It’s nice to have two ruff leveller’s I worked for many forms who don’t like paying wages so I had to ruff level screed hand cast colour float trowel up then stamp the concrete I was on £100 pound a day You have a good team fella well finished 👍
As a finisher I can speak for all and give a shout out to our backs . On a Sunday night after 1.5days of recovery my wife gets to enjoy the full pipe game
Thanks for your priceless, practical advice. The mark of a true artisan or craftsman is when they can make their work look easy. Nice job & I love your accent. I'm from the states. I look forward to more wisdom & advice & have a great weekend!
We use two guys to screed and use a 16 feet long screed. Much faster. Interesting to see how it’s done differently down under. We don’t wear shorts either when we pour. 😁
Half the work of concrete screeding is in what I call "quantity". It starts with the guy on the chute/pump, then the guy on the vibrator, then the guy on the rake, then the guy on the screed. If the guy on the chute/pump puts the correct quantity in, the whole screed bay is easy. The vibrator man can control it a bit with the vibrator and tells the pumpy more or less. Then the guy on the rake has to move the crete if there's too much or not enough, then the screeder after the rake. It's a team game concreting, that's why is a lot harder if you are a DIYer or doing it on your own. Either no one knows what they're meant to be doing, or you have to do everything yourself.
Bro this is awesome video it is long but when paying attention and looking carefully at how you move a screed especially when pulling a sludge and levelling it off, it is a repetitive basic movement. It is easy to follow. I have no experience at all in this trade but I am DIY guy and I like this video. Bro please are you able to make a short video explaining the part of a screed rail and which edge and direction that makes the concrete smooth. Just please explain more in detail. Thanks Bro
Fellas please don’t forget it’s all about the company that brings the concrete also I do concrete work and sometimes concrete doesn’t be mixed right and for it to come out smooth asf in this video you can see it’s mixed good. Great job
Keep up your Hard Yakka for beings to occupy and live safely within, and not for the job to simply be done. Slowly but surely however flat, square, and Correct. 😎 #Concrete&Aus
Guys be warned as a tradesman, concrete can make a fool out of anyone, it looks easy because theyre great at their job. Leave to professionals 😂 the headache aint worth it
It's only hard if you make it hard. One of my favorite finishers says that a lot. You either love it or you hate it. There's nothing I'd rather do any day of my life than pour concrete
One man doing a two man job is why it took him twice as long. The raker did most of the work here he was to be so precise to be able to screed this way.
Nice job I’m a concrete guy also , can rake well but never learned to screed yet (not paid enough 😂) it takes a year or more just to be a good raker, and screeding is way tougher on the body! What slump do you poor at looked like a 6 ? Fair amount of bleed water for no poly. I see some guys using super on here and looks a lot easier and is stronger than adding water , do you use it?
Ohh willy somebody tugging on your wombat. Great to comment from an armchair pulling on your little willy. Keep up the good work your comments really inspire folks
Prawnchowmein Well I think you’re wrong I have lived in Australia all my life and my parents are Maltese . I think my accent comes from smoking too much weed 😂😜
lol.... only pulling your leg mate, been watching your videos for hours, quality work, like your style, had a contractor argue with me saying you can only lay concrete in bays 2 metres by 1 metre because its impossible to reach with your trowel, what a muppet obviously he's never seen you and your team in action. hi 5 from London uk.
Very interesting and I've really learnt slot. Please may I know the (1) mixing ratio used in this concrete (2) like the most floor concrete I have wittiness, powder cement are spread on the surface before shining but not so in this case still looks nice. What's the secret Sir? Thank you as I look forward to read from you.
Oyenaike Oluwaseun Hey mate thanks for watching and we do not put any powder in the concrete it is already mixed at the concrete plant this mix is probably 20. 25 20 mil stone and 25 mpa .
Do you build your strikeoff to yourself? I'm in the USA and I use a 12ft aluminum 2x4, but the strikeoff you guys use looks awesome. I'd love to try one
Are the green screeders for finishing like a float or can they take much abuse pulling the concrete. An example is if you've Abit to much piled up in front of you and pulling it towards you.
celtic works it’s just what we use in Australia to screed the concrete where are use old ones for sand and a new one is always good to use on the concrete
I just dont understand why your not pulling the sceed off the board on one side. Arnt the boards set to height?I do like the one handing screeding. With bar on top though
chucker roo thanks mate the reason I am not screeding off the board is because a high-powered is always better The timber could be a bit up-and-down . 👍
Bad ass! Down here in the great republic of TEXAS a 16’ mag screed would of gotten you out of there in no time. Looks great though, first time I saw that rod a mean finisher was knocking out curb and cutter, respect !
That's how a guy gets a flat floor... Do you cut your wet grade pads with a 7 foot rod also ? Could use some advice like to try your method out and toss that 16 foot rod board come Monday morning !! Please ninja man need your skillful advice ! Thanks
Clifton Brewster You can use the 10 Footer The whole time if you like . There is lots of videos on my channel of me screeding concrete . If you got any questions don’t hesitate to ask 💯👊
my backs starting to hurt watching these guys
I’m currently an apprentice and this is quite the help! Thank you for the video!
Kayla Isaacs any time there is lots of videos on my channel over 300 concrete videos
It’s nice to have two ruff leveller’s
I worked for many forms who don’t like paying wages so I had to ruff level screed hand cast colour float trowel up then stamp the concrete I was on £100 pound a day
You have a good team fella well finished 👍
I don’t think I will ever get tired of concrete videos, thank you for posting this knowledge it is a great resource
Nathan McIntosh thanks bro for watching 👍
Good ole concrete been a concrete layer since 97 still love it to this day mate
Good job, I Enjoy watching this perfect screeding
best wishes from Syria
ZURZUR SHAHEAN thanks bro and thanks for watching more to come soon 👊
Cheka mi trabajo

1freethinkr thanks mate for your kind words . You have an awesome weekend as well 👊
Thanks mate. That’s going to help me screed and finish my small slab. Thanks plenty.
Your rake guy is damn near everything.
Awesome placement. Makes the screed guys job a piece of cake
Different techniques in different places mate. In the US this would be unusual for sure, but you seem to be very good at it.
Yo! Where i’m from we use 2 people to “rod” concrete, a magnesium 2x4 with two finishers on each end pulling concrete all smooth
lol we pour like 5 trucks an hour no way you can screed it that slow
@@phillipsimmons7896 oh, yeah?
@@phillipsimmons7896 wow you're the man
Dudes smoking a ciggie while concreting, you don't get more Australian than that
the smoke is part of the process without the smoke the concrete can't harden
Awesome 👏!!!! That mud seals up so nice!!
If you are looking to buy a screed like the one we use Master Finish check out the link www.agpulie.com.au
We use two guys to screed and use a 16 feet long screed. Much faster.
Interesting to see how it’s done differently down under. We don’t wear shorts either when we pour. 😁
Erik Cortina and it’s the gayest thing I seen to be honest ... sorry juts being honest . We over here use one man one screed
The 1st thing and most important is a good crew where everybody knows their job.
For real? A crew who knows what their doing is important?
Or just know how to do it yourself and teach everyone you hire. 🤷♂️ not hard at all
@@Pablo_19_26 Well, that's how you get a good crew. It takes time, because one just doesn't magically know how to do it himself.
Just home from job now very very tired the guy on the rake behind was not a guy for raking and I'm paying for it now 🙄

catphish81 Nice one bro you know what’s going on 👊
Bloke on the rake did a top job, screeder isnt pulling mountains, well done mate!

Your a champion mate ,learnt something great video nice work 👍👍👍👍
Brilliant mate. You're giving me confidence to tackle me driveway this dry season
Did you start it?
@@kbanghart I think he's still working on leveling using Ninja's finishing methods. lol Those methods don't work here in the States.
Fellas please don’t forget it’s all about the company that brings the concrete also I do concrete work and sometimes concrete doesn’t be mixed right and for it to come out smooth asf in this video you can see it’s mixed good. Great job
Im not a concreter but im enjoying watching you and your crew doing a great job. You all make it look so easy.
You guys made it look really easy 👍.
Thanks bro it’s all in the TecNICA know what you’re looking for
I like that screed board. We don't have those here in California
PACOLOCO559 Thanks bro I’m pretty sure you have a couple now . 👍😜 A few guys from California have brought them so far 👊
I notice Australia does a lot of stuff exactly like we do it here in the us. This is exactly how we pour. The drywall finishers do it the same too.
nice and slow screeder, mean as job bro,love your work..
Bliss to hear an Aussie accent after hours of American concreting vids. Happy New Year!
I do the same thing here in Seattle wa USA concrete walls slabs steps, all kind of stuff, but i like the way, the guy screed beautiful
RUBEN CRUZ thanks mate 👍🇦🇺
the technique is all in the coral colored pants - great job guys
Back must be on fire the next day. Nice clean work with a good team behind you. Nice work.
Back only hurts whn U stop moving...steady work saves lives!! ---(And bodies) **way 2 stay busy & healthy fellas!!

#Concrete&Aus
Guys be warned as a tradesman, concrete can make a fool out of anyone, it looks easy because theyre great at their job. Leave to professionals 😂 the headache aint worth it
As a masonry laborer, I can confirm
As Someone who just started boxing and doing mowing strips, I can confirm, I’ll stick to fencing
Back pain 😂😢
As a tiler who screeds sand cement, I can confirm how hard it is to screed. Concrete is so unforgiving
It's only hard if you make it hard. One of my favorite finishers says that a lot. You either love it or you hate it. There's nothing I'd rather do any day of my life than pour concrete
I love this so much. I'm into building constructions in Nigeria. i really need to travel to another country to upgrade my work.
What brand of screed are you using? I would like to get this in different sizes. Thanks 👍
Who needs a bull float anyways !! Great job !
that was professional as heck, good work fellas!
Thanks mate
Good advice with the pacing yourself ninja. All i know is that the hurrier i go, the behinder i get!!!
Do you have a video on setting screed pins?
Nice work bro been watching from NZ for awhile now master at work
Cameron Rolston that’s awesome bro thanks 👊 for the feedback
great screeding champ!!!
Severe on the back I prefer to tamp with long handles and bull float job done !
Great tips brother keep up the good work
Invincible Android thanks bro 👊
Please can I get those tools for my personal use
In America we would have that pad down in ten minutes. 2 man 16 foot straight edge. You do a nice job on that one man though.
One man doing a two man job is why it took him twice as long. The raker did most of the work here he was to be so precise to be able to screed this way.
Too slow..... TIME IS MONEY!! This can be done quicker and still turn out amazing. But he still did a good job.
Overworking too much, it's just a pass to level.... the bull float closes the concrete
Point high put your concreting skill on UA-cam love to see the king in action
Nice job
One man in Poland is fascinated by your work. His name is Łukasz Budowalaniec and he also has his own UA-cam profile
Tomasz Zalewski thank you very much and thank you for watching I know who you are talking about he is an awesome man 👌👍
nice cool cloudy day concrete pour
Where can i get that screed
Here because of victory outdoors,you got a sub
I made my own screed. Where’d you get that one with a handle?
Nice job I’m a concrete guy also , can rake well but never learned to screed yet (not paid enough 😂) it takes a year or more just to be a good raker, and screeding is way tougher on the body! What slump do you poor at looked like a 6 ? Fair amount of bleed water for no poly. I see some guys using super on here and looks a lot easier and is stronger than adding water , do you use it?
here after victory shouted you out, great video!
awesome tecnic
9:25 clip -- I see your crack-pipe fell into the concrete and you threw it aside mate! Your doing a two-man job and did it well.
well done made me look ya trickster ..
Dose that combo screed have a round and a square edge. Witch goes away from you.???
have the square cutting edge facing you
Nice job guys i like this video i've learn a lot thanks.
Try under pinning forms if you got numb nuts putting the vibrators right in footings
Ohh willy somebody tugging on your wombat. Great to comment from an armchair pulling on your little willy. Keep up the good work your comments really inspire folks
Great team work
Great screeding, If anyone is wondering where this guy is from he’s from Northern Ireland, I recognise that accent anywhere,
Prawnchowmein Well I think you’re wrong I have lived in Australia all my life and my parents are Maltese . I think my accent comes from smoking too much weed 😂😜
lol.... only pulling your leg mate, been watching your videos for hours, quality work, like your style, had a contractor argue with me saying you can only lay concrete in bays 2 metres by 1 metre because its impossible to reach with your trowel, what a muppet obviously he's never seen you and your team in action. hi 5 from London uk.
Prawnchowmein 😂😂😂😂😜 thanks bro thanks for watching it deathly made me laugh first comment 😂👌👊🇦🇺
Excellent job guys
Helps when concrete is nice and runny not to thick
Whats the point in taking so long to seal it up as youre screeding when youre going to bullfloat it anyway?
Because you know it is flat when you do that when you Bull float to close it up you are dropping your Heights to close the gap
@@concreteninjathat slump looks pretty tight also. Why not loosen it up with a reducer to a 6 or 7? Less work lol
Great video I'm going to old concrete guy lots of credits your shovel man sure makes your job a lot easier give him a $2 raise LOL
We're called muckers. Shovel man sounds like some undertakers club.
The man on the red is the hero
Nice work respect from morocco
We have this thing in America called a viborscreed. Pretty much a weed eater attached to a aluminum rod
Shane Fonville Will have them to but no one likes using them they are not good enough for some jobs .
I thought it was a soccer team there for a minute 🤣🤣. Good job though 👌
I liked this video. It was a little relaxing. 😅

james vandyke thanks mate it’s Awesome to use
Where can I buy the screed! One man operation. What brand is that.
How long are those screed bars?? 10ft?
Seems like alot of mud leakin out the bottom of the forms....but what do I know.
Nice job. Thumbs up.
Beautiful job boys
Good job guys, what green screed bar is that, looking at getting some new kit at the moment
Masterfinish
That screener is a nice magnesium with handle but would it be too much to put a leveler on it?
You can buy them with a level inside
how big was the slab and how long did you take you
Are the green screeders for finishing like a float or can they take much abuse pulling the concrete. An example is if you've Abit to much piled up in front of you and pulling it towards you.

Where can I buy one of those screeders?
Great job
Thanks for the advice. Pace yourself
Where can I get one of those screed boards
Nice job 👍
What length ia thw screed your using i need one
I just dont understand why your not pulling the sceed off the board on one side. Arnt the boards set to height?I do like the one handing screeding. With bar on top though

Thanks for the lesson
Very, very cool !!!
Did you set elevation stakes to mark the top or a laser
Laser
Marvellous craftsmanship mate, I bid you thanks. #Correct
Soni T thanks mate 👍
What is the name brand of your screed?

Aye mansel mud is the bomb goes bang to gotta watch it. Also gotta love when the owner does their own pad and miles out of fucking level.
Nice work m8...builders will regret leaving their waratahs exposed to concrete
