Was a root barrier put down near the 🌲 so the roots don't cause problems in the future?

Years and years ago, I was involved in forming and rebar for a huge driveway (like, 30 feet wide, and 75 feet long) for a fella, who had his "Engineer Friend" work out what we needed to do. We ended up with #4 rebar spaced every 12 inches in the thing, with 6 inches of thickness, and a 12 inch thick footer around the edge, with its own rebar in it. A guy from the county happens to drive by and stops to look at it, asks why we put so much rebar. We tell him because the owner said so. county guy says if you could find a big enough crane, you could lift the entire driveway as a single slab if you wanted to with that much steel in it. Always wondered about that. watching your videos on driveways, and what you did here for parking an RV on it, I'm inclined to say he only exaggerated a little bit.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

He may be right with enough pick points

[@tonyjustice7924]

Hey David I done concrete for about 25 years I always had to put the radius form in first I see you put the stakes first do you have a video on doing that I still do some concrete every now and then

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

No but on radius its easier to put stakes first

[@joniguzman7217]

Nice job like always

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

[@alextremonti6430]

love the videos! making the guys dig? no more front end loader?

[@irgski]

3” main break! Love to see that. Go back and puncture it again with the camera rolling!!!

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Maybe

[@1sttigertiger426]

Regarding the mo (sic) strip, which will be reddened, how did you ensure that the soil is compacted?

[@wkdravenna]

What brand of partner saw do you like / use ?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I dont use Partner. I have in the past maybe 20 years ago and had a lot of trouble starting it. Now I use Stihl The old style two stroke. My Stihl authorized mechanic said don't get rid of this one the new ones are in the shop a lot more often

[@aaronstone5899]

You aught to figure out a way to get a mini skidsteer they are incredible, I'd pay for its self in time savings so quick. They fit through almost any gate so you can get them in nearly any backyard.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

The problem with those mini skidsteers, unstable prone to fall over, the bucket is about the same size as a wheelbarrow. Has to be something better

[@jasong5163]

David check out the new Toro 1000. Bucks are about 3 times the size. There is also a 2000 series with telescoping arms for easy truck loading.

[@hammertime7349]

Great video👍. Just have one question. How come u didn’t use stone under ur concrete.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Southern CA. No rain NO freeze and its beach weather everyday

[@arivdarmawanarivariv2789]

May i'm work there

[@adolfoortiz5692]

Any chance you have the name of the pickaxe you use? The one with yellow plastic handle

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I wish, They don't make them like that anymore.

[@adolfoortiz5692]

Odell Complete Concrete agreed. I have one because my dad works for a precast company and he brought one home maybe 10 years ago. Now that I started my landscaping business, that’s my go to pick

[@whuzzzup]

Are there any regulations (in the US/state/county/whatever) that only x% of your land is allowed to be sealed (because of water seepage)? All this big concrete stuff is basically unknown here in europe/germany.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

yes and its around 20 %

[@jelawnlandscapingllc2737]

Do you have to have permanent to do the job

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Yes

[@NoWheelDrive]

Can't wait for the next video regarding this driveway! BTW I got few questions - what are your rules/guidelines regarding putting a metal mesh? Like amount of wires, amount of dobies etc? :)

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

No rules on residential flat work. I just do what works.

[@MC2RD]

Is that young John Connor's house from T2? looks like it.

[@RandomPerson-sb5mw]

In our area we call digsafe. they come mark all the gas water and power lines.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Its called dig alert here

[@DanielM-sd9jg]

Aren't dobbys just for foundations?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

NO, There for anything where you want to support something

[@bobbrown1603]

David, for the record, its "mow" strip, as in mow the lawn.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Bingo TY

[@pacemetalfab]

Why pump when a chute would work?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Because I would have had to back the truck over the sidewalk over the driveway. Possibly break the sidewalk and the driveway and the water main so shallow under the driveway

[@ScottishNSRailFan]

Great viewing

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

ty

[@thomasallison7888]

Pls do more sidewalks

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

All the time

[@thomasallison7888]

So the next video is this job cite?

[@alokrout3900]

What is the rod diameter??

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

3/8"

[@DC-nz2ts]

Why don't you add road base?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

That would make the concrete thinner

[@Mjc103]

Why not run a skid steer on this job? Seems like it would be much quicker.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Yes it would have. I just bought one

[@drumtwo4seven]

Cool! Comment #2 Thumbs up #20

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

TY

[@bighorn9119]

Odell if your sick a great concrete guy how come you dont serve the los Angeles county

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

to far unless its a good sized job

[@stevehansen5389]

A strip of red on the right side property line would keep the owner and his neighbor from encroaching on each other.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

you will see that in part 3

[@AA-md6ww]

ممتاز جيد جدا

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

oss

[@loveshy007]

Final Step: Take all the DIRT that has zero load bearing and remove. Replace it with perfect soil and lots of foliage..

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

For dure

[@megadair5741]

Looks like the neighbor's recently had their driveway done aswell

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I think its 20 years old

[@140ex5]

Maybe call 811 for utility location?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

this makes a better video

[@saulgoodman2018]

So you just capped the neighbor sprinklers. If that was me, Ill demand that you uncap them. It doesn't look like they were help with anything. But still.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I think the yard needs a complete renovation

[@yoyoyoda1783]

buy a mini plez...it will pay for itself the first year...smh

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

good idea

[@joelkrause8694]

Capped the neighbors sprinklers, seriously, not good for you

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

yes it was great because now they don't have to water other peoples property.

[@ADOTlied]

My only thought is how and why anyone would improve any property in California with the direction of the leftists that govern the state? I guess people really love the place in spite of it's headlong run to bankruptcy and social chaos. I can't be that crazy because their all moving into my city here in PHX!

[@lucabrazi36]

Both of you hit the road watch another channel. This is about concrete not politics.
