      Just a query. How do u stop mould growing on a concrete surface. Not how to clean it, as I have a pressure cleaner, but how to prevent it growing in the first instance.
      Its a shady area that is the problem.

    • @lisab3396
      @lisab3396 4 года назад +2

      @@Blue1Sapphire Simplest and cheapest method is 50/50 bleach. Mixed in a wide bucket and use a 12" wide very soft poly brittle broom like a boat deck brush. Dip the brush in the bleach, shake the brush to drop the excess into the bucket and then gently scrub the concrete. Don't get it on anything that you don't want to damage. >>> Like your nice grass lawn! Do this cleaning on a very cloudy day or at sun up before it gets too hot. You can go back and redo a scrub as you need. The first scrub and let sit will assure the mold will die and clean up. The second pass will assure a nice even clean concrete.
      Take your garden hose and wash down the concrete thoroughly!!
      Once dry, you can use a concrete sealer if you wish!
      Have fun, Cheers

    I did the same thing on a many of drive ways and it worked always, however i used bond to existing concrete chemical spray to open the pours of the concrete and “ versa bond tile mortar” don’t mix with water, mix with concrete bonding adhesive only, add a little play sand and spread; the adhesion is amazing, remember to pre-set the ground after through cleaning 🧹 with a concrete bonding adhesive, the same way they apply water in this video.
    My way requires speed and know how, cuz the versa bond and adhesives dry fast which is good for strong 💪 curing/bonding to the already set concrete. ( something like the quick bonding in “ easy sand 5 min plaster- which is amazing too for drywall.
    All the methods that they used in the video with the exception of the product. Are correct. I just use a different product but the methods are the same, Great job
    Even in my mixing of the “versa bond mortar “ I use ( bond to existing concrete adhesive in my mix, 🙅🏾not the same as in this video “ remember” the secret is the (coats )
    Do not try to get long term beauty in one coat 🤦🏼‍♂️ add up to three layers depending on the current condition of the concrete. This is only a “ skim coating “ process. * if you’re concrete project has more then 1/2” of damage. *Do Not attempt this process.
    *There’s another process for more than 1/2”damage resurfacing repair.

    Did a reseal to a smaller section of driveway sidewalk with $10 pail of quickcrete a few years ago. Removed the loose stuff with a broom, hosed it down and mixed material to soupy texture. Used a hand trowel to spread and finished with a seven inch asphalt brush. One coat has lasted three years. A down and dirty option compared to this time consuming effort. It looks fine, not close to the final outcome here but it is just a sidewalk.

    One thing I see with trades cleaning concrete or any other surface with a pressure washer is just using the various standard spray nozzles. I use a floor cleaner on the pressure washer. There are many benefits. The main two are, the reduced time which can increase profits and a better cleaned surface after. Then, clean the concrete surface with the nozzle.

    A tip for using a sprayer; Be sure that the sprayer has a pressure relief valve. Normal valve will open at approx 40 lbs. Take an auto or bicycle tire valve stem, drill a hole to accomodate the valve stem,put the valve stem inside the sprayer and pull through the hole.The hole should be toward the top of the sprayer above the liquid level. Set an air compressor at 30-35 lbs and fill.

    I notice when you were power washing with water that you were washing from the street side up toward the garage door, which is sloped. If I were doing it I would start at the high side (up by the garage doors) and let the dirty water flow down toward the street. That way you would not be letting dirty water at the high side of the drive contaminate the clean surface which is lower. Different strokes for different folks I guess. Good job I must add.

    The video was great - and very professionally done. You guys did an excellent job overall (narration, material application, thorough description of the tools used at each stage of the process)...and the end-result looks great! Pressure washing, taping at least twice, 3 coats of product, followed by 3 coats of sealer, and the requisite drying times between each coat. Plus, the labor component of at least two (and possibly three) people...in addition to the cost of the materials themselves. I couldn't help but to wonder about a cost-comparison between resurfacing that same area - and the cost of breaking out and replacing the concrete. Have you created a cost-comparison? As for myself, my motivation for carefully watching the entire video, was because the concrete in my 3-car garage (from the garage door...progressing two feet inward) is severely eroded and pock-marked due to road salt and slush that melted and fell from the vehicles (in Michigan). So, I'm evaluating my options to deal with this very pitted surface. How does your product hold-up in northern winter conditions? Will it maintain adhesion, or spall and delaminate? Once, again - great job, and great video!

    By the way, that part is the city sidewalk even though it's right in the homeowners driveway. They are not allowed to do anything to it, neither are you without a city bond & notifying the city before any work is performed on it. That may not be true in the city you're in but it stands true in most places, you might want to let your customer know that because most of them don't know that either, big fines! They can paint the driveway with anything their heart desires from the expansion joint on. They could have the approach torn out & replaced if they want after notice is given to the city & it has to be a contractor with a bond on file with the city but they won't let anyone put a bandaid on it, tear out and replace is the only way.

      @@Smokey420Greenleaf Not something they did wrong on the job. Look closer and you'll see those are marks that are actually the concrete itself. Plus, they're using a brush to match the pattern on the slab which originally had a brushed look to it for better grip.
      The color will match the rest of the surrounding concrete as it ages and sees vehicle/foot traffic and inevitable dirt lol

    It seems doable. You make it look so easy.
    But I'll need to do four 6'x10' slabs of driveway.
    But some parts of those slabs have cracked and fallen down, up to an inch or two below the driveway.
    Does this system level everything out, or does that situation require more intensive repair methods?

    • @lisat9707
      @lisat9707 10 месяцев назад +1

      For that kind of slab movement you have massive underlying issues under that slab. Look at where your downspouts are draining and check to make sure it's finally settled and not moving more.
      Once it's stable that's when you can look at options to resurface it. Concrete levelling grinding and filling followed by a epoxy finish would be an idea. I'm curious to know if this method works in areas where temps are expressly cold and how well ice may stick to it

    Holy moly!!! This was a 200 sq ft job and at $17.50 a foot thats $3,500!!! And that's not even including the tape, squeegee, broom and probably $1000 worth of water. By the way, I'm not sure if he mentioned the fact that you have to keep the surface hydrated. Did he?? I'm sure I heard that somewhere... 😜.

    • @terryq9966
      @terryq9966 4 года назад

      @@LeggariProducts Sorry, John Pyle (down about 10 comments) posted the cost based on following the link. I just checked the link and indeed he was WAY off on cost. But for a 100 to 250 square foot project it's closer to $3-$4 a foot. The lower price is more around the 2,000 ft mark. Still, all-in-all a whole lot better than ripping out and replacing. Something for next year's budget...😉
