    Great job! I especially like the multiple compactions. I am a homeowner dealing with a sinking roadway due to inadequate compaction so that really hit home with me. Its great to see someone that obviously cares about their work.

      Thank you for your comment and support. It's surprising how very little people know the difference between both compactors. Sometimes I see people just run 1 or the other. I'm glad you enjoyed the video of it running. God knows my arms remember everytime I run it.

      We take every step to make sure we not only meet but exceed the industry standard. We also recommend that customers never use deicing chemicals, apply penetrating sealers, and caulk joints. Usually all this adds up to a slab that should last a few decades.

    Nice work but one question,you set up the job, but you dont know how to work and finish the concrete?Seems odd.

    • @jmconcretecoloradosprings
      @jmconcretecoloradosprings  3 года назад +5

      That is a good question. And I have met people who run concrete pours who don't know how to finish. But the men in these videos respect me because they all agree I am the most proficient finisher there. And I am willing to pay someone to take my place so I can keep my distance and quality control everything. I can't finish everything by myself so atleast I can make sure everyone else is doing everything as perfect as possible. I used to finish a lot and still help friends and family pour jobs. But on my projects when it comes to the pours I run the buggy or supervise and coordinate. But if it starts to set up fast i can and will step in to make sure it comes out great.

      Look up a Stihl Ts500i with a diamond blade. And I just go an extra 3/8 of an inch near edges and at points that joints can cross and if it's a long enough joint (+20 feet) I will touch it a few times also. It just makes sure that it cracks where I want it to.
