You definitely make it look simple and DIY friendly. Doesn’t seem so intimidating.
Clean and tight slab for sure - should last many decades!

That is the nicest shed slab ever. Great work. Love the dedication to getting perfect results
Wow, thanks!
Thanks guys. Starting my shed soon so perfect timing.
Ofc no problem hopefully this helps!
I know what this job takes... and I give credit to your lower back... cuz you sure as hell got one strong lower back..... RESPECT
This is an art form. Nicely done.
No pun intended?
I like your dedication for what you love to do and bring those greens!!! Great video/tutorial.
Beautiful work - I tried a bit of screening last year and didn't do too badly but I love what you've done here as a professional in your trade. Keep it up and thanks for the insightful and educational video. Well done ❤
Keep it up you’ll be a pro in no time! Thanks for watching Charles

Nice job. Clean work and I am glad you worked the excess concrete off of the bottom of the pour after you stripped the forms. Good clean work.

This is the best ever I have had since. It's too lovely to put a shed on.
I concur
Dude! Perfectionism! Nice work!
Work of art right there!
Very clean
I did one if these for my Mom's few years ago
Enjoyed the vid. My brother and I are going to pour a pad for his shed. Neither of us have done it before, so this should help. Thanks!

Awesome job. You do amazing work.

Very nice. Im a DIY guy. Never pissed w concrete. Plan on doing something about this size when the weather breaks. Thanks for the tips
Looks great man. This will help me a lot!
From one tradesmen (electrician) to another, clean work!
Last year I poured a slab for a new shed I built what a difference over buying a shed with a wood floor. Tuff shed had no problem with building over the concrete slab they tied into the slab with the walls and now it's liking walking into a small garage.
This is a work of art! Beautiful!
Wow, thank you!
so relaxing and satisfying to watch!

Great job Tyler, good work 👍
Thanks Jonny!
Beautiful job!

Well done! Thank you for sharing. I just did my 1st concrete slab, 5' x 7' x 3.5", did a "dry pour", it is curing now, looks o.k., but some rocks on surface. After reading your comment about crumbling, will likely forgo "dry pour" and go with traditional mixing in the future.
YOU SHOULD HAVE SHAKED AND BAKED WITH THE WOOD 2X4, THAT WOULD HAVE REMOVED THE ROCKS

Can you give us an idea how much would that cost? Parts and labor. Thanks! Great work!
Planning to build a 16x24 shed this summer. Will bookmark this video for sure

Nice tidy job ,,, Northern Ireland

Nicely done. New boss!

Great job! Thank you.
Our pleasure!
I use the " 50 50 broom " as well. Best broom IMO for most jobs. Leaves great lines. I'll use the 100 % plastic broom on certain jobs though too.
The only way to go
What is the 50 50 broom?
@@treeamigo8447 it's 50 %synthetic 50% horse hair

Cool thanks

Nice job 👍
Awesome video! Thanks for the detail in it!
Gday from Australia
Thanks for watching!
Nice work.
Great video. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
You do amazing work. Wish you were in my neighborhood.
I did my own pad like this last summer. Got a couple quotes for around $2500 in Canada.
Ordered mix from a company that charges by the 1/4 yard. Cost me $550 and did it myself in a day total (prepped the day before and poured the next day)
I wet cured it for 3 weeks and when I drilled my baseplate in, it was by far the hardest concrete I've ever drilled through.
Nice work
Well done 💪👍
Thank you! 🫡
Good morning from Auckland, New Zealand. 🙂🙂🙂
You guys still shut down from covid ?
Hello Peter
Great how to
Awesome 👍
ty
wow i do admire your efforts put on making this conc slab. you are making the master piece of the slab haha amazing. i could not imagine if you hired someone to do this work and granted amazing amounts of dollars
Thank you very much!
From all the concrete RUclips peeps I watch, I like the 50/50 horse 🐴 broom best. I’ve noticed it gives it a smoother finish, and still maintains a matte, satin reflection on the concrete while still providing traction. Other guys, with different brooms it seems too coarse texture with deeper lines which looks lower quality
Well said and I concur
Wait, someone makes a horsehair broom?
Damn, I've been dragging a horse through concrete to finish it.
Nice touch
Hello
I’m seeing lots of people jumping on this “Dry pour” Fad here on YT
I try to explain to them that it’s not going to create a product that will last.
In my younger days I had a vinyl liner pool company and we did the decks around the pool slide and diving board. I would call in my concrete buddies for large pours. So I think I know what I’m talking about.
But would really appreciate your take on the Dry Pour idea
Thanks @@OdellCompleteConcrete
Nicely done
Thank you! Cheers!
Nicely done ✔️
Thanks for the visito
Beautiful job, body!
TY
You guys inspired me to do multiple pads in my backyard and a retaining wall planter in the corner! Thanks for all of the detailed videos. In some of my first slabs, there are some low spots where water pools… is there anyway to fix it?
You can patch the spots with something like Ardex CP. Then using the same product do a thin coat over the whole surface(after proper mechanical grinding) and apply a broom finish. I do it all the time.
Very cool
Thank you!
Good job

Tyler, you made this work of art look so easy. You nicely compressed 12 hours into 12 minutes for this video. I have never worked with concrete, but I want to make my own pad for mounting two 300 gallon fuel tanks. To be honest, it scares the bejeebers out of me. I feel like its a race against the clock so you better prepared and know what you're doing or you'll end up with two cubic yards of boat anchor. What are your thoughts on dry pouring? And, can you come to my house and do this pad for me? 😂😂😂
Dry pours crumble in no time
Nice!
Thank you!
Sweet 👍
Thank you!
A PROFESSIONAL CAME TO MY PREVIOUS HOUSE TO DO A BIG SLAB IN THE BACKYARD, HE ASKED ME HOW I WANTED THE STRESS JOINTS MADE, CONTROL JOINTS, I DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT, HE RECOMMENDED THE COMPLETE CUT, I SAID OK, A WEEK LATER I HAD WEED COMING OUT OF EACH LARGE SQUARE IN ALL DIRECTIONS, HE HAD CUT THE CONTROL JOINTS WHEN IT WAS ALMOST DRIED, WHICH LED TO CHIPS EVERYWHERE IN THE STRESS CUTS. I PAID THE GUY AND I LEARNED A VALUABLE LESSON ON CONCRETE. I COULD HAVE BEEN A JERK AND NOT PAID HIM, BUT IT'S A LESSON I LEARNED.
Horsehair all day 💪🏾 good work
You already know!
What a great job 👏 keep up the good work. My wife tells me I shop do this in are backyard. Seems to much work for me to do by myself.
Maybe

와우~~~
깔끔하네요.
Ty
Nice 👍
Thanks!
good job
Thank you!
Great work! what kind of concrete machine pump did you all use for your project ?
Very nice, How do you clean the under edges of pour once you take the frame off?
Could have done it solo, but you had your boy Lolo 😆
I was wondering about why are you cutting a groove on the edges? Why are you cutting a joint at the middle of the slab?
My witch's broom, it makes it magical lol

I Appreciate You
Thanks for watching!
Great video. I also made a detailed video of a concrete hot rub pad.
Nice thanks for watching!
Would be nice to see it with the shed on it
I’ll ask the homeowner if he finished the build
To me the hardest part is the site prep and making sure everything is square and level.
Yea I hear ya, my back was killing me on this setup
Who needs crosstraining BS when you got concrete work! I stayed for the vid 'cause you went to town on those 8-inch roots!
I'm appreciating your work from rural Uruguay in South America. I'm amazed at the quality and attention to detail of your work.
Just here also trying to learn from you, as I plan to make myself a shop out here in the middle of nowhere, fighting against third world problems, like not being able to get a cement truck here, or having access to any of those pre-mixed concretes that you have north of the equator... just sand, crushed rock, portland cement and my hands and back 😂🥲
That makes it difficult.
Good work make more videos
Okay I got more coming up!
Aren't you supposed to put compressed gravel down between the dirt and slab?
Great videos, much appreciated. I notice that you don’t always use gravel and seldom vapor barriers. Can you tell us when they are needed and when they are not?
Did you do a fall from back to front and then cut a line across it ? Would a line not have worked better from back to front also - will water not pool now in that joint ?
