[@jeradclark]

I've done a lot of DIY work, and watch a lot of construction channels. Most of the time I like to think I could do these things on my own and save some money, and have fun doing it. Watching you and your crew work like a well oiled machine and turn out such a great end result makes me realize this is one of those things to let the pros handle.

[@joeynoname7023]

The look, the job, the video, and the Hauser Crew is all Awesome!

[@dandaniels4558]

Tom you and your crews attention to detail is what makes your team so sought after to do so many jobs. You have to be so proud of what you have accomplished over the decades you've done this awesome work. And to find guys with such great work ethics that work so well together and don't seem to miss a beat to where it looks orchestrated says so much for your ability to lead your team. And what I really like is that you jump right in where you might be needed at any point in any process. It's a well oiled machine and that makes for a hell of a business you own. The quality is second to none. It's doesn't surprise me after seeing the jobs yall have done for Mike & mellisa Morgan and all these ones on your channel that your so successful. When your rocking in your old man's rocker chair one day on your porch In your 80's you will have so many wonderful memories from all over your area around Pittsburgh to reminis about and to be so proud of and seeing your son carry on your legacy for many more decades to come. Your a class act sir 👏keep up the wonderful work you do to make people lives easier and cleaner. God bless 🙏

[@mattpastore2177]

100% pure satisfaction, great team,great work,happy customers .

[@piledriver141]

In Texas all this work on new construction is done before structure is built AND I’ve never seen a concrete truck like that.Awesome

[@redyfreddy57]

It’s awesome to see quality work that years down the road your concrete will still be there looking great!

[@febbral]

Tom, you and your crew of guys do excellent work on every job you have posted since first seeing you on OUTDOORS WITH THE MORGANS.

[@jakeschisler7525]

Your running this show, Tom! Great looking work there men!

[@lowmanagain]

I think im going to start doing concrete more often thanks to you. I already have a bobcat t140 and every other tool you can think of including an excavator. Im a licensed builder in michigan. Thanks for all your help. I wAs considering working for a crew for a few months for free. No need for that anymore thanks to you

[@Concretewiththehauses]

I would say go for it take your time do some small jobs and grow from there Keep me posted how it’s going thanks for watching

[@lowmanagain]

@@Concretewiththehauses im getting ready to build a self storage facility right now for myself. I already bought the land and buildings. I have done several driveways already but never took charge. Im going to practice on my storage facility.

Same thing here watching the Morgans. Learning so much.

[@dogpotter]

I live in the Deep South one of the differences I see is what you use for base. Here we are required to use compacted earth usually clay or clay rich soil. You guys use stone. Thanks for sharing your time and knowledge Dean

[@darcywalls1262]

Your attention to detail is amazing guys 👍. Second concrete wood pad, but first one with engineered drawings though lol

[@jmconcretecoloradosprings]

You guys gonna save some concrete for the rest of us? Man you go 110% if mother nature let's you. Great job and great video brother!

As usual,another fantastic job.

Again, great job Tom & crew. Before long you'll be greating all kinds of call to pour firewood pads!!!! Lol I think Mike is wanting to get to using his!!!? Have a great rest of the day.

[@johnspoon923]

Yes, my first view as well. Never thought I’d be this interested in concrete coming from a corporate background🤣

[@scgoralski]

Man, attention to detail! Those cuts look awesome 👍

[@dodgeman658]

Keep the videos coming , another great concrete job! Something tells me your going to get more calls for concrete pads!

[@GRUBB-MUDD]

dude that video was one of my fav of yurs, I love when u explain it all like u do. im not gona lie I've learned a few tricks from u and I've been in the mud 25 years most residential and some commercial. Do u know what a Kentucky tapcon is? I'm sure u do. a double head 16 and a piece of wire in a 1/16 or whatever hole instead of a tapcon

[@Concretewiththehauses]

Yes we do that on our sales I never heard it called that funny thanks for watching got a couple good ones coming up

[@lennydean8099]

great job boys. how long after a concrete pour before you seal

[@appalachiantony7483]

I like to put the 2x4 flat and put a 2x6 on top of the 2x4 which will leave a 2in overhang on the concrete but will give you a flat plate to edge the bottom. you do have to put studs under the plate and brace them but I like how the form can slide off and the nice edge for the bottom.

Looking good out there Tom , no you so much , the concrete lol . Anyhow . the auto glide broom I was talking about previously .....Its not so much the broom , although Marion Brush does make high quality brooms. It is the way the head tilts . You more or less broom with the edges of the bristles and not the tearing action of a straight up broom . Low and slow !

Question: The reason you put cuts in the fresh concrete is to insure that if the concrete cracks it occurs in the cracks out of sight?

[@Concretewiththehauses]

Yes correct

[@buildingstore8714]

[@lawrencepevitts2434]

This question is for Tom, I know you said you've been doing this for 35 years, but how did you get started in concrete? Were you working for someone, and then started your business?

[@Concretewiththehauses]

Thanks for watching I worked for three different people they taught me different things I am actually going to talk about that in one of my upcoming videos Hope you enjoy it

Have you ever used the new fiberglass rebar?

[@GRUBB-MUDD]

water doesn't work fir form release on new lumber. my dad is huge on oil forms. I am too but he is kinda anal about it. what do u use for liner release? bubblegum

[@Concretewiththehauses]

Yes

[@michaelbarrister429]

I'm curious. When he was brooming that porch he was bringing up small chunks that made it look sloppy. Is that something he goes back to when it's dry and scrapes that stuff off?

[@ArnieD17]

Believe what you are referring to he called crumb and said it just gets swept off.

[@Concretewiththehauses]

Some debris falls off the broom from time to time and just lays on top it will sweep right off if you mess with it you make it worse thanks for watching

[@canonicaltom]

It's funny to still see people pulling up the rebar during the pour, even though ACI/CRSI explicitly says to never ever do it.

[@GunpowderandFreedom]

Wire and/or rebar don’t do anything if they are sitting on the ground. Ideally you want them to be in the lower 1/3 of the slab. That’s where we aim to pick it up to. Thanks for watching!

[@canonicaltom]

@@GunpowderandFreedom The point is that it should be elevated already, not set in place when the concrete has already been poured. Same with any kind of anchors. No 'hooking', no wet setting.

[@GunpowderandFreedom]

@@canonicaltom don’t get me wrong, on bigger floors we do use chairs. However, on smaller pours like these, our guys are good enough to get it picked up 👍🏻 everyone does things differently, this way works best for us. Again, thank you for watching!

[@slippyroad3430]

Why do you sometimes do a tool cut and sometimes a saw cut?

[@Concretewiththehauses]

I like getting the crack protection in as early as possible I always worry if it’s going to crack through the night when we come back the next day Thanks for watching

[@slippyroad3430]

So they each do the same job? Then it’s really about when the “cut” is done.

[@Ratheepan1122]

So always you just screed by yourself?

[@moderndimension9632]

Sorry, hooking the rebar grid with a rake to pull it up is just for show. It’s a waist of time. Use chairs or blocks to hold it up. Use a pump, not a wheel barrel.

[@appalachiantony7483]

I'm surprised you didn't remove the weeds from the sub grade.
