    I was a salesman for a large ready mix supplier in Southern California who unlike many of my colleagues started my career in concrete as a laborer on a pool deck crew and eventually retired as a regional salesman for a integral color company. . I learned to set forms and finish which proved valuable when working with both large and small contractors. All that to say this...I would have loved to have you as a customer. In all my years in the "biz" I ran across few contractors with the depth of knowledge and hands on experience you exhibit. It's no wonder you're a huge success....It ain't mud, it's concrete!!

      And as we go down the bumpy road of demographic collapse (not to mention other forms of collapse), there will be even fewer people (like the ones above) who have such high skill levels.

    Question for ya: to save on cost, would a concrete company normally allow me to excavate, compact, put down base and form up the area and put down rebar, so all they have to do is pour and make it pretty? Trying to save cost as much as possible cause it's a 11x30 slab I need poured.

  • @MrMiss
    @MrMiss 2 года назад +1

    Hi there Odell. Amazing work as always. I notice you mentioned the concrete was 3500 PSI but in the UK what would be the mix for a shed base using a mixer and concrete? Which type of sand etc. For brick laying over here it's typically a 4 part building sand with one part concrete as far as I'm aware but for a shed base what would be a good mix? Many thanks and apologies for disturbing you.

    I notice you don't use much expansion strips when you butt up against a building or existing concrete. Most of the contractors use them in my area in the Midwest.
