On today's episode of the Lake Hills City Birds I will be repairing my concrete birdbath. Over the winter it cracked and chipped. We did have some record cold temperatures for a week or so. I'm not sure if that contributed to the damage or not.
I apologize. I forgot to provide the links for the materials used.
I used Quikrete Hydraulic Water Stop Cement to fill in the cracks. Here is my Amazon link- amzn.to/3IkvL2Y
I also used 100% pure tung oil to add an extra layer of sealant to the bird bath. Tung Oil is used mostly on wood but it can also be used on concrete. Here is my Amazon link - amzn.to/4589H5n

Glad it worked out well but never identified concrete/sealer products used.

@BobbiJo Год назад

I apologize. I did not realize I never went back and put the products in the description. I just added them. Thanks for pointing that out.

@ketoMike Год назад

Well done. My Mother in law had a bird bath that would not hold water. It leaked right out. I tried sealing it and about 6 other things and nothing worked.

@BobbiJo Год назад

I'm glad mine was repairable because it is the birds favorite bath. Thanks for stopping by Mike.

How smooth did it come out ? I used Vinyl Concrete Patcher on mine. It did a GREAT repair job, but the surface is rough. The bowl was originally smooth; the mold makes it that way.

@BobbiJo 12 дней назад

My bird bath doesn't have a smooth finish. You can smooth this out but I wanted mine to have a rough surface.

This may sound like a stupid question, but if the sealant is safe for wildlife will it be safe for dogs? I have a old concrete fountain bowl that sits on the ground i want to seal, and my dogs will want to sit, swim and drink from it!

@BobbiJo 12 дней назад

Not a stupid question. I found the sealant didn't help if I left water in it when the temps dropped below freezing. It cracked again over the winter from the cold temps. It usually doesn't get that cold here so I forget to remove the water. As far as safe for dogs, I would assume yes since it is safe for birds but I'm not 100% sure. Bobbi Jo always liked getting in my concrete birdbath when it was inside the fence. She loves anything with water. She never got sick from playing in it. I moved it outside the fence because she scared the birds away. 😂

I was going to do my mom's old bird bath with flex seal rubber spray-on repair and waterproofer

@BobbiJo Год назад

Let me know how it turns out.

@tennaj1367 Год назад

🤔 make sure that Flex Seal is not leaching chemicals though. Because some of that stuff is not good for animals to drink from

@kenciolek843 Год назад

@@tennaj1367 10-4 , but I doubt if it's worse than the Saginaw River .

@misseldahere 18 дней назад

Thanks for your video it's great! Do I need to apply the tung oil? Or can I just use the waterproof cement alone?

@BobbiJo 18 дней назад

@@misseldahere water proof cement works fine alone. I've got to remember not to leave water in it when we have freezing temps. That's what causes mine to crack. Even with the tung oil it still cracked over the winter. It isn't a big crack but I do need to repair it again before it chips away. This time I'm just using the cement.

@michaelueberroth9553 4 месяца назад

Those Cracks looks like the water froze causing cracks. Mine did the same exact thing in north west Florida.

@BobbiJo 4 месяца назад

Yes, that is what caused it. We had a long cold snap. Thanks for watching.

How many coats of Tung oil did you give the birdbath?

@BobbiJo Месяц назад

@Scoobylife Год назад

Looks great! Luna knocked off our bird bath top 2 years ago and we've been "winging" it - haha - with plant bases inside but not loving the look! How is this holding up? PS I just created a bird bath out of an old iron plant stand and a glass deep platter and put a solar floating fountain in it! Looking forward to your lampshade bird bath video!

@BobbiJo Год назад

I've posted the birdbath made out of a lamp video last month. It has a solar fountain too. This is holding up great. I have a hawk that has shown up a couple of times for a bath. Ill post a short of that this week. We took the video through a window so it isn't the best but it is cool watching the hawk cooling off. How do the birds like the glass platter? Thanks for stopping by.

@Scoobylife Год назад

@@BobbiJo super cool! I’m going to check out the lampshade bird bath next! I left the straw legs on the solar floating fountain so they’re kind of like little perches. Plus, the weather is coming up high enough or they can grab some. I may put glass marbles in it as well, but not sure if I want to clean all that routinely!

@Scoobylife Год назад

Hi! I put a layer of the hydra quickrete in my broken concrete birth bath yesterday! It's still dryiing. I feel like it may be too thin. Should I test it out with water tomorrow to see if I need another layer of concrete before I add the tung oil?

@BobbiJo Год назад

I would test it first. I ended up doing 2 layers in some areas of mine where the crack was deeper.

@Scoobylife Год назад

@@BobbiJo ok thanks!!!

@BobbiJo Год назад

@@Scoobylife you're welcome. I'm no expert. But mine has held up great since I repaired it.

What is a squirrel baffle?

@BobbiJo 4 месяца назад

They are used to block squirrels from getting to bird seed in feeders.
