We stamped 10 yards Ashlar Slate today. You’re right, it was miserable outside. The heat will break you. Nice work👌
Heat kills
Love watching this video! Love hearing the float going over the concrete and rocks! ASMR video too, right! :D Great teaching on how to do all of these processes. Thank you so much! 😊💖🙏
I concur
TY
Great work!
Looks good guys, love the workman ship and matching colors!
Yeah tried to get it as close as possible
Love your work man. I’m just starting out my business and your tricks and tips help so much!
That’s awesome glad to hear it!
That’s amazing!…I actually thought you couldn’t bring that rock to show, but you did!… it was a race against time….nice job…..
Yes it was.
TY
Anyone that does concrete know what a race against time means.
Glad to see Tim again !!!
TY
Great job
Wow, that was a nice video, easy to understand and covers over the necessary details. Thanks
Beautiful work.
Thank you! Cheers!
I never knew I cared about how the exposed aggregate look is done, but I'm glad I now know. Thanks for the video!
I'm about to try an exposed aggregate match like this, great video!

Super cool video,GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY
You to
TY
Thanks so much, I live in North Carolina, and building my house in El Salvador I learning a lot from your videos appreciate you sharing 👍🏼
GL
I enjoyed the video, thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Looks awesome 💪💪
TY
Looks great
Thanks!
That was dope!
TY
Never done that before but now I know ! Thanks 👍
Glad to help
I used to do concrete and we used to put powdered sugar in a water sprayer and put it on fresh pour. Come back hour later and spray off with hose. Always looked good
Sugar works
that matched pretty darn good.

Good job. O'Dell

Only 75 in St. Louis we poured 120 yards of paving which is small so it was a nice easy day
I find your voice so soothing David
TY
Looked alright in the end, I guess !
Well done.
👍
That finish looks perfect! Well done team. Love your videos.
TY
Excellent video, often wondered how that finish was accomplished...
TY
generally it's not like this... usually you seed the stones, let it cure completely and then run a buffer over it to take off the hardened layer of cement, then the stones are exposed but also the entire surface is flat... the technique in the video leaves a rounded rock surface, not flat everywhere... also these WILL pop out over time due to that
Matched great came out nice, but ur right that mix was pretty gritty
Nasty stuff
Man that came out nice
Ty
Love your videos! BUT, my back always hurts watching you guys work!😂😂😂😂
It happens
TY
Nice job, it might go easier on him next time if he uses a wood bull float or wood darby (36 or 48 inch) to help set the aggregate initially. When I do exposed aggregate, I use all wood tools except for edging, then a mag with no marks or lines and then do the process of just waiting it out.
Definitely worth a try
TY
Nice job. Always against the clock with concrete, especially in that heat. Here in Scotland we seldom have that problem.
Ty and yeah it was a close call 😅
I appreciate ya....
I have old exposed agg concrete pavers/steppers. Can I resurface these to get a smooth concrete look?
Is there any advantage to doing this over using a concrete retarder? Seems like more work. Maybe you talked about it in the video and I missed it
In other exposed aggregate videos you say to pour about a half-inch short to make space for the rise after putting in the seed. In this video you don't say that, and it looks they poured right up to the level before throwing seed, so did it it raise up or what?
Just saw your video. I see that it is about one year old, so not sure you would respond to a question. But I will try. Could this process be applied to a sloped walk-in shower floor? Thanks
What's the pricing range difference between traditional trowel or broom finished concrete vs exposed aggregate per sq. ft?
Nice work, will the pebbled floor not slippery since they are smooth & rounded
No because it's not a heavy coverage
He worked hard on that due to the heat think 90 is about 32 degrees in uk money thats some hot 🔥 stuff.
Dave here the concrete dont set quick is there something you can spray on top set it quicker to be able to hose off the cream .never done this but that would be my worry getting it to set .wales isnt hot .
Thanks mate and great videos 🏴🇬🇧🇺🇸👍👍
Concrete additives for fast or slow curing

Ok thanks Dave appreciate it 👍
1st again. good job
Nice and Ty
How do you get started as an apprentice in this type of thing? Would LOVE to help design Rock Gardens! Thanks for ANY advice! Love and appreciate your videos.

Get hired on as a labor and work your way up
@@OdellCompleteConcrete Thank you! Know of any concrete outfits hiring for a 50-year old Woman? ☺️
What type of aggragate rock is that?
Sir please give full video including materials
Hi Odell as you know here in Iraq we work under 122 F° so its been to hot but we rather did the stamp concrete before sunset .
I'd like to ask you ... Is it worth to work like these mini projects about 9 m2 and you guys 6 and your trucks and that under the heat with waiting almost 4 hrs , is it really worth ? How much the square foot or square metre cost to cover this small project???
Sounds like Vegas

Sweet video 👍
Ty!
That's crazy they do it like that incali, I've seen it done like this b4 in the west, but we do it the other way.
Don’t always do it like this but when they are small enough we can
@@OdellCompleteConcrete that's what's up!
when would you use a magnesium trowel ,wood ,or steel towel in which order
Wood is for roughing up cream to make mag floating easier. Magnesium floats are for making everything flatter and somewhat smooth. Steel trowel is used to "burn in or hard trowel" the concrete like what you would see in garages or basement floors. In warmer climates they trowel a lot of their work. In more freeze & thaw climates you really want to stay away from steel troweling outdoor concrete.
I concur
Is it cheaper to order a truck vs buy bag concrete and sand and gravel? Or just easier?
faster and easier
I would of put in a mini golf hole personally, but great work.
That sound good
I remember my first exposed job too lol
Me too
Sugar water in a bug sprayer after seeding keeps the cream on top from hardening on a hot day. Same as a retarder but 1/10th the cost.
Yeah it was a struggle since we had to return that little u-cart on such a hot day with direct sunlight
Rugasol is the go these days, way more even doesn't leave patches and holds longer.
Hello, looks great. That is interesting, united rentals will rent you the concrete mixing trailer, fill it with a yard of material. Can you specify the mix, stone, cement etc. Would you mind sharing how much the rental of the trailer and the yard of material costs. Thank you.
Yes, 1 yard maximum about 350.00. PSI ranges from 2500 to 3500
Here in the midwest a truck was 140 a yard. 50.00 short load fee 17.50 fuel surcharge. Was about 400.00 for 2.25 yards. 2.25 yards from another company was 440.00
And the 3rd company was 526.00 for 3 yard minimum
thank you very much , do you use this system often
What’s the cost of diesel in la area right now ?

I know my question is probably out of your scope of expertise.......
How effective would this be as a non-slip surface underwater with algae..... like a boat ramp?
If you know, thanks.
I still hit the thumbs up 👍 button to feed the algorithm monsters.
Not good
TY
@@OdellCompleteConcrete
Thank you, too.
👍💪😎
Isn't it bad for concrete to cure too quickly?
Yes
👍
So Quickcrete is a no no?You want a slower drying concrete?
Why they didn't put rebar?
To small
Personally I like , an prefer that exposed aggregate look myself .
Nice look and strong
😂 damn I thought you getting your rails stuck was bad! Rookie! Haha nah you’ll learn by force or by choice.

Looks nice but after a couple freeze thaw cycles they start to shed . Looks like you are in a more arid climate so may work better than where I live
No freezing in Southern CA. where its beach weather everyday
Looks identical to me can’t even tell the difference
Awesome
TY
I need to call a customer back...
OSS
ford ganng
Yes sir
You are good at a lot of different concrete finishes, with that being said exposed is not one of them. Sorry
TY
First
Right on
TY
Well done , after how long you waited to wash off n broom to expose aggregates?
Thank you
Yesterday
What is the name and size of the decorative rocks you used? ⅜"?
Great work!

Great job
