Fixed it for ya.

Yep. Wide dam awake at 3:00am. Read GJ to fall back asleep. Nope. Now have placed a tool order!!!!

Thanks for giving us a complete explanation Collin. Most appreciated (and almost always overlooked by businesses). I'm a long time fan of KC Tool and will continue to be. Thanks again. McGov.

Expect another one of these notices, oh, around August/September. We got a looooooooooooooooooooooooooooong way to go.

Along with other deeper motives. FIVE YEAR payment terms for your one day bath remodel. Why? Upon non-compliance with the terms of the payment contract they lien the property (your home/house). This can then force a sale. It's a real estate play in the deepest of its motives. Be very careful.

Yep. Here in the South, in the last 4 years, commercial structural concrete (think multi story buildings) has about doubled in quoted pricing.

If you'd been on GJ for several years prior to your joining date then you'd know that your experience is, by and large, the new normal across America. But first. Where are you at on money? How much have you paid the "builder?" Then need to know if the trade contractors (subs) have been paid...

I've used chrome sockets and extensions on 1/2" impact guns since 1995. Never broke or wallowed out anything. But now I find I've been wrong for 27 years. Where do I go to repent? And to whom do i pay the fine?

Another vote for Timberland Pro. 7+ years and still very happy with the myriad of models that I have.

Holy ****. That is one of THEE nicest "I don't really know what I'm doing" slab preps I've ever seen here on GJ. Very well done. Proper prep is everything for concrete. You've done very well.

No. I haven't tried QUINN. But if you rearrange the letters it spells VESSEL. Just sayin'........

He's likely got a trowel finish and is just "opening up" the surface of the concrete to provide an appropriate surface for proper adhesion. Some prefer to do a light sandblast like surface preparation. The polyurea manufacturer will tell you how to properly prepare the surface. Or describe a...

Before you go much further you need to determine how you're going to set the grades (finished floor elevation for the shop, the house) to properly manage rain water.

All of this^^^. And to be able to determine the optimum density and moisture content they WILL HAVE TO get a sample of the dirt/fill material and test & analyze it in the laboratory.

If you pump you need to have a competent person running the business side of the pump hose. Also know that any pump will need to have water and a place to wash all of that pump piping/hosing when work is complete. They're gonna need to do that on your property. Ready mix concrete (truck batch...

Mmmmm. I think your PPG rep needs to stick to just coatings. He's clearly not an authority on concrete.

If it has **** or tires it's gonna give you problems.

The Costco (Kirkland brand) are 16" x 16" (36 each). I got a bag of them a month or so ago for $17.99. So their pending discount price is a great deal. I would not characterize them as "thin." At least compared to the **** my wife has bought over the years.

I've been in the commercial building contracting business for 37 years. There is so much misunderstanding and misdirection in this thread it will never ever ever ever be straight.

The whole process is regimented but yet imperfect. When you don't possess good domain knowledge it becomes frustrating. Kindness, consideration and PATIENCE will serve you well.
