Hey sir, have you ever ran into a problem where rain made the soil to soft for you to pour a footing? I live in the OC and with all this rain the inspector put a hold on our block wall until the soil is dry. In the meantime I’m without a fence. Just wondering how long it takes before we can move forward and if there’s anything to speed up the drying process. Enjoy the channel by the way, you do a lot of good work. Going to hit you up soon for some quotes.
What is the real reason you wet set the first course? Is it purely a time and efficiency purpose or do you believe it gives you more lateral strength? Thanks for the videos. Very informative.
@@OdellCompleteConcrete This was the price you charged 4 yrs ago pre-pandemic right? How much would you charge now for something like this (approximately 70ft)?
Hey Odell when I make the control joint in the block wall, do I just start the wall going opposite ways and build up separately. Just butt the block together, no need expansion paper?
Most of the time yes. I seen a post on reddit earlier that said because of the state of the wall one home owner could have it replaced and if the other home owner doesnt want to pay they can be sued in small claims court for half the wall price. I assume the wall has to be in pretty bad shape for that happen and why wouldnt you just want to pay to have it done if it increases property value and looks better?
You do super awesome work David. My name's Marcos I do small jobs myself for a living single man band you know. I'm doing a small block wall here in Riverside next week. I was wondering if you could refer me a good block guy I could possibly hire to help me for a few days? Ceaser maybe or anyone you could recommend me would help please
I'm sorry but I just have to poke a little fun here. Has anyone noticed that the narrator for all these videos sounds ALOT like The turtle guy from the cartoon Rocko's Modern Life? " ooo aaaaapples " :P
Hola!! Si vienen a mi país y hacen esos cimientos para ese muro, van a la cárcel. Lo primero y alarmante es el hierro que le pusieron , una varilla horizontal y los hierros verticales está bien, la verdad una vergüenza!!!
The quality of the videos is really improving. I really really like watching experts do their thing. You guys are the best.

It takes some real science to make a wall, for sure. It is going to look fabulous when done.
I concur
TY
Still amazes me that you actually work with your guys.
I don't have a gym membership
Idk why but nice squared off dirt is so satisfying to look at
True
TY
Under what circumstances would it be bad to wet set and get sag? With retaining walls we always let the foundation sit and cure a bit per plans.
I'm not sure if you mentioned it, are the two neighbors splitting the cost?
no I didn't mention that, but yes it's a shared property line wall.
Excellent show I enjoy all your shows. Your crew works together very professional all your work is first rate
TY
We try
Always push like love the videos odell!!
I really should, but I'm not a pushy guy.

This is probably one of your harder projects to figure cost on....quite a confined space to work in.
I enjoyed the action!

9:30 cutting the roots on the palm tree weakened it so when there is a storm or heavy rains it could topple over.

Thats a bummer
Great work! I’d love to see a curved wall like that... I have to do one and would like to have reference on how to do it right! 😋

Is this considered a good neighbor fence or was it on someone's property?

That’s a nice fence

how does the water escape from the first block course if its below grade,is flashing needed.
Soil percolation
Very interesting way of block walling. DO you keep your work to a local aspect of do you work over long distances? Thankyou for sharing David.
I like to stay within a 10 mile radius
I love your videos,how much cost this project?

When do you need a cold joint in a block wall? I’m installing a 40’ wall.
Every 30

Do both home owners split the price of the wall?
Not in my neighborhood...

Yes its a split if you have a neighbor that can afford it
How many you have to dig to be on code ?
Nice job!

I just extended my block wall, we used 8x8x16 blocks, very stout wall. Didn’t need a permit so no inspection, not sure why.

Odell Complete Concrete yes mesa az, and it wasn’t a wall the separated backyards, just extended my wall to edge of the front of my house.

Is there a cement pond up there at chez Odell? If no, then why not?

How much did this wall cost? Did the neighbors split the cost?
Yes
4500
How much was only for the drain system?
1500
What do you mean by your rebar rusting out?
Not sure, but steel does rust
very nice

Are the open end joints for drainage???
yes
How do you know how much cement you need to pour in to the foundation
Width times length times depth divided by 27
Great tutorial. 👍
Where are the kneepads when wet setting? 😬☺

So you know going in you have a buried NG line but no mark out or locating is done? I'm asking because you don't talk about it in the narrative.
I had a good idea where it was.

That concrete looked like soup. Why was it so watery?
The prime water from the pump was being pushed from the concrete down hill.

that is block slump stone to be exact
