You never cease to amaze me Mike ! That looked like a major job but you made it look simple. Nothing like experience mixed with common sense ! Great job 👍
Another fine example of how to get it done. The confidence you instill in us weekend-warriors is addictive, I'm tackling all kinds of masonry and concrete projects around my house now. What's the worst that could happen, I actually gain experience and learn something? If I get in over my head then it's back to hiring it out and I've lost nothing. Thanks Mike!
Same here. the wife mixes the Portland paint and the mortar. knowing when to use the sponge helps a lot. 3 years plus is still looking great. thanks honest Mike! or did he drive off in the truck?
Thank you for these videos. I have a small cracked concrete stoop with a broken corner. Thought I would have to tear out the porch and cedar siding to replace it. Your videos give me confidence to repair it myself.
Thanks Mike, I needed a good laugh. "We get in that truck as fast as we can😂. I like the guest appearance s from your nephew, and honest Mike. Thanks for the laugh. I needed that.
I Don’t know if I’ve ever shared my thoughts about how much I’ve learned from Mr. Mike Haduck and from @Mr. Kirk Giordano and family but I was able to get a painting job from one painter and he was ecstatic and because I could patch. Painter/patcher by trade but after watching me go to work on time and clean up my work station before leaving he ended up giving me a $2.00 raise just to show me that he appreciated it.countless hours of watching haddock and Giordano’s I had decided to make my own business cards and and I have slowed down since. If it’s concrete, nor stucco. I paint. My other speciality is to install the shluter system and time which are true, plum and level. Thanks you guy’s
Thanks Mike. I’ve been watching your content and applying what you have shown to my fixer upper house in Puerto Rico. Being the house is all block/cement, I’ll have plenty of opportunity to practice. If you ever want to do some work in a Puerto Rico, I’ll be glad to provide the trip! Thank you from Michigan!
@@MikeHaduck I asked about using mortar vs portland and I am watching this again. I see the text that if you used portland and sand you would have and leave the forms. I was wondering why mortar vs portand and that is the answer. Thanks for that detail. I have looked at a lot of videos trying to figure out the best way to fix my porch and this is the best one. perfect for me. thanks again.
Hi Daniel, here I am using rapid set mortar mix which is very fast drying and acts like portland, traditional Portland takes at least a day or more to set up, big difference in time factor, thanks mike
Thanks for all the tips and tricks on all of your videos. But when you said if the form don't hold we get on that truck and get the hell out off here. That just kill it. Lol
The porch looks much better, Mike. Not too sure about the red paint job, but that was the owner's decision and everybody's got their own taste. As for your answer to your nephew's, "Hey Uncle Mike, what if...?" Is it true that you always plan out your escape route for every job, in case things go South? Keep up the great work!
Carpet on a porch... what an "original" idea hehehe Excellent job and a pleasure to watch you work, always learning something from you -- Greetings from Southern Europe Mike!
Perfect timing on this video u posted Mike. I gotta fix a 4ft wall for my parents that holds dirt&grass at the end of the garage. It looks like the same thing that the porch u fixed looks like it's falling apart at the top 1 1/2feet with a couple cracks like the one in ur video, we got the same freeze&thaw weather here in wisconsin like u do there. Should I paint it with portland first to help it bond or just wet it down good like u did? Also how should I charge them, a flat rate or time& materials? LOL!! Just kidding on charging them! Thanx for another great video & for answering my questions & nice one on ur nephew asking what to do if it falls apart when u pull the forms! Get in ur truck & take off fast, hilarious!! Always a pleasure watching ur videos!!👍 Take care.
Hello Mike. Thanks again for your videos on concrete repair. I have learned so much from you. I have a similar job to do to repair a porch slab 8 ft x 30ft, but the slab has had several repairs. The top surface on most of the slab is in poor shape showing agregate rocks like in this video, except for one area. The surface on that area is in relatively good condition but it is about 1 inch higher in elevation. It used to be a small room that has since been removed. My plan is to resurface the areas in poor condition to match the elevation of that one good area. The question is: what concrete mix would you recommend?
Hi user, I can't answer that unless I was there to see it, there is lots of different ways and products, I would ask some of the carpet layers or tile layers, thanks Mike
Looks great. I'm sure they will call you back when it needs to be completely replaced. Would spaying some type of water proofing help protect the concrete? Our friend in Mendocino County, CA is thinking of water proofing his concrete. Mendocino County gets a lot of rain in the winter and moister. Fyi it's near Eureka, CA.... Thank you again for sharing your videos 🙏
My wife asked the same question Mike when you said you got the sponges from your cousins truck seat . She said I bet he got upset lol I said he just saved a couple bucks lol
Need help Mike! under my Rain gutter is a 3'x 3' slab that is next another 3'x 3' slap. What product is the best to adhere to and float the sunken (1-1/2" down to 1/8" which is but up against the next slab?
Hi Jason, I have a video called basement water problem solutions, Mike haduck, watch that first then a 3 by 3 I would probably rip it out and do it over after the ground is sloped properly away from the house, I am not there to see it so I am assuming, thanks Mike
Great job. Have you ever mixed rapid set mortar with S mortar for a job like that? Just curious how it would set up. I really enjoy your videos, thank you for posting.
Did you work with your dad when you were a kid Mike? I did from the time I could crawl up into the truck (well driller). Older I get the more I realized how much I learned.
I was the youngest in a large family and from the time I was three my mother used to send me out with my older brother driving round in a truck which was great, I thought I would be doing this forever and got the shock of my life when they packed me off to school at five . Never really recovered to this day .
I love Rapid Set products. I personally like using their set additive, that way it gives me more working time. Thanks again Mike. Love all your videos.
Hi Mike, I’ve been working on my front porch which is identical to the one you’re working on. Question: will there be seams showing between each new batch of mortar as you connect each new pour after removing the form? Thank you, Ted
Mike, question for you, if you're willing to indulge - I have a thin slate patio set on a concrete slab. One of the corner pieces, approximately 14"X14" popped off. The morter is quite thin underneath - was considering cleaning it up a little and setting in a polyurethane construction adhesive. (I have an open tube I need to use) :) Am I way off or is that an okay fix?
Great video just what I needed to see how it’s done! I have the identical problem and the porch looks identical with overhang. You mentioned in your video you could use other type product drying time would be to leave the forms overnight, that would be no problem. What would you suggest to use? Not being experienced using that rapid motor set I would feel better using a material that gives me time to work with it. And after removing the forms what product would I use to fill in the voids. You mentioned Portland and sand, do I use your regular mix? Two sand to one Portland? Thank you, Ted
Hi Ted, I use to use 1 portland to 1 1/2 sand but it shrinks and it takes a few days before you can walk on it, I have another video same thing coming up next t werk, thanks mike
I need some advice..i want to build a stone wall / railing onto a 5 ft wall. Theres a 5 ft drop off into my driveway. Can this wall hold the stones to build a safety railing. Please help. Thankyou.
That porch is nearly identical to my own. The aluminum columns are the same and the block with crumbling parking with brown paint is the same. You weren't asked to clean that and patch?
@MikeHaduck I meant parging but spell check made it parking. I actually used the rapid set mortar on concrete driveway just to fill in spots. I tried lots of stuff, Re-cap after some DAP crack filler pealed off after a winter. I'm impressed by the rapid set.
On the corner where the patch was thick and there was an overhang, should you have also screwed some anchor screws to secure the patch to the existing?
10:10 "don't want no highness" Don't know if you ever watched Blackadder there Mike. I got a chuckle out of that, "your highness your highness" Did you get that dense rubber sponge float and leave it at home? Or was it filling a hole in your cousin's car seat?
Does anyone understand why Mike used Rapid Set Mortar mix on this porch cap and not Rapid Set Cement All? Is it because the porch cap in this video only needed the edges rebuilt? I'm confused why he sometimes uses the mortar mix on a repair and other times he uses the Cement All mix. He only used the Cement All as a final coat on this repair. Why didn't he just use it for the whole job? Would that not have worked? Is the mortar mix easier to work with than the Cement All? Or is there another simple reason that I'm just not understanding? In an earlier video, Mike says to use mortar for vertical applications and cement/concrete for horizontal applications. But then I see Mike patch a driveway (a horizontal application) in one of his videos using Rapid Set Mortar mix. If someone could explain this, I would really appreciate it
In my mind they are the same stuff, one has sand in one dosen't, mortar mix is easier to use, I don't know why they call it mortar because it hardens like concrete, so I use the motar mix more often, thanks mike
I recently bought special porch paint and it had coarse sand in it to offer traction in slippery conditions. It's a much better option than carpet if anyone is interested.
@@deadmanswife3625 You're welcome. I bought it at Lowe's if you are wanting to get some. You can have them make it any color you want like regular paint.
And they wonder why we have scrap wood all over the place...:)...They're little money makers...A chunk of scrap wood, in the right hands, can make a guy a couple hundred bucks...
