    It’s pretty cool to watch him separate the stuff with that machine. I’m sure that’s not easy. It looks like he does a good job at it. I’m guessing that job was easily in the six figures to do?

    I love demo videos and watching heavy equipment pick up giant things, making those things appear so tiny 😅 My house flooded in Ian, so I got to see the stuff from my house being picked up by the FEMA truck claws and loaded into their giant dumpster trucks 🎉 Keep up the great work, guys!

    Here in Las Vegas they re in the process of demolishing the Tropicana resort. First job is knocking down the 1950's era low rise hotel rooms, the casino and ancillary structures. The two towers, they are also in the process of clearing everything out of the inside using bobcat type machines to plow through each floor and then pushing the debris onto the ground. Seems that a good bit of furniture was just left in the rooms and on the low rise, even the patio furniture remains during the demolition. Hard to say where all that debris will go. Everything is being stripped to the bare bones until the two towers are imploded this fall. All this to clear the lot so that the Oakland A's can start construction of the stadium next spring. Demo work is quite interesting.

    Up here we call it recycling crush concrete and machine has magnets to retrieve rebar have a couple dumpster to put rebar in to take to salvage yard them pieces of concrete we could run through are machine and the footings up here they use groat for strength don't know about down there but use groat in bridge pillars pour in wet and it dryers do you know how long clean up will take depends on how everything goes i guess be safe guys thanks Dave 18:18

    Hey what's the chance of seeing your Transfer Stations or landfill operations. Concrete strength comes in two ways 1) silica content, amt. Per mix, spec mix and air entrained during pour. That's all college talking there.

    what would the cost to the customer be for a tear down for this project. Sounds like you underbid the job because you made mention that it was a bigger job then you had expected. With that in mind, what would the industry, (maybe not what you charged) average charge for this job?

    • @removeitprosdemolition
      @removeitprosdemolition  7 месяцев назад +1

      We did not know it was build this good...we will make money just not what we had hoped. The size of the rebar and the hardness of the footers, burned time we normally don't have to burn. Can't hit them out of the park every time sometimes you get a single......lol

    Is it not more profitable to take CLEAN rebar to the dump, surely mixed in with the concrete the tonnage price per $ is going to be less, I've done lots of " munching" as we call it here in the UK, ( pulverising the concrete) and it's mind numbing and S L O W , but perhaps you have time constraints, ie, get onto the next job where you can recoup losses on this 1 ? When's the next weigh in , I'm salivating 😅😅😅😅

    Thats better my man, still not as good as 0 subtitles, but its your channel so you can tell me to " go forth and multiply" if you wish 🤭 i must admit i researched the top 10 youtubers and not 1 of them used subtitles, i think your RUclips coach was trying to justify your fee by suggesting subtitles, but hey ho, everyone has to make a profit somewhere along the line, i really cant fault your channel, it's even in the best format of 4k, my advice, cancel that subscription, hes charging you for lessons you dont need, excellent channel, great bunch of employees, and the boss listens, what a rare delightful company, got any vacancies ?
