This video is a beginners guide to pouring concrete floors.
I'm showing and teaching you the exact methods I use when I pour a concrete floor for my customers.
I'm sharing all my tips and techniques I have used to successfully pour thousands of concrete floors over the years.
I've been in the concrete floor business since the early 1980's. Over the years I've refined my concrete floor pouring techniques to make it as easy and efficient as possible.
If you're thinking of pouring a concrete floor for yourself or if you're starting your own concrete business, this is a good video to watch and learn from.

"if he doesn't stop, there is something wrong with that concrete truck driver"
-Mike Day 2019
great vids man keep em comin
I watch Odel's Concrete because he makes the trade seem like a Grateful Dead concert. Mike's channel is educational and describes everything in such detail that if you watched them a few times and had a chance to practice, you'd be ok doing pretty much any concrete job. Very much like what you'd learn doing an apprenticeship. Thx
Odels the man !
Great job,. It'is confortable and glade work whits the girls ,she are stronger than rocky
Love the dog!!
Good info Thanks Good Job
THIS IS GOLD
Yep
Great job Mike, I work for a guy who makes it hard work, you and your guy's make it look easy. John from the UK
I hear that a lot John, we try to make it easy on each other.
Where is the best place to store the left over sealant especially in northern climate areas?
Hello mr mike I see many your videos good learning
We had our basment pour
And the concrete never dried Evan 6 hours later still wet then we had rain so we couldn’t finish
What u think ?? Ready mix people screw up my chemical mix ??
Pls let me know thanks
More than an awesome video with detailed instruction, THANKS. However I have a question regarding the reducer and adding water. My experience has always been as a helper and am not sure if the boss has reducer added or not, this seems to be a point of secrecy when I help and inquire about the mix or he really don't know himself. When we pour it always seems to go like this, truck arrives, everything is staged for the pour, the driver lets down a little concrete and the boss says were good or add 5 or 10, the driver pulls a lever runs the drums CW for a bit and we are usually are good to go. It seems pretty common for us to have to add water, but when you guys pour I don't see the fingers go up to add or you having to give verbal commands to add water at least not as often as we do. Thanks for any feed back and I appreciate your videos.
Some of the drivers we have a very good at getting the right slump the first time. But we do have to do just as you mentioned sometimes. Stop and give it 5 or 10 gallons. That is not unusual.
Do they add the water reducer at the plant or on site? Do you specify anything more that 3/4" stone for the aggregate? Do you do anything to test slump or just know what it's supposed to look like? Thanks so much for taking the time to put out these very helpful videos!!
Yes they add the water reducer when they batch the truck. We use 3/4" stone for all our floors and slabs, regular patios, driveways, pool decks and sidewalks. We only use 3/8 aggregate for stamped concrete and thin over-pours (1 1/2" - 2" thick cap floors)
How would grade down to a floor drain? Thanks for a great video!!
Tony, if the concrete isn't too wet, it'll slope by using a mag float. Just mag the slope into the concrete when you pour.
Are they those old snap ties in that wall
In Australia they wouldn't let us hang shit of there shoots. Looks handy
