Сongrats! 😀

Thanks for driving over and picking it up.

I hear that. TY

You are right. Just because in other parts of the world you rarely do concrete patios for a number of reasons, from technical aspects to traditions or simply cost (Not being allowed to seal the area for drainage reasons, just because it is uncommon and traditionally you would more likely find pavers, because concrete is only used as a substrate to lay tiles or whatever... I bet there are still numerous other reasosn why things are done different.), why don´t make it look nice where it is a common material. Here where I live in Germany concrete is mainly a structural material. You rarely see it afterwards. Sometimes they use it for roads with high truck traffic. But looking in other places like switzerland around Zurich, they do a lot of visible concrete. (Anyone familiar with Le Corbusier?) Personaly, no matter how "nicely done" I don´t like concrete that much, I would prefer some nice pavers or a wooden deck, but hey, thats personal preference and anyone is free to disagree with me on that one.

because mexicans are the only people who work hard….. 👍

Thank you very much

The tools aren't that crucial but the guy using them is.

I concur

Maybe use a blower and blow them out

The more the merrier

I have a video on that subject

I think the main thing with air entrained is to not overwork it

It really depends what area you live in

Straighter lines and less people

The Masonry Company

Aerated concrete, if overworked removes the air holes

20 x 24 by yourself would be hard work.. I would make it 2 pours or if you haven't done this before do 3 or 4 pours. The thing about concrete is its not going to wait for. Once it's on the ground. The clock is ticking. When I do concrete by myself I limit the pour to 200 sq ft

Not that I know of

1lb per yd. Mixed in the truck

@@OdellCompleteConcrete Thanks for reply. Would localized application of pre-mixed Cement Patcher work? Will it adhere to pad?

PC concrete epoxy, but it’s expensive. It goes on smooth and shiny though. Would look nice.

No need in this climate and soil conditions
