Tom, What a good way to show the homeowner the proper way to finish concrete. It's a talent that you have and comes from years of experience. Thankyou

- Your videos demonstrate the skills and care needed in concrete work. Concrete finishing technique kind of similar to skimming plaster. Again the care and pride your team has in what most of us would call a ordinary sidewalk is very professional.

Excellent tip at the end for what time to be talking to your concrete provider, and the makeup of the concrete!

I love watching true professionals doing their given trade's. You and your company are true professionals. I've put in concrete for a sidewalk and for RV parking pads and I have to say I'm not a concrete guy but I have done some in 17 + years of campground maintenance. I'm not a professional but I am truly amazed at the amount of time and effort it All takes And am never surprised by the amount of criticism My bossed have yet they never have done the actual work. Thanks for taking us along with you and for teaching me how much work you All have to do. I have told my newest boss to check out your channel and too my surprise he has and now I get to set form's up for the fall instead of trying too get 4 pads a day I think we're going to get 14 12x35 pads poured and complete the rest of the pull thru camp sites. So thanks for helping me out.

Awesome this will help me a lot. When you take the cream for the joints, it leaves a mark on the broom finish. Do you just broom it again? Or do you float it again and broom once again? Ty from Denmark 🇩🇰

How about forming? Creating a base? Does it need to slope so rain doesn't sit on top? DIYers need a lot more info than this if there gonna do it themselves.

I’m curious as to why you don’t use any steel on outside concrete? I have been doing small sections of sidewalk and have been finishing it with a pass or two with a steel trowel and seems to be ok.

I know a lot of guys use steel trowels outside. I preferred to use a float and keep a thicker paste on top of the aggregate.

Gas lines in our neighborhood have been replace, and some concrete driveways had to be cut and repaired. Mine is asphalt but my neighbors had concrete repaired. It is more white in color than gray. Why does this happen?. It is sooo obvious, that Id be pissed if it were mine. What causes the different shades?
