Poor comunication with my customer almost cost me this job!!!!!! 

I’m a contractor builder, you get one of these customers about every 1000 people most people are the coolest to work for. Keep up the good work

A++ the dude will end up appreciating having a strong slope on the concrete to keep the water from running back into the shed.

I enjoy and respect your honesty... very refreshing.

Thanks Bondo. Looked good. Your a good contractor.

Nice work brother keep up the video.👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Put it in writing and use change orders. You may need to use it in court down the road on some other job.

Awesome work 💪👍

Well said sir...communication is key!

thanks for sharing always enjoy the info and videos! Is the garage for a car? Does it have a wood floor ?

The real acme of skill is being able to explain something complex to a 5 year old. Pictures help. It's why I work for other contractors now. Coming up I worked for company that had an architect in between our work and the customer. Life was much simpler when they give plans and we do what is on the plan and the architect tells the customer to pay up

Your fairness and flexibility wins out. Another good job Mr. Bond.

Ole biscuit fills those wheel barrows right up, ain't scared of no hard work!

A good way to go (for your customer’s peace of mind and for your records) is to buy an iPad (nothing too fancy) that can run a “builder’s software” or enables you to create a graphic design of the property and their wants. That way you can not only a visual representation of expected outcomes, but also keep a digital record of it in case there is any dispute in the future as to agreed upon designs, material costs, time expectancy, etc.

I KNEWWWW you were in CNY from your accent :P I'm from Scriba/Oswego County! Idk how you popped up on my feed bc i live in Louisville, KY now but I love your channel...reminds me of doing construction w my uncle in my 20s! Keep it upppp, they need good, hard working people there. Just came from the asshole clients who had a fit about the cig butt and parking on the grass, etc. and between that and your accent (which they teased me endlessly for when I moved here lol) i just KNEW where you were lol i said oh wow that sounds like about where I'm from haha. NYers living in the country.....I think that must be it, right. Idk!

Sure was awful nice haven big biscuit dew the heavy lifting. Fixin I mean your back wood a been broke. Thanks again for the video. Always good to talk than text. Hope your doing well miss the videos

The guy in the orange shirt and black shorts is GORGEOUS

Are there leaves in the concrete or is it just a bad float job before you broomed it? At 12:33 you get a good look at all the bad areas.

Looks Excellent job

Good job Ron. Of course you don’t want it sitting in a “hole”. Thanks. Back to making rebar protectors.

Eventually he will be glad it was set higher. At least when he has heavy rain it won’t be coming into the shed.

Nice 👍

First 👍's up thank you for sharing

I love that im hored to do things for homeowners who cant do them themselves. Then they tell me how to do whst theu dobt know how to do.

Me, 8-10 weeks out since Covid does create some issues. I've cut back some and things have slowed a bit. 3-4 weeks customers stay happier.

Looks good

I really enjoy the videos you guys make. Your team seems to be very good with high tolerance and rigid customer service. Do you have any tips for the viewers on how to start or manage a concrete company? I think a lot of us watching currently work in construction and want to also do something similar to what you have done

Looking good 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Looks good! I would be concerned about the rotting stump. If it breaks down (which it will), it will create a void/sink hole. That is exactly what happened to our driveway... caused cracking and huge dip.

I think that there should be a lot more companies like you that are up front with your customers even if it may put you at risk of losing a job….. The homeowner should have contracted the jobs separately, having you lay the 3/4” drainage stone, and pour the driveway+ walkway. And thats it. I used to get bullied by my customers until i learn how to write better contracts. I will admit that i had to pay to have the first written for me, but it gave me a template to write further guidelines and also was adjusted to my specific business and not a general contract from google or whatever

Im in business myself and sounds like were alot alike as far as just walking away even if it cost me a little its worth not losing more in the end.

25 years in business, down state here on L.I obviously 15 years or so there was no texting, but maybe a quick sentence by text but to explain a home owner that has no clue of what it takes to what we do for a living you can't text, infact sometimes I won't do it over the phone. I would go to the job and show the home owner and explain everything and even Wright everything down what I going to do on contract. The worst is when you are there on a Saturday and you still have to come back on Monday to finish the job and the neighbor comes by or a relative comes by and sees what's going on and maybe 30 years ago or when they were younger and the worked a couple of seasons being a helper or a laborer and they tell the home owner that why did I do something this way and I did that wrong and put stupid thoughts in home owners head and the first thing when you show up Monday morning and the home owner says we'll my neighbor said this or that or my brother inlaw says I am supposed to do it this way. All of a sudden everyone is a mason. It's a bitch and I am sure you have been through that. CONCRETE TRUCKS HERE LETS GO!!! CUSTOM CONCRETE is my company's name, down here on L.I. can't sweat the small stuff is my mato.

no chairs for the wire? fiber sux!!! i replaced many fiber slabs till i started useing rebar. 5 starr builders of texas.

I would rather have a concrete floor in the shed for less money than the wood floor

Some people just can't see it till it's all done!

How do you find Labourers?. I did my 52ftx30ft driveway with 2 buddies and could of used 2-3 more guys

Hey bondo Ive got some questions on the radiant floor I did your way could you help me out its 34x53 and I put 4 loops 400’

There seems to be marks or blemishes on the concrete? I’m a big fan of sms, always have record of conversations. Looks good. Did you do the slab in the garage as well? Cheers from Oz.

Why the large fiber mesh? Microfibers would have worked great, and you don't see them. Why no expansion joint on the building?

How do I get in touch with you about a project pole barn floor with heat

Is that grass mixed on the concrete?

Pro tip: A pump is always worth getting. You could get rid of one guy, get it done faster, save your back, save money on stand by time. Never understood why guys do this.

Why didn't you pull up the 6x6 wire into the center of the concrete?

What were all those hole lookin things in the concrete? Was that the aggregate?

Shed company is full of crap. That's where most of the customers confusion came from. Looks good 👍

No control joints on this pour?

Never text with a customer it could come back and bite you in the ass !! I found out the hard way with a "He said ,I said " kinda deal ,that I didnt remember saying but the customer showed me the text . So then I was obligated to do what he wanted even though it cost me in the end ! Same with buying and selling cars never text about the price and transaction !! Get everything written down on paper !

Victory 💪 for the win baby

Would you know a concrete contractor in southern dutchess county N.Y. ? Need to have my walk redone.

I need a new driveway!

i love concrete, lets go

Is that fiber mesh or what’s all over the concrete?

PM me I have an estimate question for a 24x50 ICF basement. Thanks

You should invest in a bull float help close that concrete up

Here comes the muuuuudddddd!!!

That and if they ever repo the shed they can come take it without it being pinned in by Crete

Why not Vitale? They great outfit

Nice work go back and saw cut some joints for the home owner try to control cracking as much as possible

Terrible detail burying the wood siding that goes from the front corner to the opening. Guaranteed termite /rot problems ahead!

This is the one thing I hate about no print from the customer

Why didn't yall pick up the mesh??? But over all Beautiful Work👌

No joints?

running right over the wire pushing it into the ground!!!

Bondo where have you been hope everything is well?

you should have lifted the steel so its in the center of the concrete. else is doing nothing there and crack easily.

Write it down. Not just the job but limitations. If there is a change in the scope of work requote. This was that case the customer does something thinking they made the job smaller but in reality they made it more work like to trips to job or more ground work. Happens all the time in tree work.

who does your concert warranty work😂😂😂😂

Whyd you start pouring so late?

I would rather have my shed on a slab and at the top with a small. Ramp. I would not want a shed into a hole and have all the rain sink my shed.

I actually agree with the customer

That finish looks bloody awful its not floated properly there's imperfections u can see them clearly

How does it work when you lift the wire, but then walk all over it? Seems like lazy work to me?

Guess he wasn't ready for the setting of the shed in place before you started there is no one to blame but only youself remember ppl with no function in construction don't know what time is

What??? Shed on a concrete pad will last a lot longer than on a gravel pad!

not one time did i see wire pulled up!!!! wow, home owner i will be your professional when you sue him for a cracking slap down the road. Every body is busy. texting customers is the most unprofessional thing you can do!

Has anybody heard from Ron? No videos nothing I hope everything's okay

Never pulled the wire mesh what’s the point of using it? Jus wasting money

No wire pulling

Buffalo ny here

Cause 9/10 home owner pays monthly on the shed just like a new car Financing

Can’t believe shed company won’t allow placement on concrete. No sense at all …

nobody pulling up wire you need chairs

you did not remove the stump??????? 😂😂😂😂😂Lol lololololol your pour customer.

start scheduling the jobs

Heeeyyy whatever happend to Jess

big biscuit

I disagree. Texting is a great way to communicate but you have to know how to write. An unrecorded phone conversation is useless in a dispute, but a text can be 100% clear. It's like a mini contract.

Want to know what the cure for lack of communication is as a contractor? A CONTRACT. Write what you will do and what you will not do before any money changes hand and any work begins. Write it down, with detail, give the owner a copy and read it to them. You could have avoided this issue. This is only the second video of yours I’ve ever watched and both times it SEEMS you caused yourself headaches by not having a written contract. You seem honest enough and the work in the two videos looks decent, but you shoot yourself in the foot repeatedly by being a CONTRACTOR who doesn’t WRITE CONTRACTS. I personally, would not hire you for that reason. It’s begging for misunderstandings.

The finish looks terrible man, there are holes all in the finish. Clearly wasn't floated or finished properly. Victory would never let something like this slide. Difference in ownership and pride I guess.

So like anyone else wondering why this guy is copy victory style? Like the way he talks and trys to act jolly like the other guy, its killing a ocd or sum, because video was good just the way he's making it out to and acting out cringed, I'll be waiting for the key board worries

your story puts me to sleep dude .

I would have put joints in there as a 5×5 to prevent cracking then broom

The shed company was worried about water damage and thehome owner wanted to put the shed in a hole and what pitch the concrete to the shed??? Umm you always pitch away.

it seems that very stressful job you got there. Customers usually are assholes in most cases so yeah better communication and honesty would help.

No joints?
