This is so lovely – we have a well done, but very aged 30 year old driveway. Cost to demo and replace are in excess of $30k. Just totally unaffordable for the average person. Appreciate seeing repair work!
Aren’t u suppose to clean and moist the concrete before the pour ?
One more thing, this rapid set product is completely waterproof you don't have to put a waterproof layer on it.
Also I would say if you're doing a DIY project. Never mix a full bag.
The brown bag is great for doing vertical walls.
Very impressive work !! I learned a lot watching this video !!! Thank you so much…. I have a question though. I have a radiator shop and my slab where I wash my radiators, the acid I use to clean them has over time caused the concrete to start getting thin and starting to open up cracks, but only in one spot where I wash about 3'X4', that is at a slight drop to my drain. Will I need to cut that whole spot out or is there a way I can lay another layer on top ?? Any info would be amazing…. Thanks !!
Night and day!! Great job
Excellent work. I never thought this would have turned out so good, and you made it look easy. I'm still not going to tackle my walk way on my own.
Time is running out !

Outstanding repair job. Thank you for sharing 🙏
The sound of those machines is overpowering your voice. My nerves cannot take this.
To slow the set down, you can add 0.04% sugar by weight. Add the sugar to the water and mix it thoroughly before adding it to the dry concrete. This will about double the working time and increase strength by 5-10%.
The same forces that broke apart the original concrete will break the new concrete. The problem is the substrate which was not addressed here.
i always thought you had to wet the repair before pouring the concrete.. so the dry crack doesn’t pull the moisture from the concrete and cause issues. or use a bonding agent
Would love to see a 2 year follow up to see how it held up..
Wear some knee pads. You will thank yourself in 20 years
Nice job though.
How many mixing buckets did you use because it set fast and sticks to the bucket?
Great video and great information
What sealer would you use if this was being done to a driveway?
You might want to do a favor for your future self and use knee pads. They’re cheaper than new knees.
Need to show the hydration process for rapid set. It will crack of you don't hydrate it. It will turn instantly in front of your eyes. Once that gloss disappears start hitting it with water. It will get hot.
Wow Québec love Canada 😊
Well, I don't have that preparing machine. What alternatives i can use for driveway? Ty.
Nice work 👍🏿
You and your team did a great job! WOW! 👍🏾
Nothing will fix that but a new pour,the underlining ground needs too be fixed.
What do the tapcon screws do?
what would you use to fill cracks in a patio and garage floor? can you add a little more water to thin it out so it gets into the cracks?
How is it holding up after a few winters?
Hey Mike , how did you feather those edges in? I'm doing a repair just like this.
for all the wet the surface first , WET THIS D
A 1.25-1.5 slab will never hold up in Maine, especially with no mesh.
Hi Mike Day
I live in a trailer park. I'm trying to find out how to reserface my patio top. It's old as the hills . I don't know what kind of cement was used to make these. Do you know anything I can use to resurface the prickly top of this patio? I want to be able to sit and bbq,and other things too.
Thanks,
Cheryl 🙂
Time will tell without a base💯
Great work!
Great Skills! Excellent….
What's the cost usually on that?
You make it look so easy.
No need for the tapcon screws
You also said right before the video was done that you were going to show what type of coating you put on top of the cement slabs to help protect them or paint and never did????? AND YOU NEVER WET SURFACE FIRST???? Even if your sad excuse was that their was no access to water at premises, even a teenager would have known to buy a pump sprayer for $25 at Home Depot and filled it with water before arrival LMAO!…—->AMATUERS! THAT JOB WILL BE CRACKING IN NO TIME!
Great job man looks fantastic
Great job! Looks amazing you got my subscription
No eye or hearing protection while breaking up the old concrete?
Ok watched you do your youtubes . I admire your hard work ethic and professionalism. Here's my dilemma. I live on Canada I'm restoring a farm house we own. Can't get anyone to do my stamp concrete. I'm 66 and still have my farmer stamina at least for 5 or six hours. I've got 700 square feet ready to pour. Do I need steal mesh or fiber? Now I may lose your confidence but I need to run this by you. 4 1/2 I get the ready mix truck in I only pour 3" Then get my 6 cube mixer out buy color and stamps mix my own concrete and do small peices I can handle. Can this be done and stand up. I've done concrete finishing as a jack of all trades farmer.
are u charging for your time for this awesome video
Would you not dampen the old surface or apply a slurry of some kind before the new concrete is applied?
great video! Is there any way to repair the edge of a foundation where it is cracking and flaking away where the brick sits on foundation?
Great video but I dont see the information of the topcoat? What did you use to seal it and make it look so nice? Thank you
