Great job - I'm just wondering what your ratio of aggregate to sand to cement was ? I'm sure you guys didn't seed the pebbles in.

Hi! Love your videos. We had our drive way done about a year ago, the concreter left the acid on too long and used undiluted acid on our exposed aggregate. It came up brown instead of the grey tint and some of the white stones turned yellow! Do you have any ideas on how to rectify? I can't seem to find anything on line.

We have to be low key any time we are doing the salt or sugar some builders are a bit funny, pay concreters just to tell them how to do it 😂

3 hrs from start of pour to start of wash! Wow. Out here in Houston, TX it would take 6 hrs before we could even think about stepping on it. So we end up using products like TopCast and washing it the next day.

They do provide expansion joints. Look closely at the thin aluminum strips they install at approx. every 3m. They are there. Actually, a lot less mess than going back in and sawing the concrete afterward.
