Freezing temps, coming up short, keeping the slope even and leaving knowing it's gonna be right freezing over night - 35 years experience just emanates from you. I do remember one job where you came back at night because you knew you couldn't sleep until that problem was taken care of. I do hope Tom and Steven also learn how to deal w the stress of running the business as well as you. I'm a big fan of aggregate concrete, just beautiful. This was a pretty big job and it went so smoothly! Kudos to you and your crew. The finished work looked awesome. Thanks for sharing w us Tom!👌👍❤
Love the exposed agg. Still very popular here in Australia. Great job as always. When you had the patio on time lapse you really can see what an efficient team you have. Thanks for sharing, love your vids 👍
Fantastic video! You all work strong and hard, like a “well oiled machine”. You are not simply throwing concrete down, your work is always perfectly calculated and well thought out. Strong work everyone, as always!
Beautiful job! Great working together crew! I love watching the Hauses in the morning 🌞 with my first cup of coffee ☕️! 🫶🫶🫶
Another beautiful job by Tom and his sons and crew. Tom, you and your team always make your work look so easy and the outcome is always great. Great video and easy to follow all the stages of your job.👍👍👍
Great looking concrete. That's a nice look, the exposed aggregate. The process explanation is good also. Stay safe.
Another great video. Top notch work and the care you put into each of these jobs show.
You guys do great work, I love the videos and always look forward to the new ones
Tom, Lot's of good explanations in this video. Thank you for sharing that additional detail!
Another outstanding job. Always enjoyable watching you guys work from my nice warm comfortable chair.
AMEN
You men work so well together, to get it done!
Nice! I love your eye for details Tom, Steve & crew.....Greetings from the old jarhead in WNC
Great shot with the cam on the float. I wish more people put this much care into their work.
Looks terrific, as usual, great job!!!
There is still a hint of blue on the bottom of the Stone, concrete looks great though.
You and your crew are true professionals. Thank you God bless you all.
So soothing to watch!!! Beautiful finished product!!!
The exposed aggregate looks Great another terrific job.
Love the videos. My Dad, RIP, worked as a concrete manager for many years. I was contracting sidewalks, driveways, and street repairs for the City where i live, many years ago. We went from Calcium Chloride granules to ligiid High early.
Brings back memories for sure. Heard about you guys from Mike Morgan, Outdoors with the Morgans. Great family, cannot wait until you guys, if you can, pour slab for Mikes and Melissa's Cabin in WV. Thank You for binging us along on the adventures. I noticed they have a lot of new chemicals to use, and they work great. The exposed AGG is really nice ..ty from SE Texas Bear
Thanks for sharing. I really do enjoy reading these kind of comments
too funny when Steve said that the most Pittsburgh thing you say, Hasss!!!!!! you and Mike Morgan talk the same! You say At instead of out!!Lol!!! Keep on Rockin!!!!! Good video!! reminds me of the times we used to do a ton of flatwork!
It’s funny that you never think about yourself having an accent until you hear yourself talk hahaha thanks for watching!
That exposed look s the bomb. Super nice job. Cheers
Another fantastic job by Yinz guys
Thanks for sharing
Sleep y’all on the next one
Stay safe
Have a Day
Thanks for the tips! I will be sure to use them.
That driveway is great job. Well done to the whole crew
Great video. The instruction that was given about how to take the strain off the back while floating invoked the memory of a drill sergeant whose experience during his tenure, that he tried to pass on to those of us who not a clue did not have in being prepared for the unexpected, but later found out the experience and lesson learned provided a much needed respite from pain and misery. Your experiences and those actions by the ones you have taught the trade will be carried forward and applied in years to come. They too will be thankful for the lessons learned and the pain and misery they did not have to endure.
Looks awesome, good job you have a great bunch of guys
Excellent work!!
Saw your work with @Outdoors with the Morgans! great job there and a real fine job here also! Mike talks about all the different jobs you do down there in Pennsylvania, so came here and subscribed while I was checking out some of your content! We were born raised and still live in my great state of Alaska! We mainly have gravel roads here only the main roads can afford the HUGE upkeep of them!
Thanks for joining us
Well done and thanks for sharing this with us..
Steve..."30 years of being told to hurry up"....Tom..."you haven't done the cuts".... son's typical response to dad and dad's retort...made my day.
First it was too fast, and then he switched it to not fast enough!! I can never win but at least it’s always documented now hahahaha thanks for watching!
@@GunpowderandFreedom Indeed it is now documented....TSH Concrete will be in good safe hands with you (and team)....repeat the mantra...."slow and flat"....☺️👍
I'm sure your cleaning is from much experience, great crew ,great video Tom and Steve
Yup, I missed a few spots on a fence one time and I will never let that happen again. Thanks for watching!
nice job you changed your mind on the cuts on the patio.i like it on the side of the doors
All Steve
Thirty years of "Hurry Up." I know the feeling.
I can never win hahaha
Nice work guys 👍
That looks like a great exposed mix.
Looks really good. Your guys are worth their weight in gold. Specially your son, respectful and kind. You certainly raised a good kid.
Thanks
Thank you very much!
Looks fantastic
Great teamwork. Years of experience. 👍
Thanks
Like the new product looks like it is going to save you and the crew a lot of work. and by the way. Steve makes a good cameraman. Another.project perfectly done.
I actually have a degree for videography haha so it’s about time I put it use hahaha thanks for watching!
Wow! A powerwasher we never used more than hose pressure with a soft broom
Impeccable work 👏
First time watching,nice job
Thanks
Outside of stamping exposed aggregate is my favorite
really finishing the backyard floor was an excellent job!!!! How great it would be to work with you! they make a great team!! Here in Mexico those more rustic jobs are done and the finishes are not so perfect! and it is more expensive and difficult! I love your work brother! Greetings to you and your entire team! from Guadalajara Jalisco Mexico!
Thanks greetings to you
beautiful job ! well done Guys
Nice work guys 👦 👏 👍
Another great job
That was a pretty nice looking color
Nice job
When the client wants a pool but hires a concrete company instead. 😉
Great video! This is my second time watching this episode as "this aggregate" really intrigues me. Is this done for the look, or is it for a "non-slip" reason?
Beautiful workmanship amazing 👏
Thank you very much!
great Job steve
Thanks!
Now that was a real cool ride.
Great job.
Very very nice job your guy’s!!!!
awesome job
30° and you wear shorts? Steve can do it all; finish, power wash, video, etc. Love your work and videos.
I try my best to help where I can! Thanks for watching!
Steve Great job, Tom you did well, but after 30 years of tell him it paid off or its rubbing off on him, Steve I like the way you explained how you wash the cream off and why, I do like the Exposed Aggregate, and that there Blue Stuff works petty good too. Stay Safe, Have Fun, and see you on the next one.
Thank you very much!
Calcium is corrosive to metal. We pour With a non-Calcium Additive for winter time when using wire or rebar. I’m sure it’s good with fiberglass.
I ALWAYS LOVE THE ,,BROOM,, FINISH..SO NATURAL..☆☆☆☆☆
Auto shoot swing from driver is cool. Never had that pouring walls.
The mixer driver is working harder than anybody
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL JOB GUYS ‼️‼️👍. Vinny 🇺🇸
Nice job.
"Dawn the hill" reminds me of my cousin and uncle from Pittsburg.
As usual a great crew, and vedio. Really like curb, keeps the cars and water out of the flowers. How many times have you got concrete on your back side. 😆
Everyday
Excelente y bellísimo trabajo saludos 👊👊👊🙏🙏🙏
I wana know about that sprayer, do u have an extension pole?
Funny you should ask. Wait until you see upcoming video I think you’ll like it.
@Concretewiththehauses I will Def tap in, my shorts have been doing well and I thought about talking about this, I have seen a short extension b4 but it leaked everywhere and I have it, yours looked decent
I have too try it
Could you guys touch on the cost difference of exposed aggregate? Is it twice as much as the regular or...? Pardon my ignorance! Love the videos and the top notch work thank you for sharing
I charge 40 to 50% more for exposed aggregate than plain concrete
Craftsmanship at its finest.
I think 17 times washing the house and concrete work is a good number just kidding but your right it does make a mess great video
great job Guy's
Still see some blue on the walls, you really should have covered the walls. Concrete looks great though.
good work as always. just curious why put curing sealer on in this time of the year when its cold?
If I recall, was about a month before frost
Thats bad ass your pulling it by your self
I use Brown sugar on exposed aggregate here in Ireland and it works Good you just mix it with water and spray it on and wash it off
We used white sugar one time and it exposed it about an inch deep.we had a mess I’ve never tried brown sugar
You'll never go back to the stuff you cover with plastic. It looks like topcast 150 by far the best
Tom how do you get that relief cut right up to the house with your saw ?. Nice job as always 👏
I use a cordless grinder to finish
Great work! Have you had any mishaps where someone or something walks on your work before it cures?
Yes kids and dogs mostly
I noticed that the final cuts didn't coincide with your initial description, you said that they would be coming from the center of the doors and corner of the house, so it would be in quarters. Also, what do you use alongside the house for expansion and contraction? Looks great, love that exposed aggregate.
Steve had something else in mind it work to
I like the walkway look more then a crack straight down the middle.
I think as I haven't read but one comment... all know your knowledge and dedication for precise work, leaving a advertisement of what you are capable of doing. I do have some limited work in cement, after it hurt me bad, I kept with my diesel mechanicing. I know its not real in most peoples thinking but good cement workers make every bit as much as other professions. I am curious if you have done the "fake wall of rock look off of steep slopes to give it a look of smooth stone instead of weeds and water run offs.?
No we haven’t
Ferfect job is been a long time I don’t see a good job especially on this times 👍 can you used that retarter in summer to help drying evenly?
No there’s different products for that
Ok thank you for the note! keep up the nice job
What size of aggregates is used to give a better exposed surface after power washing?
I have never done concrete but is the rebar not supposed to be propped up about an inch or 2 so as to strengthen the concrete. It was sitting flat on the ground of the base stone. I mean I know the pick ut up a little bit as they go but then 4 hefty guys step on it pushing it back down as they start scraping it.
follow your dads foot steps and you will not go wrong fantastic work as always
Good cor
I used surface retarder on half a driveway a few weeks ago diy project. Blue too. It makes a hell of a mess but we got it off with garden hose / brush after 90 minutes from application. The afterspray hit the preexisting concrete and wouldn't come off so we were forced to use a pressure washer the next day. My first time pouring concrete on a slope, never ordering concrete that wet on a slope again.
90 minutes that’s pretty fast
After lecturing viewers about never getting under the chute, you show two workers clearly under the chute in this video.
Never ceases to amaze of where people are getting their money and building endlessly? Is there only 1 out of 5000 people able to freely spend and build like this or are pretty much all the people around me living under a rock?
Good job it's not a DIY job for sure been doing concrete wk 40 years & still love doing it I remember when we used to seed exposed & was the same day.
That’s how we did our first one 35 years ago
Where I'm at we use a pink surface retarder. Actually had a home owner freakout because she didn't want pink concrete.
Funny
That exposed aggregate looks awesome! Care to share some tips with an amateur? I’m looking to do some yard curbing with quickrete. Could I get a similar finish with a surface retarder on quickrete? At what point would I apply it? I have some retarder arriving in a few days that looks to be the same color as that.
I have never exposed QuickCree do a small sample area make sure it’s a gravel mix and not a lime stone mix you may get better results if you order one yard from your local supplier he may even be able to send you out somebody’s leftovers if that would be an option finish the Conccrete apply the retarder as soon as you’re done edging some products have to cover up make sure you use black plastic rather than clear plastic keep me posted how it goes thanks
@@Concretewiththehauses thanks for your reply!
They are going to think they have a pool on their porch!
Would one of those circular surface pressure washer attachments work faster? We used one on our deck this year, and it kept the mess down quite a bit.
We use it on sidewalks a patio you have to push the product too far
Would you do the same setup with the brake lines when poring a slab that will have vehicles, vehicle lift installed and tractors driven on it? Its for a 30x60 building.
Yes
can someone tell me if this exp. agg product has n advantage over sugar water?
nice job!!! could i get more info on the blue product please,thank you
We have one coming up in a few days
@@Concretewiththehauses thank you
Tom my name is Carmen Barone ( Carmen Barone and sons Inc ) my father started our concrete business 50 years ago we are a family business also 4 brothers 2 sons we do mostly commercial work around the Pittsburgh area I have been watching you clips for a while you guys do it the right way if you don’t mind me asking what kind of retarter did you use the blue stuff we do a ton of exposed I typically like to let concrete set up pretty tight and then spray to try not to get a deep etch, there seems to be a shortage on everything these days… keep up the great work

Do you ever get darks spots in your broomed concrete when you use bagged calcium? We had to switch to non chloride in our broomed concrete because of it.
I know what you mean if we get an old bag that has chunks in it that will give us a problem as long as it’s fresh calcium with a good mix it seems to work for us
Sadly back pain is definitely a down side to every manual occupation, I had both hips replacement plus acompressed spine from 42 years of many different physically demanding occupation, I was actually thinking of you all especially the backs and knees are another concern.
