    Great job! I especially like the multiple compactions. I am a homeowner dealing with a sinking roadway due to inadequate compaction so that really hit home with me. Its great to see someone that obviously cares about their work.

      We take every step to make sure we not only meet but exceed the industry standard. We also recommend that customers never use deicing chemicals, apply penetrating sealers, and caulk joints. Usually all this adds up to a slab that should last a few decades.

    • @jmconcretecoloradosprings
      @jmconcretecoloradosprings  3 роки тому +5

      That is a good question. And I have met people who run concrete pours who don't know how to finish. But the men in these videos respect me because they all agree I am the most proficient finisher there. And I am willing to pay someone to take my place so I can keep my distance and quality control everything. I can't finish everything by myself so atleast I can make sure everyone else is doing everything as perfect as possible. I used to finish a lot and still help friends and family pour jobs. But on my projects when it comes to the pours I run the buggy or supervise and coordinate. But if it starts to set up fast i can and will step in to make sure it comes out great.
