Tom, As a former log buyer we NEVER wanted to take trees from homeowners yard sites, from tree services and when cutting standing timber you usually were very leary of trees on the outside property lines due to "NO hunting, trespassing, private property signs because of nails. You need or should invest in a good metal detectors. Could save someone from being hurt when a blade blows up from hitting something big in a logs. We kept a lot of garbage that was hit over the years. From nails, to railroad spikes, to a cannon ball. That's not a typo. Worst thing I ever got into were later identified as stainless steel climbing spikes in some Pecan. Absolutely DESTROYED a $2000 (back in 1980ish) 56" circular saw blade. Took teeth, shanks and shoulders right off the blade.

I've been a landscape/hardscape contractor for over 20yrs, viewing the end results of your steps and patio makes me wanna do concrete in my house. Simply quality work 👏

When watching your videos it seems you and your crew cease to amaze with the quaility and perfection you guys put into every job. I can't remember seeing one and wonder if you will ever do a video with a chat around with all of your crew. Tom you are a great business man that has shown both crew and customers the way you expect your jobs to turn out. Hats off to you and your crew for yet another great job.

I still get blown away by the projects you do! That patio wall is just beautiful 😍

Porches and patio looks nice, the difference between your crew and other channels is your guys take pride in their work and you put your projects first, then youtube .

What separates you from most other concrete contractors is your attention to detail…The control joint placement is second to none

The patio steps didn't turn out overwhelming after all. My gosh isn't it beautiful! The border and broken stone edges are awesome. The finished landscaping you did was awesome too. All they had to do was throw some seed on it! The overlooking view of that patio had TSH all over it. Tommy catching the form there is routine for any one of your crew members, and hearing you brag on them was sweet music to my ears. As I've said before, I'd feel so honored to work for TSH. It was great to get back to the sawmill, but dang at the problems!! I hope you get it back to normal. Nice video, Tom, thanks.👍❤️🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸

Thanks for showing the retaining part of the patio at the end , I was curious about how y'all finished that out 👍💯

Luv the soft corners on the steps

Looks great as always Tom …. 7.5 yards which is about 3/4 of a yard more than what you need

I have seen a lot of concrete finished and I will say you do excellent work

The patio and steps turned out beautiful!

I wanted to say thank you for the awesome content and how I also walk around my neighborhood and wonder why some of the driveways do not have more crack protection....lol

Tom,man do you and your crew do good work! Totally enjoy watching your channel! Keep up the great work!!

When you retire, you’ll make an excellent consultant for a company that makes the decorative templates or for a national concrete company. And you have rights to the videos that show your work. You have too much knowledge in your field to retire, retire. Love the creativity of your work.

Always the professional, no matter the job. I really appreciate, and admire that. Great job!!!

8.5 yds. Love your work n videos

Bro your channel is doing really well. If i could have it the other way i would. But hey i had to get in where i could. And i still try to post some long form stuff Love the form liners and the back fill at the end. We do that and i think it really helps. Smart pojri g 2 dif pours 2

Great job looks great. That house looks like a modular or double wide. The siding is a little wavy. White corners. I live in one and love it. Jim is my hero !

Great result Tom.. Please, how about you do a video on work ethic.. you guys clearly have a great approach to work and working.. I'm hearing often that some companies are really struggling to find young people to start at the bottom and work their way up, or to even start at all.. we need to teach our younger generation to work.

6 cubits yard!! Thank you for your videos.

My guess on concrete would be 6.6yds. It amazes me that there isn't a job that you & your crew isn't to hard. Superb

Thats the most I ever heard Jim talk.

I love the work your team does. Beautiful.

Another great job looks good

Awsome job. great patio!😍

Great looking pour 🎉You guys make it look easy 😊 Thanks for all the videos ❤

Great job!! I guess 9 1/2 yards.

Tom, love the videos about the cutting in the mill and running into metal. Why don’t you invest in a metal detector? I’ll help you find where they’re at. Keep up the good work, brother.

8.0 yards with a little thick grade beam and a little extra

Tom it looks like you need to have Wood Mizer come in to do a service call. Also you need to invest in a hand held metal detector. Steps and patio look great.

15 yards awesome video tom

Very nice job

...............G'day Tom, I don't comment often, but I must say I am impressed with this one, especially the end wall. It turned out a great effect. Cheers and God bless. Malcolm.

9 yards of concrete. Thanks for videos .

Great looking patio, keep up the good work, ahh 8.65 tons sounds bout right!!!😊

👋Awesome work guys!!!!….I say about 9 yards

8 yards should do it! Great VIDEO!

Figs about 6.5 so 7 yards. we always used 4" sq feet divide by 80 [81] 5" 65 if your off a little 7.5

I'd say 7.12 yards, around here in CT they don't show up for less than 8 though.(or charge for min. 8) That would be my second guess.

Nice work.

Metal is very common depending where your logs come from. I have gotten a bunch of logs from neighbors yards and often there will be a nail or screw where they had a birdhouse, clothes line, etc or from the edge of a field. On the drive unit, is the drive operating, but not moving the carriage? If that's the case, you likely need to tighten the rope line. It takes a fair amount of tension to work correctly.

Turned out looking great. If I had to critique anything you guys do it would be saw cutting your joints vs putting them in when wet. Putting them wet looks so much better but I know it can be alot harder to do.

Turned out super, not too many steps.

8 yards sounds good, love watching love from Wales

GOOOOOOOD MAAAAAAAAWNIN EVERYONE!!…another nice video Tom. Yinz do such great work. You’ll have to bust Mike Morgan’s chops on selling you an inferior sawmill 😂 J/K Hoping you can get all the issues fixed easily. Until next time Have a day

I would order 8 yards to cover low spots in the grade but 7.5 would probably get it done.

Great work Tom, Questions how many crew members do you have? I do be amazed at the amount of concrete you guys put down each day.

I'd rather have too many steps than a total redo❤❤❤❤❤

7-3/4 yards. 8 to be safe. 😊

To, I would order 7 &1/4 yards !!

All was nice work. I believe you did 14 yards.

7.13 on paper. My guess is 7 1/4 if you take the sq/ft of stair footprint into consideration; not as much material waste needs adding.

A carpenters pencil would make a nice cut at the ends on the corner for drainage too instead of cutting

Steps already in. I would order 7.5 yards.

Just a thought on the use rubber pads on the saw mill. What if and I don’t know the diameter of the grippers where you place the pads you would use heavy duty slip on chair pads placed over them. Not sure if it would work just a idea

I would say the second truck was between 8-½& 8¾ yards

5 Yards!

7.7 needed, ordered 8 yards

11 yards is my guess. Great work guys.

Nice patio, but I have to wonder if that steep slope between the fence and high patio wall will be grass and how hard to mow. Must be something different happening there.

9 yards of the finest concrete.

I enjoy watching ,Both you and Mike.Both very independent, but work well with crews.seem to attack good people.

7.13 yds. Ordered 8. At least according to the concrete calc I used

7 yards ordered. Fantastic job. I can't believe i had never see any of the stone liners or plank anywhere in my area until after i watched your channel for a long time.

You should invest in a metal detector, do a quick scan before you load it on the mill. I was wondering if your customers complain after it snows or ice rains that the steps are very hard to clean? They look great, but seems imposable to get them cleaned off.

Correction 7.1296 yards

On the milling of lumber, Mark Galacic purchased a "GOOD" metal detector and he runs every log all around before he cuts it. Now i do not know how much it cost, but he said it was pricey. You may could buy a less expensive metal detector, it would not take too many ruined blades to pay for. Just a thought. :)

13 yards of concrete mix Stay safe out there.

7and 1/2 yards

7.2 cubic yards

9,5 yards 3x on the shirt thanks

( 7.19 ) 7.5 yards

21.388888888888 yards for the patio.

7-1/2 yds I would order-8 to be sure.

8 yards , order 8 1/2😊

1st truck 5 yards

Tell Mike Morgan that he sold you a lemon. Lol

7.7 order 8

8.5 cubic yards

Those are 3 pretty important things to go wrong on the saw

8-1/2 yards

Good morning from Pleasant Hills, PA. I would order 9 yards of concrete. 🇺🇸

It comes out to be 7.12 yards for the lower pad plus 1 yard for the thicker part of the lower pad. And for the steps 2.54 yards. 10.66 total. So I guess you ordered 11 yards

Whoever said 8 should be the winner

7.5 with no waste

What did you charge for that job?I understand if you do not wanna share the price for the job . Great job!

4 metres of concrete. 😊😊.

Tom what are they doing on the side door from the video it looks like a very big step to the landing??

7.5 cubic yards

Call the company and ask them questions

7-1/2 yards

11.5 yards!

7 YARDS

8.55 yards

6.5 yards to 7

Hi Tom, sounds like you need to purchase a cheap metal detector. I mill for hire and trees around houses seem the worst for metal. I tell my customers up front that if I damage or destroy blades it’s going to be tacked onto their bill.

8.5 yards

71/2 yards

7 1/2 yards
