Building a House Start to Finish: Concrete Pour Timelapse

[@bambino100011]

Who are the 59 trolls that dislike this video?????? I don’t get it. It’s so great to see your home come together.

[@rgoodwinau]

Eric is an absolute machine! Smart, knowledgeable, skillful and incredibly hard working. I'd employ his company in a flash on any job I had.

[@curtissmith9974]

Eric is a hero!!! His knowledge here has been on point from start to finish on this slab. You must feel so lucky to have had him on site throughout the whole process. Having said that, awesome effort by all of you so far. You guys go hard at everything you do and it's an inspiration to all. Keep up the great work!

[@4wheelsonmywagon733]

Wow, Eric really knows his stuff..... in addition he seems like a very cool and likeable guy. Well done Eric!

[@patriciareinbolt3892]

That dude in the yellow shirt is a master of his trade. Hard to find people like him today. Fantastic job. Don

[@gkiferonhs]

The man you had driving your screed board was genuine gold. What a talent!

[@charlie114]

What a blessing Eric and Terri have been for you!!

[@sherrymilhon5377]

On a job that big you really need people that know what they are doing and watching Eric do his thing, he is the man you want in charge. Great video. Stay safe out there.

[@XGNShorty]

never underestimate the power of a true friend . the husband and wife team you had helping you killed it with knowledge and labor.count me as impressed with the work ethic of these two.

[@mackwood2164]

What a production. What professionalism and quality craftsmanship. Concrete guys deserve all the money they charge. It's good to make friends with contractors, electricians, carpenters, floor installers, drywall installers/finishers, painters, plumbers, etc :)

[@joeshaft]

That guy Eric has been a life saver for this project! he really brought his experience and skill to bear on this whole build and it showed. it gave the project a good kick on and he deserves some massive thanks for his help. impressive!

[@rsinfelt1]

I agree!

[@stuartholden2652]

Gotta say Eric was a Godsend for you guys , a true artist and craftsman with concrete.

[@theoldwizard998]

Amen !

[@groundpounder7847]

The man you have helping is a life long friend for sure. He is spot on in his concrete knowledge. Keep people like that close

[@timgovan1]

What a god sent for Eric and Terri, their (his) help really made a HUGE difference. Eric's troweling skills and over knowledge of building is what can give you peace of mind. Thanks for all your great videos.

[@utubenada]

You guys are so, so lucky and fortunate that you had that Eric with you, he is wonderful.

[@phillipbarratt]

Most mornings I wake up and go to the BBC for news but not today - I went straight to see how the pour went as that seemed the most important news I needed! Great video, great people, great pour. Watching from the UK.

[@agould7]

I love how creative you two are with your camera placement. The camera riding the concrete float was so spectacular. It put us right on the concrete with you!

[@speedqueen5964]

How crazy is it that so many people are excited to watch concrete being poured... I mean placed?? This is the one we've been waiting for!! Now we wait for the big beam... Best viewing on the internet!! Congrats!!!

[@919Drones]

You have some amazing help. Especially Erik. He is so calm and skilled.

[@Neenjaboy]

You guys are so lucky to have Eric, Screeding that entire thing with that huge screed by yourself would be a hell of a days work

[@rebeccalavell5770]

This has been my favorite video. I am so glad that Eric & Terry were there to help, but the two of you have been doing a fantastic job. Best way to learn is "Hands on"

[@BarryHull]

Eric and Terry are the best people in the world.

[@samdawson1121]

I was always told that watering your concrete is bad?

[@gromett]

Well done. Looking Great. Eric was an absolute star for you, you were very lucky to have him helping.

[@markparrish6585]

Eric you killed that pour!! Great job!!

[@fredyoung4055]

The pour is over. I feel like I've been there (wish I could have been). Your help crew was outstanding. You were very lucky to have Eric and his wife there. With him being in his element made things much easier. Congratulations. Job very well done.

[@lynhanna917]

What a blessing to have all the help and Eric and Terri's expertise and I liked the camera work - good job Terri.

[@lamontcossey2504]

I am so proud of you guys, you are really getting it done. For two people to have the courage to take on a project of this magnitude with little to no experience and produce such a beautiful finish product is highly commendable, so don't let the detractors and naysayers get to you for one second. You are learning so mistakes are to be expected. I've been in building and construction for 37 years, so I know what you're going through and I'd say, you're doing an awesome job. I can't wait to see your next video.

[@johnshipley6653]

So happy for the successful pour. I don't think people realize the stress that's involved in doing something like this.. So glad it worked out for you.. You had some great help.. Also GREAT job Eric..

[@marklangille3951]

Eric needs his own youtube channel. I'd watch it for sure.

[@scuzzbecuzz]

Congrats ! I really like the man and woman helping you!! They are first class friends

[@charliefoxtrotthe3rd335]

Guys like Eric are invaluable. Hard working and full of knowledge and experience. And he's laid back and easy going. Some guys like that are high strung and bark out orders when they get into their element. Not him. Smooth and sure. All of you did well

[@robertfoedisch9322]

I have watched Eric. He is definitely a very skilled craftsman

[@sintactic]

I love the audio on this one. All the sounds of concrete and rhythmic pumping fit really well. Nice job!

[@frank14725]

No music!

[@annalv605]

Is it odd that I've been looking forward to this video for weeks? Congratulations guys! Loving being along for the journey with you.

[@TheBarnacleBlimp]

Excellent work with the pour guys. I appreciated the zoom work by Terry, It put a different perspective on the work, and the editing really brought that out.

[@lint2023]

Congrats on a tremendous milestone. It thrills me to see it. The couple that assisted you - I admire so much. Their knowledge and their giving was tremendous and they were fun. I can't wait to see more.

[@elliottmanning]

WOW!!! Such a fine looking slab and a really good crew!!! Worth the wait...

[@davido9200]

As I recall you have Jesse's pocketknife sacrificed to the slab pour gods. That is worthy. Two thumbs up! Great work by all.

[@rasmuskurten8455]

Impressive guys! Eric is a champ! So fascinated by your progress. Thank you for keeping up the videos - MUCH appreciated by your viewer here in Finland!

[@BobbyB430]

A big shout out to Eric and Terry! What a great help! Thumbs up!

[@BearCreekWoodworking]

It's always good to have more help than you may really need for concrete work! That way you know you can deal quickly to any problem that may happen. I'm glad your slab went well with no real problems. It's great that you had a talented expert on hand to help you with the prep work and slab pour. Wish they would move near you and be in more of your videos! Great Video! Have a Great Day!!!

[@sixosixo]

Eric was a huge help for part of the House!

[@woxnerw]

This FLOOR is SO Nice.. Everyone involved with this project, Knows It.. From what I see in this video blog, Eric became the Lead Hand.. His experience shows through.. The video work and editing is first class Thanks for showing this, Ladies..

[@skymiller530]

Absolute best chronology on KZbin. First-rate recording. First-rate editing. Outstanding work in documentarianisim. Did I just invent a new word?

[@thameswater2561]

Thanks you two. just love watching, and the way you react with each other, so important. good luck. Regards from the UK.

[@drvbrewer]

Really nice work everyone - Eric clearly has a master's touch working with concrete.

[@biboveralls4025]

Good looking concrete. I'm always amazed at how the pros can work the mud without getting the clothes real nasty and never seem to get sweaty. Part of it is because they rarely lift the mix. Just the occasional half shovel to fill a low spot. While "pour" is the accepted word now when I was young the old timers would jump you if you said it. The proper word was "place." Pour was synonymous with amateurist work. Back then concrete placement and finishing was part of the carpentry trade and the unions were very protective. That started to change after the war. With your concrete placed and finished the next big progress event is when you close in. Your doing great. Keep it up.

[@brettallenthomas]

So relieved the pour is finally over.. The stress of it was really getting to me.. CONGRATS on a job well done..

[@ladygray4]

Wow, that is SO much more work than I'd ever have thought!

[@CynicalDad81]

This is a beautiful slab. Eric is the man of the hour. Good work guys!!!

[@markorris7902]

So glad I stumbled onto you two, I live by myself and I feel like part of a family watching you two. Even like Bagabo and I am allergic to cats LOL. Good work real proud of your work as you should be. 2 thumbs from TN

[@richardmullon5233]

I’ve been watching your little films and glad you’re here and practically finished with floor of the garage. Tied of dirt

[@jwall62]

Finally! You certainly got some hard workers there, great job.

[@jake2213b]

It was great you got PRO to help you. It take a very long time to get that good.

[@johnholden3190]

Great work KIds I'am so Happy to see you get that slab done. Both of you have worked very hard to get this done, and your friends also Great Job.

[@jennywalton3366]

Don't ever feel guilty about accepting help, especially on a project like this. Those guys were ROCKIN'!! I can't believe my cousins and uncles do concrete every day. Just watching this made my back and knees hurt.

[@VenturiLife]

It is back-breaking work, I don't know how they do it. Backs of steel.

[@warrendprice]

I know I had absolutely nothing to do with your pour, but watching you all pour is hugely satisfying! Congratulations!

[@anthonyk1961]

Your friend on the screed board is awesome. Not many can run it by themselves

[@marianneoprisko7737]

You were so lucky to have that much help. Experienced help. Better to be a tiny bit short on your material than have too much and figure out what to do with it. Glad to see you took some advice to make a quick form for xtraa.

[@philipcooper8297]

This is so great to watch, also quite educational. In Europe, we do things quite differently.

[@svar42]

Congratulations you two! Yuge slab and a real milestone in achieving your dreams.

[@satorsatva]

we knew it was done a few weeks ago but we loved the anticipation of completing this pour...proud of you guys...keep up great work...very satisfying to witness...

[@juncusbufonius]

Great camera work, loved the float cam. Bet it feels like you can finally get to building the house. I'm relieved anyway.

[@christianhallin]

Eric is such a champ!

[@brendamargaret4489]

ERIC THE GREAT !!! Eric and Terry are THE BEST!!!....and is it true they donated their time and expertise?

[@davidhutchison3343]

The gentleman in the yellow shirt certainly knew his stuff. Sometimes, it just makes sense to have a professional on hand to give advice. Also, many hands certainly makes for light work. Well done.

[@NZErehwon]

A great Pour by the looks of it Great work Team & Eric & Terry, and the helpers . & Bugaboo

[@lancehenthorn17]

Is it safe to say that adding to the front of the garage is why you ran short on concrete? I must say having Eric and his wife there to help must have been God sent. With Eric's knowledge and skills was a blessing. Looks great!

[@sgtmaj2705]

He didn't drop any ashes on the concrete, thats skill.

[@DONNIEWATKINS]

Friends Rock So Stoked for Both of you And everyone Who Helped YOU ROCK !!~!!~

[@johnvitale8565]

Jesse that turned out to be a great pour, the guy helping you knew his work and did a fantastic job finishing off your slab. You guys are on your way should be under roof before Christmas.

[@lolabunny087]

you guys are doing a great job .... the foundations of your dream home are coming together nicely ..... keep up the great work ... very happy :D

[@POLITICALLYRICH]

*Excited for you guys, ALOT of hard work got you to this point, congrats!*

[@chrisb508]

I'm very excited for you. It seems like I've been waiting for this video for quite some time. I'm glad you got it done.

[@davestrong6472]

Hats off to Eric, a true hardworking American. I wish he worked for me. If you ever come to the SF Ca. Give me a call!

[@VietVet-fh6ti]

I don't believe you all flawed the concrete work w/ childishly putting handprints in the otherwise flawless work.

[@darrenharlow3016]

that eric guy is a machine.what a good guy

[@garymartin8451]

Eric was/is the most valuable asset you've utilized to date. You really owe him big time..

[@PhotonHerald]

It's the apron. They probably underestimated it because of the last minute nature of the apron. B Kishan, No need to vibrate the slab. The simple act of people walking through, screeding, etc settles it. And Alyssa, it may FEEL like you didn't do a lot. You DID. You guys got an absolute *BLEEP!*ton of work done for such a small crew. Both individually, and on the whole. Don't stress over it. It's ALL learning, including how to accept help when it's available...

[@jeffpittock2785]

Major milestone completed, many more to come, keep the faith, great job guys

[@TearsofaSoldier]

Excellent video! Was impatiently waiting for this one. Why anyone would give this video (or any of your other videos) a thumbs down is beyond me.

[@gregglinville9542]

I have enjoyed all of your video's. I am starting on my venture to get out of California and move to my forest in Ohio. I just returned back to California from my Forest. I had to cut down 21 tress just to have a place for my shop. The work has started. Looking forward to following you guys, I might post some videos later on. Take Care, Yogi

[@lianhua7064]

Nice teamwork. Eric is superb.

[@HabitualButtonPusher]

You guys have some awesome friends. You should talk Eric & Terry into being neighbors!

[@49richard]

Amazing job! Everybody seems so efficient! I was waiting for that day...

[@douglasolsen1208]

Fun pour. Good help. Terry did well capturing video!

[@justalilrusty2825]

Wow honestly the more I watch the more amazing you guys get this is super awesome. I can only hope but to copy what you guys do.

[@tonymccreath5199]

Finally , I was really looking forward to this one! Good job!

[@chipbhi]

Fantastic, you guys. You must be so thrilled to have such great progress.

[@peterp4319]

I don't even know you, I've never you, and you probably won't even read this ... but I feel this is probably the best video you made to date. It shows the culmination of such hard work, day after day in the sun, figuring it out. so awesome, so incredible. I feel happy for you. Good job. Your house is going to be awesome, and the memories so incredible. ps Eric is awesome too!

[@cameroncampbell7503]

Eric and his girl rock - fabulous pair to help here - worth their weight in gold

[@johngordon9889]

Nice work John. Really interesting features on the wood. I can see why you chose to do this project.

[@76Richie19]

Eric is the mvp workout a doubt!

[@toddburnside6772]

Great Job! I stayed up late hoping you would post this! Your prep work made this pour look easy but I'm sure it was a tough day! keep it up!

[@2planker331]

Really liked the shot from the float mounted camera

[@SerHuntsReviews]

been waiting on this one

[@harold5594]

GREAT GREAT JOB to you two and your valued friends. Well done

[@cathyoakes5533]

Great vlogs guys, thank you for taking the time to share the memories your making. Very selfless people. I for 1 thank you.

[@KenColangelo]

Best video yet! Great job and concretulations (again)!

[@puppiesinlove]

you can really tell how long eric has been doing concrete for job well done

[@hoss4557]

Tis awesome to have friends/co-workers/extra hands to help in this project. If it were me I'd have to pay dearly for the help. I never did have friends to go out of their way to help Ol Hoss. The ones I do have would say they would help, they would arrive late I can bet on that. Dad said long ago "The mark of a true friend is the one that answers the phone at 3:00 AM. All you say is "I can't sleep...." That friend will arrive a short time later. You have to do the same to him or her. "Yeeha!"

[@mrbakerskatz]

I could listen to Terry's laugh for eternity !
