Finally we had a good day pouring in the cold.

- This was the third pour we had on this job at a total of 110 yards of concrete. This was the best pour we had at these townhouses. We fought the cold weather to get this done so the builder could start the framing.
Well, the builder learned a valuable lesson, if want level block work hire you guys for all the work.
Yup. LOL
where's the concrete blankets???
What part of upstate Ny do you guys work out of?
Nice work Bondo, going all the way to Syracuse, glad you pleased another client
The good days are always owed to you, as you have already paid in advance for them by getting through the challenging days. Great job, nice to see you rewarded occasionally with a productive day w/o any drama. Ray
are ya liking these larger pours working for a contractor more than working with your own crew on smaller jobs, or just like the variety?
Love these videos well done. God bless you.
Good to see Big Biscuit on the job.👍
Damn nice concrete work I’d say!
Thank you.
Good work Bondo. I bet the gc was happy with you for making it level and not going by the block layers blocks lol
Stay away from shorts bro... they can ruin a channel. Fyi keep it as a filler fir this stuff. U r doing awesome bro
Thanks buddy. I only do the shorts once in a while. Do you make much $ doing shorts?
I smashed the like button at one hour and I’m #80. Now you’re up to #132. Pretty impressive Rondo Bondo. I have many questions. Time from start to finish just to unload mud? How many men to just put down mud…not to finish. Did builder estimate amount of mud and did he pay for it?
Hi uncle Jim. I think we were done around 3.5 to 4 hours with the 40 yards There weree 7 of us to put it down and we figured out the yardage but he paid for the concrete.
Great job in tough > cold < weather! Builder must not care about weather effects on construction materials- like concrete- or the people who manipulate the tools to construct t project. So, if builder wants to build in freezing temperatures, then you charge him (++$$) 'Harsh Weather' working conditions "up $charge'. He understood the need for a pumping truck due to long distance. He had to pay$ for that. So also he had to pay for the conveyor belt/long reach unit$. So Bondo, you should have a 'Harsh Weather' up charge$ to compensate your qualified workers/technicians to work in Harsh Weather/combat conditions, aye?🎉😊
Those conveyor sleeves should have a rope or handles glued or bolted right to them. I know they wouldn't always be in the position for every angle but it beats holding the fold.
Nice day lots of good help trucks on time.
Yes it was a great day.
At 8:28, 'I don't like super wet concrete'. I like hearing that. It means you're not afraid to work the concrete rather than expect it to almost self-level. AND very few shrinkage cracks.
Thanks and that is the truth for sure.
Didn't see Biscuit there. Hmmm. All those service pipes everywhere to work around. Good thing you had a big crew for this one.
Biscuit was there lol
What if we had to sign everything we did? Would we do better jobs, not cut corners, or take the "shortest" cuts? Our son frames houses. He signs his name and the date on a rafter when he's finished. When we asked him, "Why do you do that? Nobody is going to see it or even know." He answered, "I'll know." That's why we want to do better and be better when we know better (learning more while we watch the BB crew).
Thanks that is how I feel like when we video everything. We are not hiding anything and we do our best work and share it will everyone. 😀
That gc should just hire you to do the block too!
Good Job! You and your workers do a good work!
Might be a dumb question, but why block and not all concrete. Cheaper?
Yes it is cheaper
nice smooth pour with no hiccups! u
love to see it
Try # 3 and we nailed it buddy. LOL
You did a good job you and the crew have a 🍺 beer and take it in a good mason always has a beer 🍺
Thanks David we will have that cold beer. 😀
22 👍's up BB thank you for sharing 🌞
Beautiful job!!!
Awesome, as usual. I can't believe they aren't blanketing this pours. Getting down to 20 would scare me.
job well done ron
Question Bondo. @17:20, the concrete truck mixer is spinning to the right (clockwise) as it pulls in, but when it's ready to dump into conveyor it starts spinning the opposite direction (counter clockwise). Why is that? Nice work.
Did a pump job feb28 that the inspector was told was 100 yards, The pump truck was told 120yards, our dispatch was told 160 yards, and the job ended at 210 yards.
And the best part was this pier wall was exactly where we put down 80 yard last summer for harbor tie points. The dredge hit bedrock, the whole plan go changed and they had to pull out all of the work we did last year…
That’s your tax dollars at work folks, designing shipping ports without doing core samples.
My first house had a foundation where the block dropped 3" over the 40' length of the house. It was level front to back but the length was built for drainage.
No wonder American houses are not durable with that little rebars. It is crazy. Do you have engineers working on that?
This will probably be a winter 🥶 to remember for you and the crew but take it while you can earn it . Enjoy watching your videos 😊
A winter money job, at a time when you live on savings, your bank account is getting a repreive on going down.
This warm weather must be nice to be able to work and have income.
.
I like watching your videos. Not much radiant heat used down here in Texas.
biscuit is still orange whether he has a shirt on or not!
Yup Greg. lol 😂
Don’t forget to remind the builder to you in mind when the time comes to do concrete driveways and paths.
Thanks!!
Love your dogs, reminds me of our pair we had! You guys do great work!
what's the difference in cost from conveyer to pump?
About half
About $1100 more for pump.
Nice work brother.👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
your dogs sound like our dogs when they play
Loan the block layers your string and level. Nice kitchen floors too. Did one of your buddies cut the trees and mill the lumber.
im pretty sure he milled most of his own lumber
Yup I did 😀@@ReganServicesInc
I milled my entire house and it is a tiimberframe with not one piece of sheetrock. All wood inside.
hopefully the builder pays you, seems like bad planning and shit work he does....sorry
How you know he does shit work
Bondo, how would someone contact you for doing concrete work?
By phone more than likely
Send me an email. Rbond360@yahoo.com
Guess you’ve got a cousin that sells the wire mesh? Can’t figure what else it could be for.😁
Funny.. did old timers use it. I really don't think it serves a purpose...and does the fiber mesh really work .
How does one get a hold of you?
I'm into the techno music
Stay thirsty
👍
Is that the finish on one of the finished slabs at @4:10 ??
If it is that is absolutely shocking. Looks like it got one pass with the power float & the couldn't be arsed to finish it.
But if the blockwork is that out of level also then quality doesn't seem to be a priority, it's no good the main contractor moaning he's not happy when the concrete is on site it should have been checked days before & rectified.
Those swirls had me scratching my head as well… 😂
That is hand floated and that is what he wanted in the garages for liability reasons so somebody will not slip on the wet garage floor. We did the first garage smoother and he did not want it that smooth so we gave him a more texture on the next 3 garages. He said that was exactly what he wanted. In the end it was his call on the finish not ours.
Hopefully this builder feeds you plenty of work, he seems like a good guy.
You might be doing concrete year round now.
Keep up the good work Ron.
If you’re going to keep doing this type of floor pour, get yourself a ride on finishing machine, you won’t be sorry! 😉👍 And you can have fun at the same time!👌
I have one but these are too small for the rider and to cold out. We only use it on real big floors.
@@bondobuilt386 Well, you have to admit, they are fun to ride around on. I think I would have brought it along just incase that previous floor had frozen on top, sometimes you can bring them back the next day with a big machine if they haven’t gone to far. I didn’t see any blankets.
I've seen better, not a smooth finish.
That is the finish the builder wanted.
Yes thanks. @@davidparker9676
