Great hearing you back on a concrete video David. Can’t wait for part 2. I’m going to be rewatching a lot of your slab videos coming up soon since I’m about to do my first “big” slab for inside my horse shelter.
I work for a local city government. Lots of people don’t understand that It’s a good idea to do a little research before you plant a tree. Nobody wants 100 foot tall tree next to their house that I know of. Great video. Thanks.
Love watching your videos in the areas of my old OC stomping grounds. I wish it was more like when I grew up in the 60s and 70s. Orange, Avocado trees and open spaces everywhere. Outstanding content guys.
So you know…..your narration is part of the appeal to your vids…..your son does quality work but if it’s not your voice I don’t watch…..I wonder if I’m the only one or others feel like this……..also…..channels like yours go a long way in showing and celebrating the trades….it Iis definitely a lot of hard work but it takes thinking and experience to do it right…..you don’t get that from a 4 year degree……I bet it’s satisfying and rewarding doing the quality work you do and I hope it encourages young people to go into it….
I have a similar situation with a neighbor's tree they let grow right between their house and my driveway. The concrete is absolutely shot but there's no point in replacing it until the tree is gone. Thing is, whatever those roots are doing to my driveway they're doing to their foundation... Seems like that would be motivation enough to remove it.
In our hood here in HB they took out the trees on some streets. Some of the decomposing areas are a foot deep and the city hasn’t been back out to fill them. Amazed they haven’t been sued yet for twisted or broken ankle. I’ve filled the one in front of our home at least three times and it’s still sinking. Of course they replaced the trees they took out with trees that will ruin the sidewalk and curb in the next tens years and we’ll wait another ten past that to get them repaired again.
Ive tried to tell you about "The Beak" Concrete removal device for a bob cat 2 years ago. It would have paid for itself by now. If you havent seen it, look it up. Youll be glad you did.Big fan by the way Sir!!!!
How much different is the concrete world now then when you started in 80s/90s. I look back at when I started my apprenticeship in 05 for electrical work. All the new tools with batteries and the equipment has total changed. I haven’t used an extension cord in a few years
Love the video. Im also in Orange County (cypress), where are you guys recycling your concrete? I wanna start a backyard renovation soon. The dump fees are almost a deal breaker here.
Concrete pavers would look way better and adjust for anything else that decides to move the ground. Probably less expensive than concrete and rebar nowadays

Sounds like a nice project

Great point!
It is great that they do recycle the concrete.
Nice to hear Odell Papa describing the process, bravo!
TY
Those roots really did a number on the concrete. Good that you got ride of all of them.
For sure
The root of all evil
Can't wait for part 2, The Pour! Nice to see Dave on the job site. Have I mentioned that I think you and men do great work. 👍😄
Yes! Thank you!
Very tedious dealing with old driveway that would suck. Looking forward to part 2 💪
It's a tricky situation.
TY
I love the craftsmanship. Inspiring 👍
My favorite videos to watch when I'm eating lunch and most other times too 👍
Good stuff 👍
Awesome! Thank you!

it's a good feeling to see a happy customer and be able to go back years later and see the work.
I like Papa's narration too and i wish he could read some books as well so I could fall asleep like a baby :)

You would think so
a lot of roots there.. always good to plant trees away from your utilities and sewer line or the roots can damage them and it gets expensive.
True
Great prep!
Thank you!
Hey you brought the Chef out to California for a work vacation? 🤔 PS- great work team 👍
Yes! Thank you!
Nice to see you back at business

I like to call it job security
You should show how you established your hieght and pitch when doing the jobs and how thick do you pour your concrete
Good idea
TY
Full sending never lifting 😏 🤙 mobbin deep 🙌 have a good weekend brotha

I'll have to check it out

I love that it gets recycled.
Me too

A big difference.

Why don't you use the reinforcing mesh, is the reason the price or something else? What are you putting instead of the reinforcing mesh
Rebar is better for earthquake prone areas
Concrete pavers would look way better and adjust for anything else that decides to move the ground. Probably less expensive than concrete and rebar nowadays
Interesting job!❤❤❤❤
Thank you! Cheers!
Мені подобається така робота :)
