Thanks Bill, God bless, Mike
Hello, Mike and happy new year to you and the family. This 24 minute video is the quintessential master class on masonry. Thank you for sharing all your years of craftsmanship. Looking forward to many more of your videos in 2023. Be well.
Thanks Philip, Happy New Year, Mike
Professor Haddock I've watch all your videos at least 3 times a piece. You are extremely knowledgeable with anything cement and everything Portland. I'm proud of y'all!
Thanks for the kind words, thanks Mike
I remember the China and Scandy visit videos when they came out and the finding of how they all did their sidewalks and how astonishing it was. Mike is a great honest person. Word to the wise, granite blocks for where water touches is what the lesson was if I remember right. Love it!
Thanks Tofan, I appreciate the kind words, Mike
Sir you are a gift to the world!
Thanks Emil, I appreciate the kind words, Mike
Your videos are Awesome Mike , Thank you for all of the tips and knowledge Man.
Thanks Robert, Mike
In St Louis Mo we use type N for pointing. Most of our bricks are 100+ years old and have a hard face but softer core. It breaks my heart when I see someone who pointed with portland. It pops the brick face off during winter and leaves the soft core. On the old buildings they use O when pointing as the brick was fired some 200 years ago. We can also get lime since many of the hoses have lime plaster on the inside of the brick wall and the inner walls & celling on the oak lath. If you ever want to see some amazing beautiful brick work come to St Louis we have some of the best in the country.
Hi Scott, I got a video out called " Lime , mortar or portland " what should I use?, I think I say it best there, thanks Mike
Hi, my dad watches and loves all of your videos and uses them to help him, we all appreciate you being here and sharing your ways 😄
Thanks, I appreciate it, Mike
Mike thank you! It no doubt takes considerable effort to make these very fact filled videos for us. This guy right here for one, is highly appreciative! Be Blessed brother.
Thanks Jeff God bless, Mike
Thanks Mike, over the years I've been watching your vids. The knowledge I gained has helped me through the past several years. I do my own home improvement and repair. I've repaired a old foundation on a very old house 🏚, repaired a walkway up my yard and now going to try and resurface my back yard with Portland. Thanks You for all the information!
Thanks Paul, I appreciate hearing that, Mike
hey mike! i'm 41 and lifelong contractor of all sorts. i have gotten into stone work on my personal property, and needed to figure out how to mortar this stuff. being that i am in Lebanon, right down the road from you apparently, i found my critical local advice.
i am working with mountain stone from my family's land on the first ridge mountain before blue mountain, little mountain. in addition to the endless supply of that stuff, i also purchased some beautiful white limestone from a barn building demolition in lancaster county. more than half of those blocks were facing pieces, really nice stuff. and i have also been picking stone from the quitipalihila creek- which i think was an old canal- back behind carmeuse lime in anville. its crazy, im picking blue limestone blocks right from the creek.. haha.
anyway, you got me going man, and i appreciate it. i would love to come meet you for a coffee sometime! cheers!
Hi Zach. Thanks for the offer, I moved to Florida, but I am sure you will do fine, thanks Mike
I really appreciate your videos. Sharing your knowledge of a lifetime (well, second gen as well!) of commercial masonry work is so valuable to the DIY homeowner who needs to use cement, mortar, etc. for projects and maintenance work! Knowing what the best approach to take and what mix/product to use is more than half the battle! Plus I love to hear the eastern PA accent!
Thanks spkay,, Mike
Thanks for the scripture Mike, we need more food for thought in this crazy world.
Thanks Kathleen, I appreciate hearing that, I consider it a seed for those who don't know the Bible, Mike
In my America we take three weeks vacation after digging the hole. Happy new year!
Thanks Paul, lol, Happy new year, Mike
That was Excellent! Watching you work a trowel and mag. float on foundation repair made me smile the whole video. I said, now that's a Tradesman! Thanks Mike.
Thanks snurb,, Mike
Happy New Year Mr. Haduck! This in-depth video on Portland Cement keeps it simple yet says so much. Thanks for taking the time to teach us. Cheers Charles
Thanks Charles, Happy New Year, Mike
Awesome information you got me interested in mason work, I resurfaced my steps and Portland painted my sidewalk. The neighbors thought it was new concrete. Thanks for everything I do these projects with my two teenage sons, we are learning together.👍
Thanks Sisco, Mike
Thank you Mike. You've given me the courage to do some stonework. ♥ wish me luck!
Thanks ziemian,, I am sure you will do fine, Mike
Mike, until I found your channel, I would have never attempted any type of masonry. I always felt like it was just too far beyond my grasp of capabilities. Thank you for breaking things down and helping us understand what's going on beneath the surface, no pun intended.
Thanks 814, I appreciate it, Mike
An absolute wealth of knowledge
Thanks,, Mike
I’ve been following your channel for several years, I just painted my concrete sidewalks with Portland and then I had to fix a cracked concrete pad with some Portland, cost me $17. You’ve taught me everything!
Thanks reaper, Mike
Thanks to you Mike I have had no problems with my older home projects from walls, to stair repairs, to foundation work.
Many many thanks from a rookie in Canada ~
Thanks C, I appreciate hearing that, Mike
..who wants to come back from vacation and dig a hole. No matter what material I'm working with, I've always got a bucket of Portland on the truck. Magic stuff. Happy New Year Mike! Auguri!
Thanks R, Happy New Year, Mike
Best concentrated knowledge of cement on youtube! Thank you.
Thanks, Mike
We open holes and take vacation in Europe/Scandinavia too. :) Wishing you a great new year!
Thanks Lars, I heard that, lol, Happy new year, thanks, Mike
Thanks for clearing up some confusion.
The difference between paving slabs and concrete was always a gray area.
Thanks Rosey, Mike
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, Mike may the lord continue to bless and keep you in good health.🙏
Thanks Anthony, Mike
This video was great thanks. I'm filling a lathe bed casting to increase rigidity, so I was hoping for a overview of the different mixes maybe even some background glad I landed on this video very entertaining.
Thanks, Mike
Hi Mike I watch your videos over and over never get tired of them , you do a great job and it's easy to tell you love your work.
Thanks Rocco, Happy New year, Mike
Good video and informative Mike. Here in the Carolinas we always use Portland cement for the stone and mix half mortar and half Portland for the grouting if using grout bags.
Thanks bear, Mike
When I worked for a mason back in the 80s, it seemed as if we might as well have been working 40 or 50 years earlier. Ralph never seemed to take any jobs where his Case 380C backhoe in to dig, so everything was dug by hand by two or three laborers. Mortar was mixed by hand in a big mixing box with the ratio of portland cement to lime to sand to water varying depending on whether we were laying brick, block, or stone. Ralph was given a couple of pallets of premix once by a friend of his who had bought an old lumberyard and was converting it to an outlet store for paper goods. Ralph and his brother Nick didn’t trust the premix so we would add a shovel of portland for each bag.
Hi J, it sounds exactly like the way I was brought up, thanks Mike
I totally agree about adding extra portland to the bagged premix.I have also added crush 3/4 stone as it seems they go light on the stone in those premixes.I will never use round stone only the crushed.
Hello Mike, thank you for these videos! I have driveway issues, porch issues and water seeping through brick foundation when it rains. Sure feels like it's all falling apart. Researching and trying to find out what to do and how to do it was disheartening at times and overwhelming. Thank God I came across your videos because now I know mostly what I need to do. You have given me the confidence and understanding what I need to do. I started resurfacing my porch and steps last weekend - one of the places water gets under my house. I've bought the cement I need to start on the driveway and I'm going to keep watching your videos and get this place fixed up! Big Heart felt thank you for helping the overwhelming feeling not be so overwhelming!
Thanks Gregory, I am sure you will do fine, thanks Mike
This was probably the best video I have seen in a very long time. Thanks for all the great information. You explained things in such a great way and easy to understand!
Thanks Michelle, Mike
Happy Father’s Day Mike.
I wish I would have found your videos first!
Repointing a flagstone porch 50 yr old and attached flagstone/ brick stairs . Getting rid of my unopened bag of contractor’s mortar mix in NY and returning for Portland cement and mason sand only .
I really find your topics fascinating. I always like to know the “why’s”
Hope your having a restful day with family.
Thanks danih,,Mike
We know how to make it easy in Scandinavia. And long lasting. At least it used to be like that.
You got it spot on Mike.
//Richard
Thanks , Richard, Mike
Best explanation yet Mike!
Thank you, and God bless you my brother in Christ!
Thanks Rick, God bless, Mike
Unbelievable video,what a great teacher. Always learning listening to your videos Mike.
Thanks Ralph, Mike
Absolutely a superb video … incredibly informative… thanks again for all the vids
Thanks Thor, Mike
UK here, one problem that can happen with block pavements (sidewalks) is that they are poorly footed and break when people drive or park on them, which happens often in dense old cities. A few cities I've seen now use tarmac (asphalt) on the pavement when it needs renovating. Doesn't look as nice but I guess it lasts longer.
Thanks Jack, Mike
Hi Mike, I'm in your neck of the woods just north of Scranton. Thanks to your instruction, I just tackled my first basement window glass block job. It came out great! Happy New Year!
Thanks Adam, Happy new year, Mike
Thank you bro your very informative with concrete appreciated
Thanks flav,, Mike
The state of Oregon annually begs Mike to relocate there.
Thanks For the offer but I actually started living in Florida, lol, Mike
@@MikeHaduck Oregon will miss you Mike.
Thanks for the knowledge Mike, going to use your system to fix my stone foundation in Chicago. Got the mix ready like you showed!
Thanks, I am sure you will do fine, thanks Mike
If you care, this was so helpful. I have a project I’m doing some inventing . Using concrete instead of cast iron building machine tools. ( metal lathe, mill)
Thanks B, Mike
Mike, long time viewer but first time commenting.
I think i'm not alone when i say we'd love you see you build something entirely old school.
from getting the stone from the woods or an abandoned quarry, shaping and facing it, laying it out, everything.
a video series of how some workers in the old school would put up a stone building from start to finish. not some huge building but maybe just a corner section of a wall and then some info on how they did the floors and whatnot.
we're so lucky in NEPA to have tons of old, load-bearing brick and load-bearing stone buildings. i'd love to see how one of those was actually done from start to finish even on a small scale.
Hi Red, maybe someday, I appreciate it, Mike
I love it when you make these vids and explain the mystery around cement ... a HUGE learning experience. Happy New Year Mike! Thanks again for allll the vids during 2022.
Thanks Thor, Happy new year, Mike
good round up and nice wall
Thanks Savio, Mike
Happy New Year Mike! May it be healthy, happy and prosperous! Looking forward to many new videos this year.

Indianapolis and am getting better with Portland as a beginner yes...
In fact here in Indianapolis I can get a broken bag at Lowe's for $1.00 per damaged bag
Thanks Jerry, that's a good thing, Happy New Year, Mike
Have a Happy, healthy and blessed New Year!! Interesting video, I never really realized there were so many types or combinations. Take care.
Thanks Sue, Happy New year, Mike
hello Mike .new subscriber from the great state of TEXAS here i've been watching a couple of your of your videos a day for the past week since i found you channel last week i'm learning a lot here.thank you for sharing your wisdom
Thanks Jack, Mike
thanks mike.. my stone work i did following your videos is holding up great. i hope you have a great new year
Thanks Adam, I am glad to hear that, thanks Mike
Thanks for putting this together Mike. Cheers to a Happy New Year.
Thanks Guill, Happy new year, Mike
Thank You for sharing your knowledge . I cant begin to explain how helpful you have been!
Thanks g, Mike
I've also watched Mike's Chevy truck ...info.. currently I have a 1995 Chevy truck and am rebuilding about 100% myself am a Retired Machinists and a family owned machine shop since 1975...am a online transmission student at 60 years of age......and going to carb and HEI DISTRIBUTOR AND ROLLER CAM AND VORTEC HEADS OF 1996 TO A 1995....AM AT MY SALVAGE YARD DAILY AT SUMMERTIME....I LOVE TECHNOLOGY....AND HAVE STUDIED for years....I guess Mike was happy with a two barrel carb....I love those older trucks ya bet
Indianapolis Indiana
Ya can .........put those vortec cam roller camshaft in those older Chevy trucks...and roller lifters...too.
I get my roller camshaft at my salvage yard because they roll and wear isn't that much at all so.
Run... Diesel 10w 40..oil in those older trucks.
Add STP OIL TREATMENT....a day before a oil change...
Because oil companies have removed zinc...from motor oil rummer I've heard of.....and Stp and Lucas has zinc in the treatment....but don't leave it in a motor....add before a oil change....but yes vortec heads and vortec roller camshaft will make a older Chevy truck run great.
Instructions are on utube..... difficulty isn't all that much.
Good to have a older trucks running great as gasoline won't be forever no
That's my Portland ...for...now
Vortec camshaft and engines heads begin in 1996..
And they can go on early 1980s 350s
I would remove anything above 1998 far as Vortec to older Chevy 350s
Indianapolis Indiana...God bless USA
And a HEI DISTRIBUTOR....also.... however most 1980s have the HEI DISTRIBUTOR.....
Happy New Year, Mike! I always enjoy the historical perspective and how things go different in different places. Interesting, as always. Thanks!
Thanks Bob, happy new year, Mike
Mike, I like your sauce of humor,; then they go on vacation for 2 weeks,, hahaha. Thanks for the concrete education. Over here in AZ we don't have that harsh weather problem like you guys do.
Thanks Mike, Happy new year mike
Great new yr to you teacher haddock,words of wisdom.
Thanks Texs,, Happy new year, Mike
Great video Mike! Sometime can you talk about previous concrete. I'm thinking about a flagstone patio...and the base will be previous concrete so any water that gets in the joints...it will drain to sub base stone. Thanks
Hi ,I have a whole series on "stone patio installation " that should help, thanks, Mike
Great advise❤
Thanks Tom, Mike
Mike can you tell us why we do not build bridges and walls out of stone anymore? Here in Pittsburgh and western Pennsylvania there are many examples of these types of structures made with sandstone that are in great shape after 100 years or more. Modern concrete seem to deteriorate after 50. I believe the Old School way was better!
Its called dirty capitalism and guaranteeing yourself a job.
Hi Charles, most stone quarries disappeared with the development of concrete, it is mostly over with but I am trying to keep it alive, thanks Mike
Mike you make everything so much easier to understand...love your videos! I have a specific question about what proportion of sand to Portland that you would suggest for the floor of a fireplace?
Hi user, most would use firebrick, some use fireclay ,some use portland and sand, I have used 2 sand to one Portland for the joints but fire will eventually eat everything up, it depends on what you are building it for, where, what and why, thanks Mike
Happy new year Mike.. peace n love from Cumbria UK 🇬🇧 ❤️
Thanks Happy new year, Mike
Mike, first of all, I wish you a very Happy New Year! Yes, it is confusing but you make it interesting and a lot of times very amusing! I would listen to no one else talk about cement/concrete.
Thanks Juliet, Happy new year, Mike
Very informational video. I'd love for Mike to give his opinion on or do a video on Roman concrete.
Hi John, I been to Italy, I seen more stone than any concrete, only thing I can say it wouldn't hold up In Pennsylvania weather, thanks Mike
@@MikeHaduck Thank you Mr. Mike for the reply. Our weather in NY beats up concrete too.
Nice and clear explanations
Thanks Juli, Mike
Happy New Year Mike!!
Happy New year, Mike
Happy New Year, tanks for sharing...Maybe 2023 will be the year for "l' amour"
Happy new year, Mike
Around here, 4500psi concrete is supposed to be frost proof, and 4800psi is both frost and salt proof. Probably need some real curing time to get that strength I fear.
Hi elb, I can't say I seen any concrete that was frost proof, weather will get to it eventually, but thanks, Mike
Wow what an informative video Mike
I always learn so much listening to your videos
Happy Newyear from spens in Essex Uk 🇬🇧
Thanks, Happy new year, Mike
You need a "Jus like dat!" t-shirt!
Thanks curious, Mike

Thanks, Mike
Thank You Mike!
🍾🥂🎇🎆Happy New Year🎆🎇🥂🍾
Thanks Happy new year, Mike
Happy New Year Mike! I hope you had a good Christmas. As always your video commentary was very helpful. I don't do a lot of concrete but I when I do use the 1, 2, 3 too. Mixed up it myself (mostly working on my own property).
Thanks Luke, sometimes I beef it up to 1 1/2 Portland to 2 sand and 2 stone, especially my area, thanks Mike
great video mike..very informative !! Love your videos
Thanks Dave, I appreciate it, Mike
HNY23 Mike thank you for an interesting video. Merry Christmas...
Thanks John, Merry Christmas, Mike
Great Video Mike, as always.
Thanks Sofi, Mike
very nice video
Thanks, Mike
Great info! Thanks!
Thanks Nunya, Mike
Can you make a video on crystalline admixtures to make concrete more waterproof?
Hi Pang, I never heard of water proof concrete, Thanks Mike
Tried to look up how the Roman's made Concrete couldn't really find the long lost recipe, I believe they were using Ocean water instead of regular water?
Scranton PA " Loved that show" The Office ". Took place there maybe not all the filming but.
Thanks Steve, Mike
And thanks for the video
Thanks, Mike
GREST UPDATE MIKE 👍🇲🇽
Thanks Jose, Mike
Great stuff Mike.
Thanks Denis, Mike
Even more complicated with NHL (naturally hydrated lime) which can make a mortar with sand, and 'hydrated lime' which can't. I've been caught out once with that.
Hi Jack, it's hard to even find lime in my area anymore, thanks Mike
Mike Haduck is my masonry teacher, via TH-cam. :)
Thanks Mike, I appreciate the kind words, Mike

Thanks Suzanne, Mike
Mike I watched one of your videos on painting sidewalk with portland cement, sand & glue & you painted it with a brush. Can you please give me link or title of that video as want to show it to my guy who’s going to do my sidewalk? All the ones I’m finding now show you using quickrete & want the one with portland mixture hand brushed. Thank you cuz really need this done!
Hi Brenda, it was resurface concrete driveway, but remember it a quick patch and fix before replacing, or just a covering, sometimes it has to be redone every spring, depending on the weather, thanks Mike
