You’re in Arizona now?!?! Nice
I use 90 octane non ethanol gas in all my gas equipment. When I put it up for the winter I put some stabilizer in the fuel then shut the gas off and run it dry like you said. I’ve never had a problem. Even after sitting for 5 months.
I think the heat out here in southwest wrecks fuels quick.
I used TREDS boots for years ! Liked them because they were lite and if they get a rip or tear you can fix them with a rubber patch ! And the plastic bags do make them alot easier to get on and off !
I'll be using these for sure especially in the cold weather.
yay, you back David! lol-We’ve missed your voice on these videos. Love watching these amazing transformations. You guys are so great.
Glad to be back. I'm working on a couple more jobs.
TY
@@OdellCompleteConcrete I agree, not the same without you!
Good point
TY
Surprised to see you working in Tempe Az. 😲
Most of the roof units aren't air conditioners. With the older homes they're swamp coolers.
Thats interesting
That was true 35 years ago but A/C has become essential for any home in the valley.
Because of the rise in humidity, due to irrigation?
@OdellCompleteConcrete In the 1960s, AC units became way more affordable. AZ then mandated rental units have full access to central AC or renters can break the lease. They put them on the roofs because heat rises, so cycling air flow upward is way more efficient than flowing upwards than to the side of the house then down etc etc...
Great job again - even with a different crew.
Well done.
Great Job, it's always nice to watch a Pro Work
Thanks!
Nice to see you doing a job in Tempe!
More to come!
Outstanding job!
Thank you! Cheers!
TY
Turned out great. Those boots are nice.
Glad you like them!
Beautiful work and have great New Year!

TY
Thank you
Happy New Year
Awesome AZ!
Nice place
God bless you. Good job .
Same to you
The Carb issues are because of Ethanol in the Gas. You are doing the correct thing to turn the fuel off and let the engine run out of fuel. If you use the highest octane fuel it will also remedy carb issues with no need to run the engine out of fuel.
Good to know
TY
For me the best part of this video is your cap! Retired now but coulda used one of those caps when I was working.
Under budget? Dude! Ur awesome!! Love ur videos!
Happy New Year.
TY
All you really had to do with the air conditioner... Condenser.... Is have the key..🎉 which is like Allen key... turn your refrigerant line off... Got the copper... Disconnect the wiring.... And put it all back together....🎉.... Have a great New Year bro you did a great job....👍👏🎊...... JJ...😊
Sounds risky.
TY

Nice 👍
HAPPY NEW YEAR !
offline past two weeks, back online again 👍
Better late than never.
Did your internet go down?
HAPPY NEW YEAR 👍✌

It’s been a while. Glad I’m back!
Me too
Amazing job as normal!!! Love to see you down in the valley doing work now! Wow, down in Tempe now??? I may have a project coming up needing some custom paver and concrete and block work doing a full backyard landscape in Peoria. (303 & Lake Pleasent Pkwy area) out in the desert where we built in 2019 and get wild Donkeys, horses, javalina, mtn lions (mom and 2 pups came through my front yard the other day) and so many coyotes all over and up and down the streets at night just howling. some nice red tail hawks flying around and massive Owls and eagles...
But yeah, I was always amazing how you pumped all your jobs.,... Anytime I've poured when I was younger, to get a pump out is was in the 1k areas... it is RARE to see a pump here in AZ
When I was younger, the Maco was it. Unreliable and limited. The pumps today make concrete easy to place.
@@OdellCompleteConcrete Lol, growing up, learned concrete work by being the pump... aka a wheel burrow fully of crete going from the schute to the forms and you only make the misteak of dumping a load once.... lol
Ever try running Georgia buggies through the mud?
It looks super easy but it's super tough working concrete. Those power trowels are life savers!
It can be hard if your working for someone with not enough experience
Beautiful job with the new squad! Some Man taking those jobs on far away when there is much to organise.
Tricky operation
Full sending never lifting 😏 🤙 mobbin deep 🙌 ty for the video AZ for the win 🙌
OSS
TY
I would love for you to do the work on my property AZ! Good to have you back!
Deal!
TY
If you have an enclosed trailer consider adding a solar panel or 2 to keep batteries charged and charge while you’re doing the job so you always have fresh batteries.
I think three batteries and one super charger should do the trick
If you're running the Tesla truck you can charge from there
Didn't know you would come to Az, last year had the same thing kind of done and would gladly hired you guys.
Next time.
TY
@@OdellCompleteConcretewhat tool boxes are those on your truck
Good job
TY
There are a lot of our (Midwest O'Dell's) relatives in the Scottsdale/Tempe area. They do not have the O'Dell surname. That line of the Family has been there since WW2.
That's interesting
TY
I had concrete poured back on the 8th for a new shop, and even with a winter mix and accelerators, the guy left behind to do finishing didn't finish till 4pm, and they poured around 9am so almost 7hrs before he got the smooth finish he wanted. Daytime was a couple degrees above freezing. Finisher said when it it's summertime (similar temps and humidity to Arizona) he could be done in an hour or two at most. Shows that even with additives, curing is still a chemical process and heat governs how fast it happens.
There's ways around but it's costly and risky.
It's possible to make it happen faster but it cost more money and there is risk.
I feel your pain in regards to the gas clogging the carb, it's that ethanol that does it. I started using non ethanol for my gas stuff, long term it's really not practical though because it costs more.
Not readily available
Great tip on shutting gas valve and letting engine starve out. I learned that with motorcycles. That and adding stabil to the gas.
Great job on this one team. Did you guys have a place to sleep there or commute every day? Doug live there? 🤔
We stayed at a Hotel..
@@OdellCompleteConcrete ohh nice yeah that commute woulda killed you guys and gas money
Hotels the way to go
Whoa right in my backyard! I’m originally a So Cal native but I’ve been here for about 15 years and own a large Plumbing and electrical contracting company. Good to see you guys here!
Was this a one time deal?
NO, I'll be back as soon as someone calls me.
On Small Engines... I Now only use Non-Ethanol Gas... I have not had any problems with any of my equipment since... It's A Little hassle to go find and get it... But well worth it...
You can have that gas in for years and No Corrosion and it starts right up!
Good idea
TY
OCC is now taking AZ. GET SOME!
Sure, why not
Sure why not
I saw you had an add on criagslist for finishers in Tempe a couple of weeks ago
Bingo
@@OdellCompleteConcrete
I was going to hit you up but im about an hour away in Surprise Az
That fuel trick works to avoid carb rebuilds.
I concur
I'll be derned, I'm power troweling everything! Exception being the edges.
I also would've just done a "lay down" power trowel finish personally.
It looks really good though.
Right on
TY
TY
Those new trucks that mix on site are freaking awesome. Pouring in the cold/winter down in the valley, it takes forever for it to set.... however, pour in the summer, and you have to start your pour about 3am and by 9am you should be finishing your final troweling.... If you started at 9am, you have to retard the setup because as soon as the sun hit it, its like a time bomb, it cures up SO FAST in the desert heat and the ground under it radiating heat up through it too... lol.
Yup, the trucks ussually have those kiddie pools you get for like $5 at walmart and such and they clean out in those, and up to the finisher to dispose of the concrete cleanup out here. in new neighborhoods that are pouring new slabs, you see the kiddie pools in a lot they use for a "cleanup lot" where all vehicles and concrete vehicles go to, to do their cleanout and you see just stacks of kidde pools FULL of hard concrete, lol.
I told Armando he dump the concrete from the kiddie pool. Then give the pool to his kids.
He was very excited and said he would tell his kids when got home that Christmas came early. LoL
@@OdellCompleteConcrete LOL!🤣🤣😅
Its rough out tthere
That's not fair? Why didn't I know you were in Phx? Ive got a job for you as well! Your the best Dave, if you come back let us know.
You and me both.
I want to do my side yard and want the Dave to do it.
No worries, I'm not far away.
Whenever you're ready I'll be there
that stump was very stubborn, thought you might have got that crane to help pulling it out
Probably would have flipped the crane over
👍👍
Lol, next door is getting a new A/C unit during this. You see him remove the old AC and lift the new one up. But yeah, any home build before the mid 90s,. the A/C is on the roof. In the mid-90's, we moved to split systems where the half is in the attic and the condensor is on the ground outside. and thats how all new homes are still build today. For some reason, for all the years since Air Conditioning was invented, AZ put it on the roofs all tne way up to the mid 90's. where the unit gets beat the hell up by the sun and heat.
Makes no sense on the roof.
Why was there no gap (expansion joint) against the wall and the side of the house for expansion (and contraction)? The saw-cuts were only to control future cracks?
I wanted to seal against the house because the foundation was cracking apart.
I’m a huge fan been following for years I’m currently an underwater welder w/ exp in concrete actually something I want to continue later on as a contractor do you have any recommendations to start up?
Nice job... but don't you gotta get back and seal it? or did you leave that for the home owner? You are usually in CA... so it surprises me that you'll go as far as Tempe AZ. Family member? close friend? associate? Just curious.
I'll go wherever there is some action. I like checking out new areas.
My state finally! You'd be needing retarder I believe if it was summer time while doing this :)
Is it a good idea to put something between the house and the new concrete, or the block wall and the concrete?
Also, you didn't mold the lines in like is done here in AZ haha
Yes, all small engines just turn the fuel off to kill it, unless you are going to start it again in the next hour.
We also put steel in it, which is rare in AZ.
@@OdellCompleteConcrete Is it rare really? My house is post tensioned and the one before it too so never thought about that.
Use tru fuel for equipment you don't use very much. It's kind of expensive but it doesn't break down and gunk up the carb. Even if you shut the fuel off If your getting gas from the pump in ca its only good for 4-6 months in my experience.
Maybe less in AZ due to the heat.
Regarding running the carb out of fuel. I'm a mid-sized city FF/EMT and that is SOP on all of the straight gas powered equipment on our rigs: Turn off the fuel and let the motor burn it all off to shut down the motor. Saves countless hours of maintenance on a fleet of rigs and equipment. This does not apply to 2-stroke engines.
Good to know
TY
I would like to see you pour 5-6 inch slabs for driveways....anywhere Vehicles or Trailers or Campers are rolling across....4 inches are for sidewalks only....in my opinion.
This one went in thick, based on the yardage used per sq.ft. probably4.5 to 5.5"
Old Man Odell still working with the tools . The kid said you retired
Never retire, it's my gymnasium
I'm looking for a quote to do the same thing in Peoria AZ
No problem
What’s the requirements or standard for RV parking, as far as thickness and psi?
Depends on the weight of the RV?
I am surprised you left the cracked concrete at the end of the driveway. Thought you would have cut it out and replaced it.
The owner is doing an entire driveway and front yard remodel next
as the home owner, I would drive into my old cracked driveway and see the new one and go, "I should have torn this up and poured it new too..." But a budget is a budget
I think he will he doing the entire landscape and driveway pretty soon. The Wife mentioned it.
Day 2: 7AM in the morning 😂
Bingo
@@OdellCompleteConcrete as opposed to 7AM in the evening
So if you complete under budget did you split the difference with the customer? Would be a nice trick to get work of word of mouth.
That's some good negotiations
Is there a big difference in pricing of a job in Arizona VS California.
No, its about the same.
No gap needed between slab and house/wall? If concrete expands, it pushes to the walls!?
Not the foundation
In indiana they don't power trowel driveways
Yes because it ruins the air entrainment that prevents freeze damage
Ya
How you didn’t have any cat or dog walk on that is baffling 😂
True
David - did you move out of California? I can't blame you because it's way too expensive there.
Yes, I couldn't afford it anymore
More and more people are doing that. It's unreasonable there. Move 1 or 2 states over, and grow your business there. No thanks to paying $1,800+ a month on 1-bedroom apartment.
Have gas powered 1hp edger bought 2000 never touched anything never ran gas out. Starts every time.
getting lucky
If I were the customer, I would've wanted the AC removed to have new concrete underneath the AC area as well.
Then I would of be overbudget
@@OdellCompleteConcrete If I were that customer, I would've increased the budget to make it happen.
Love your videos brother!
I love Customers that increase the budget, it can make the magic happen.
A small engine repair man told me that gas trick, I do that with my powerwasher, lawn mower and weed whacker, starts everytime, been years.
Good practice
1
Winner, winner Chicken Dinner
Permit required for this?
No
I was going to buy a Milwaukee plate compactor but for $5,500 I’ll stick with gas.
They'll come down
Why did you move to Arizona?
The cost of living is too high in CA and My truck was getting broke into every month.
@@OdellCompleteConcrete i thought you live in HB , its super safe here, but some people they like to target them. I am also moving to a rural part , seems nice , lower cost of living, I will have to drive to get some jobs at the city.
good luck in Arizona
I was in Huntington and that's a hot spot for the surrounding areas to hit.
You never cover the stucco? Only takes a minute. You know a professional they keep it clean.
Lets go Brandon!
I asked him if ever got teased. It's pretty coomon.
Love you guys David 🤡🤡@@OdellCompleteConcrete
Use non-ethanol gas in all your small engine equiptment and you will not have to do carburetor rebuilds.
Thats what I keep hearing. tough to have readily available.
FY
OSS
Didnt want the whole driveway redone since its already cracked and they paid you to come that far
Next project, entire landscape and driveway
Odell going international taking over the world - the real question is what happened to the beard?
I may grow it back soon, I kind of miss it
I dont like all that bleed water.......too much water in the mix makes for more shrinkage and an increased risk of more cracking and a weaker overall slab.....in my opinion.
Once the bleed water is out and the concrete is still workable, there's no problem.
Sorry 4 days with that travel losing money.
Not really, it worked out for me.
