Pouring Concrete Drive at RRHQ 2.0 

Much respect to the older man working hard and making it look easy. Watching the crew work through the pour and finish was like watching witnessing a perfectly executed end around go for a touchdown. And your drainage system design was spot on. Awesome video Kyle.

Shout out to that civil war veteran still out there working! That dude hammered rivets on the titanic for his first construction job!

Kyle... I was taken aback at how phenomenal 2.0 is shaping up! The guttering section before this was the best view of how you want your runoff to flow! The concrete work shown here is absolutely incredible... especially with that " ROLLER STRIKE " screed ! That ought to be in every concrete crew's back pocket... what an EPIC twist of simple engineering turned into one of the finest " earth shattering " solutions EVER INVENTED! Thanks again for sharing these mutually beneficial TIPS & TRIX! Respectfully and humbled, Seth

Cole was a massive help to beat the sun going down! Your daughter helping was awesome too! The concrete crew did an awesome job!

Seriously I could watch someone work concrete all day, like you said, setting the boards for the pitch & working the concrete. Looks awesome & can't wait to see it all done...

Beautiful and clean. Well thought and planned. Job well done.

The amount of envy I have for this shop is off the charts.

Full credit to that old boy still pouring concrete, he must be knocking on 80yo & he's more than keeping up with the younger crew.

Nice to see REAL PROFESSIONALS doing concrete work. Perfection.

I follow you because I really enjoy the attention to detail. That's a huge thing for me.

Its awesome that you have Cole getting more involved. He's gonna remember all this work forever, I wish I was able to do more projects like that together with my Dad.

I love that concrete crew. Slow and steady. Clearly they have been doing this a long time

Did anyone else notice that the concrete was setting faster were the low e glass was reflecting on 4 spots? The concrete was surface dryi g much faster. I think it was about at 16:17. Those windows work great! And the roller screed blew me away. One of your best videos

Normally a pro can make something look easy, but even with these guys it looked like a ton of freaking work!

Work fascinates me. I could watch it all day!

Kyle, not using corrugated pipe and keeping the slope on the underground drainage is awesome and has a really great side effect of not allowing mosquitoes to breed in your underground pipe segments which is where a lot of peoples mosquito problems come from and they have no idea.

Buen trabajo , veteranos y jovenes con gana de trabajar, él hormigon quedo muy bien. Saludos desde Uruguay🇺🇾👋

Love the bucket on that skid-steer! I’ve never seen one like that; that’s handy!

I’m sure Kyle knows this but since he’s taught me some tips and tricks I’ll share it. Duct tape that primer and glue together. It’s a life saver. Not only to carry but makes it 100x less tippy

My dad was a GC back in the 60's and early 70's. He had a vibrating screed he built himself. The main part was a electric motor mounted on a wood platform that was attached to a offcenter lead weight, that he cast himself, mounted in pillow blocks with an rag joint between them. He would attach the platform to whatever size 2x that was needed for the job. A rope would be attached at each end so it could be pulled along the form. A electric cord ran out one rope to a j-box that had a twist switch on it. The first time that I got to see it was in the early 90's when we poured a pad for my parents motorhome. It worked fantastic and the concrete truck drivers were all fascinated by it as they had never seen anything like it. Dad gave it to me when they sold the house.

What a blessing to have the knowledge, talent and finances to build a shop nicer than many homes.Amazing work. Thanks for all the tips and tricks.

That's a huge job! I've always admired how these concrete crews work to get the concrete looking so good!

My wife walked in as I was watching this video and said “that is really pretty” I guess your shop is wife approved Kyle. 👍

Concreting looks easy, but you can see there’s much more to it than it looks. There’s a whole lot of experience involved to make it look this easy.

Wow wow wow truly amazing work if you've ever worked concrete and you watch these guys awesome just awesome work thanks for sharing your adventure of the concrete world and with the new tools and the new ways that they're doing things until the next one 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙😁

I’ve watched this from the start and I can’t wait for winter!!! Inside is gonna be just as badass as the exterior!

That roller was amazing of how fast work it made of screeding the concrete. It’s hard to beat a man at his on game!!!

WOW …. THATS A LOT OF YDS IN WHAT LOOKS LIKE SIX INCH … $$$$$$$$ NICE !

I liked the Victory Outdoor Services reference. Looking good.

Hi Kyle I'm a big fan of your channel, in from Yorkshie, England. We are known for our strong accents, but I love the way you say ( kahncrete ) not sure if that's how most mid west people speak, but it's got a proper workers sound to it. Full respect to you and Greg for your hard work.

Kyle, as a plumber, who came in while we were still using optical survey tools, I was always told 1% was enough, 2% was ideal and 3% is too much. So, if you only had 6" (0.5') of fall in 50' you would be OK- a whole foot would have been ideal and a foot and a half too much. But it is a clear water drainage line, so too fast and running off from solids isn't an issue. But a pipe that is steady on it line and doesn't trap water in sags and bellies is what you want. How is the interior finish going?

QUALITY Sells Itself All Day Long!!! ☮️💜🇺🇸

Geez - Michael getting some killer shots of this concrete install. I predict RR gets a call to license some footage for next year’s World of Concrete show. Would make some killer video for a booth. The concrete installer should pay to have Michael edit a promo reel to host here on RU-vid for marketing.

I don't think I've ever seen a concrete job finished that clean. It looks awesome!

Outstanding concrete work. What an accomplishment!!! This shop is amazing.

The art of concrete looks awesome!!!

Fantastic work - all of it. Even the concrete looked like it was delivered with consistent slumps.

Was really hoping you would install a solar powered under-slab heating system in to keep snow and ice off the drive area. Looking forward to learning about HVAC efficiency this winter. 👍👍👍

Those concrete boys had their trade craft down. Fantastic looking concrete job.

I have worked with that concrete roller on a couple of jobs works so great !! Make the finishing so easy when it brings the cream to the top of the pour.

made in america,beautiful work cowboy as always.🙏💕

good to see the mesh reinforcement is in the top 1 third of the concrete height. may aswell of not even put mesh in at that point.

What a superb job they made of the concrete, buildings not bad either😂😂, great series, loving every installment, 👍👍👍👍👍👍.

HQ is looking top notch -- that's the best advertisement for your company

I love watching this project get built. So satisfying! Awesome content

Love me a 30' spin screed... Never seen anyone run fascia on the outer edge to protect it. Great idea!

HQ 2.0 is really looking fantastic, it really showcases all of your dedication and skill..!!

Those guys are good.

Love yuns 💙💙

Looking fantastic Kyle, those guys did an amazing job!

So relaxing to watch.

At 8:15 that man's been doing concrete a lot of years for sure

Pouring the concrete drive at RRHQ 2.0 is a testament to your dedication and hard work in creating a solid foundation for your project.

It’s truly inspiring to see how you bring your vision to life with such care and precision. And I am Floating Village Life.

Love watching concrete being poured

I know from experience you’ll be happy you done this for all the water off your roof! It’ll be a lot of water!!!

Os melhores profissionais do concreto. Perfeito.

I would love to see more of your building inside and outside. The plumbing, the heated floor, how you have the setup, the stairs for the upstairs, and all the good things you got going with this building

Wow! These concrete guys are REALLY good!! Congratz on your new slabs! 😁👍🏼😁👍🏼

May want to consider adding some french drain pipe at the edge of your slab where it meets the uphill grade. That will help avoid water building up under the edge of the slab and heaving the slab in the freezing weather.

lovin old mate rolling shirtless!!! he knows concrete

Kyle, we use to install clean out on every connection between the downspout and the underground storm water system.

I like seeing it being poured so thick! It should last you a long time, Kyle!

I just finished a 175' driveway back to my shop. It's fantastic.

That roller was awesome haven't seen one of those in years.

I'd suggest 12" of river rock around the perimeter of the concrete with a 4" corrugated field tile at the bottom for drainage.

Dont forget to pull the wire mesh up into the concrete.

Hi Kyle, well nothing beats some really great looking concrete work to set a building off and really make it look great! Kudos to you for pre-planning utilities and the drainage for the building. I would have used larger pipe for the main flow, but good luck with what you ran! I very much enjoy watching you and Greg do that you guys do so well, making great buildings!

Incredible concrete pour. Top notch!

Looks like just the place for the R&R block party.

Beautiful, I am jealous of the concrete! Question - would drains in the middle have helped wick water away or would that not have worked in this scenario?

You always have to bring 2 cans of primer to a plumbing job, 1 to use and 1 to sacrifice to the plumbing gods

I need to see how you finish the interior. Like plumbing and electrical for RRHQ 2.0!

Definitely great concrete work!

Man that garage door looks nice, love the glass windows

As always, I'm jealous of that great black Midwestern dirt! Makes me want to visit and bring home a truckload (to eastern TN). You couldn't dig like that here...just about takes a jackhammer!

Cool roller tool. Concrete looks great. Congrats

That roller bar sure saved a lot of back!!!

Your building looks awesome.

Those were some LEGIT concrete guys.

That looks great! I hope your concrete guys didn’t back a truck over the drain tiles for your gutters! My neighbor said that that is what happened when they poured my driveway! Ugh! If I was doing it, I would have added some wire mesh over the top of the drain pipe in conjunction with some rock so it would support the concrete really well. My neighbor is a concrete guy so with his help we have added additional drain pipe and resolved any problems we could have with a collapsed drain pipe!

That's massive 😮

Might have put some chairs under that wire mesh… unless they pulled it up by hand after the mud was poured over it.

Lura Lighting Strike is the best roller screed out there!

Nice to see RRHQ2.0 is progressing well. They did an amazing job and it looks awesome. It will come into its own once the rain and snow arrive. Not sure if I missed it but has the “blower test” been done? Would be interesting to see how that is done on such a large structure.

He needs to wear those sunglasses alot more in the other videos they are so cool! haha i love them Kyle!

SUPER interested in seeing the interior work on this building!

That guy without the shirt on is the coppertone sun tan lotion boy from the 70 and 80, he's promoting it again after all these years. Coppertone smells good and gives you that nice summer leather jacket look. Coppertone for rough skin tone

I am looking forward to seeing the motor home.

In the community I live in. If you empty down spouts from a roof into a creek or stream, you need an Order of Conditions from the Towns Conservation Committee. Then the planning board will review that and give recommendations. If approved the building department is notified to make sure that the drainage system was on the original building permit. If not, you may have to pay an additional fee. The Board of Health is notified because you are taking water from a structure and placing it in the ground. If you make it by all of them AND pay their fees you are ok. And if they real want to make it difficult for you. Any one of them can call the Fire Department because you are working near a gas line.

Please continue to cover the 2.0 build. Would really like to see the journey and finished dream.

Nicely done, great information. Make sure you put a screen or grating over the end of your drain pipe to keep critters from nesting in the pipe.

Never use corrugated piping. SO GLAD YOU DIDN'T.

14:23 - an hour? wow. They've been working on my street since April and still have to put down 2 1/2 inches of asphalt My hope is they are done by Thanksgiving, but expect it to run to Christmas.

Great contest thank you!!!

I would live in that shop it's so nice!

Will the wire mesh maintain its separation over the gravel when they step on it while working on the concrete? I see that a guy pulls it, but they still step on it. Would've been better to use at least 3/8 rebar with limbers-rebar chairs instead?

So sick! 🙌🙌

Smart to pour width of longest screed board too. That way you're not guessing

I still prefer Concrete with the Hauses (TSH Concrete) out of North Pittsburgh, but pretty nice!

Hell yeah🔥
