    Hi Adam, just a thought; at the next big concrete project, look at adding color to the concrete mix. Works great and cuts out a lot of work after the pour. Once the concrete cures, just need to seal it and you're done!

    @MrThorp1 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    that is my only issue with most concrete stains, they sort of all just look orange or rusty. Ive been a landscaper for 20+ years now. A pet peeve is when an iron rich fertilizer isnt blown off concrete, it leaves little rust freckles, essentially this same color. My preference would have been to try and more match the buff color of your bedstones. That said, you gotta blame the product, not the user. You did a great job.

    Two railings , one for each side ?
    I might recommend two ( one for each side ) one three inches taller for you
    and a shorter one for the older or shorter people
    And powder coating, don't forget the powder coating.
    ( if only we knew someone with a welder😊 )

    Looks great! I did a set of steps about 3/4 the size, 20 years ago. Used stackable wall rock for the risers, blue stone treads and lots of concrete. Took forever but still holding up. The downside is the cost, bluestone costs a small fortune now.
    Your design is probably better, more economical, and should hold up just as long. Great project! We have 20 years of family photos on our steps, I am sure you will too!

    @greenwoodsbushhogging6704 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I wonder if it'll dye the rocks? Might be interesting if you sprayed the added concrete in the rocks to help blend it into the rocks/landscape? I know videos don't show it the best, so it may look amazing without it. I just figured it might give it a flowing into stairs type look.

  • @nickmaclachlan5178
    @nickmaclachlan5178 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Next time (if there is one) just add a colourant to the concrete mix (obviously in same proportions if batch mixing) and you'll miss out on all this lost time, faff and added expense. It will also be the same colour inside when the concrete weathers or is damaged in the future......

    Looks nice,
    however you could have saved steps, time and cost by initially dying the concrete when it was in the concrete mixer.
    So even if the concrete wears or chips the concrete would be the same color.
    Yes less content for your TH-cam channel but then all you would had to do is seal it.
    Lastly, shouldn’t you have a handrail since you have more than 2 steps?
