It wasn't that bad actually. Way more hand work when we prep basements

I guess I don’t understand the need for a rebar grid in a sidewalk. That’s a lot of extra work cutting those and overkill for something that will just be walked on. If it was a driveway, I could understand the rebar grid. Those 2x4 stakes are overkill too. Try 1x3s - so much easier to pound in the ground, and hold up the forms just fine. You guys do solid work though! 👍🏼

@jacobkobelsky6770 Жыл бұрын

Ground shifts. Keeps it all intact. That is the purpose of rebar

@marierasmussen7799 11 ай бұрын

Awesome video. I for one vote for the rebar. Wondering why you didn't use a little more substrate? I am planning on 4". Would 5/8 minus be good for substrate?

Do you 45 your sidewalk so you can get the wheelbarrow around the corner.

45 edges look real nice. Im gonna start doing that . But wow using only 2x4's? We use 2x6 . Concrete in canada gotaa be mininum 6".. nice.jobs though.

Who told you such nonsense? 4” is min for sidewalks, even driveways.

@ThunderDivine 3 жыл бұрын

Love your work, also to dare showing it on YT, - but never connect new concrete with old concrete, llike u do at 9 min. The house has settled 10 years ago. The new sidewalk will probably sink 5/16, or 1cm in the next years, so they should be seperate. / Also if and when u drill into foundations the hole should never go down, but up so water wont accumulate in it. - Other than that awesome work. - Greetings from Norway.

I would see those hard angles in the turn every time I walked on it and it would drive me crazy. To anyone watching this, don't do that. Use some ¼in plywood. Soak it in water and bend it, back it up with some pins, and round that corner off. Craftsmanship is important.

@Take_And_Make Жыл бұрын

We offered customer rounded corners he requested straight angles only.

@JohnnyB-my2oz 29 күн бұрын

Rounded corners are out of date . The 45 corners are way better . It looks more modern .

@danwalters4865 3 жыл бұрын

Why don’t you guys use steel stakes so it doesn’t take two men to drive them?

@landonderzaph9965 3 жыл бұрын

We ended up buying some. Takes time to save up for the right tools for the job.

@dillonmoreland2357 2 жыл бұрын

U guys need to invest in some pins

@insanitology Жыл бұрын

That was my first thought "what a waste of wood". Its making them work so much harder too but I suppose if its a one time DIY it's better to just do it their way because when would they even use the pins again? Idunno I was always told you use the right tools and do it the right way. There's never a reason to reinvent the wheel.
