For sure! Yeah we do alot of exposed agg! Dp works great for it, but not other type of exposing like sand finish! Just for exposed aggregate! I appreciate the comment!

That's a neat trick. That came out very nice and the mix of exposed versus not-exposed offers nice contrast. Well done.

Those steps look realy good. I have no clue about what differrent floats there are. I know what the hand held and Bull Floats look like. Just not the names. My Granddad always did his own, and the Porch I am going to repair, was one he did 30 years ago. The front pourch is so smooth, when it rains, you have to be careful. I am nervous I'll mess it up, but I am taking your advice and ripping it out, and redoing it. I do know how to mix my own, just from helping my granddad. But, I am learning from your channel, how to actually work it. Thanks Bro! Keep up the great job, and please keep this helpfull Videos coming! I learn from watching, and your channel has really helped me.

1st off thanks 4 watching, 2ndly, as far as the pressure washer, it was poured in the fall time w 4000 psi concrete. anytime I do exposed agg, I start w just the hose and a broom, depending on what time of the year and time of the day its poured depends on if u need a pressure washer. I didn't need it on this 1, but I do have another exposed agg video that I used a pressure washer on, ita a nice set of steps. I will send u a link. appreciate the view and the like!!! those likes really help my channel

@bus-fun-addict Жыл бұрын

You need not use traditional expansion material along the building. In that case its only being used as a mechanical break between the slab and the building. You only need to keep the concrete from keying into the brick so the slab can move up and down. I use 5" rips of plasic laminate (such as formica). Works great and you dont even know its there. Your work looks great.
