyor who is studying about saw cuts to improve at what I do. Thanks for posting.

[tealtornado]

Nice job! I think symetrically as well. It HAS to look right or it'll bug me every time I look at it! Great work! God bless!

[scottboyington]

Did you every try the Polynomic sand on the driveway cracks? Nice driveway

[bartjackson]

Glad your concrete is done. Watch those areas where erosion can wear!

Another informative video. How is the drywall/mold problem coming along?

[surgeonwings]

I was looking for the video you referenced where you poured the small slab yourself and I cannot find it for the life of me lol

the sidewalk seems redundant without railings on the porch

Thanks for the video mate. The concreter I hired hasn't put any foam between the concrete and my house walls and the other end of the concrete is touching the retaining walls. Would you be able to advise please as to how to fix that or if that would be a problem at all?

Can we cut control joints into concrete 1 week after pouring concrete? How deep should the cuts be for a concrete slab?

[MagnumVideos]

Great video. We built a new house two years ago. They saw cut the basement floor. I could be wrong, but it appears one of the saw cuts has gotten wider. Is that possible from shrinkage?

[scottboyington]

How wide are these control joint lines

What are your thoughts on rebar vs. fiber reinforced? I’m sure rebar is cheaper, but is the alternative easier? Better? Worse?

Keep up the great work!

You mention that homeowners need to put dirt at the edge of the concrete. When I saw your work I wondered why you don’t put a downturn at the edge of the concrete. I use a 10” downturn, another words the edge of my concrete work is formed with a 10” concrete board and I dig 10” back so you end up with a very custom job. Your doing the minimum. I can see the gravel under the concrete.

What is the difference Densifier and Sealer ?

[mitchthompson]

Did you use concrete joint filler on the cuts in the house too?

[larryb]

What kind of rock do you use sub slab? to you use different sizes and build it up i.e. 1/2 inch then Crush and Run or do you use all the same size?

What is the time frame I can make relief cuts after pour.
