FOUNDATION REPAIR (Part 15) Mike Haduck

[@Constitutionalapologist]

With all the junk going on in the world, it's nice to watch a relaxing Mike Haduck Masonry video:) hit the spot.

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks Joni, mike

[@danielsaleman506]

Well Mike will just take all the junk going on in the world and use it to fill in the holes in a foundation

[@Kathleen253]

Got that right 👍

[@HotRodCVO]

I seriously can’t watch this. I would never buy a house I know this guy did masonry work on. All he does is cover shit up, it may look ok but it’s all going to fall out as soon as he’s down the street.

[@arnoldolorenzo3474]

@Rodney, Not necessarily. Mike is a veteran and he knows what he’s doing. If something isn’t falling apart, why redo the whole foundation? Some thins can be patched and last for another 10-15 years. Plus he’s saving homeowners a lot of money by showing them how the work is done. Trust me, most “professionals” from Angies etc will do almost the exact same thing but charge you way more.

[@KurtG85]

What I love about mike is that he doesn’t make a big deal out of it.

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks Kurt, Mike

[@donotdrinkkoolaid8115]

I am a 64 year-old lady with cinder block foundation on my porch steps. They need sealer or something since winter is coming. So, I started watching your videos and find them fascinating. I watch from start to finish. I am going to give the cement a try because there are a lot of places where it just got filled in with mortar or something and it's crumbling. You are an inspiration. Thank you for your videos. I enjoy them very much.

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks donot,, Mike

[@bennevis6843]

Love watching mike he’s my old school guy, everyone’s wise old grandfather

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks Ben, mike

[@ncironhorse8367]

Mike is like the Bob Ross of masonry. Been loving these videos.

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks, Mike

[@BillLowenburg]

I think this was one of your best videos for demonstrating the concept of "patch job" to the max, Mike. It was kind of a "greatest hits" album of techniques, from "ya gotta wet it," to "if it ain't loose, we're gonna leave it," to painting with Portland and "no big deal." All that was missing was the trusty axe - although that foundation looked so far gone that hitting it with the axe might have brought the whole house down. I'm sure the owner was very happy with the Combat Finish. Thanks again for sharing your experience.

[@MikeHaduck]

Tha is Bill, I appreciate it, Mike

[@wecomeinpeace5082]

And who can forget such classics as "We're not gonna win any trophy's"

[@abuzz5395]

Been doing a lot of patch work myself lately. When I don’t want to get going I just watch one of your videos. Your a great motivator. Many thanks 🙏🏼

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks Buzz, Mike

[@thomasmorrison3279]

He says "I'm not gonna make a big deal out of it" as half of the wall gets chipped away and there is vertical crack the height of my daughter in the wall. Holy cow that wall is in bad shape. Mike is awesome. I love his step by step explanation of how to repair masonry. Still trying to figure out why he did not cut along the mortar joint for some of the cinder blocks and just replace them. I know you can't do it for all of them, but some could be completely replaced.

[@MikeHaduck]

Hi Thomas, it's not worth the time, best to just go over the whole thing with the stucco, its faster and cheaper, thanks Mike

[@illestofdemall13]

@@MikeHaduck Yeah, if they want to see pretty perfect blocks then they would need you to build a new block wall from scratch. The way you did it was practical and they didn't need to sell one of their kidneys to pay for the repair. Lol

[@Kathleen253]

@@illestofdemall13 ain't that the truth. Good for Mike

My house was built in 1956, it has boring cinder block exterior mostly, this swedish combat stucco finish would probably make the place look more modern if I ever get time to do it.

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks, mike

[@MichaelBlast]

Mike Haduck is the kinda Boss you'd be glad to work for to learn all the knowledge and wisdom Mike has to teach. I have to rewatch this video and take notes as I'm planning on repairing the appearance of a old 1950's block home. One question I see is how far below the ground level should we plaster to help prevent water ? The combat finish would make this block home look a bit more modern and fancy. Thanks for all you do Mike. Here in Florida.

[@MikeHaduck]

Hi Michael, I don't think there is many basements in Florida, but it all depends on if you are getting water in the basement or not, if not I just go down about 5 inches and make sure the raingutters are good and land is pitched away from the house, thanks Mike

[@arnoldolorenzo3474]

I love the way you show good old American ingenuity, how the old timers did it, where the materials come from and how we should strive to be resourceful with our techniques and materials not perfect (as there’s no such thing). As always, it’s a pleasure to watch you work and teach.

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks , mike

[@ChristopherJones16]

You can tell a true mason by their technique and confidence. True masons will always know the tricks and tips on how to do these things. If you watch other mason videos you'll find guys in the 20s-40s trying to act like they know what theyre doing and you can tell right away by their technique, the material they use, and how they mix it that they dont know much about masonry. Glad I found your channel. Btw I'm from Scranton, PA. I thought I recognized your accent, and as soon as you started talking about rocks and coal I was certain you were a NEPA guy.

Mike I built a lot of things with my hands. Consider myself a fairly decent fabricator. Masonry work to me is extremely difficult. You make it look easy.

Great Video Mike I Like How The finishing work turned out: Your Videos Always Take Me Back to The 70s When I Was Doing Concrete Work For An Old Timer , Whom I Started Working For Free To Get My Feet In The Door.

Mr. Haduck, after watching some of your videos, This 66 year old set out to repair a shed slab that I had poured last year. Although the footprint was not large, the shed was relatively tall. I was concerned that leaching aggregate from around the shed's perimeter could eventually undermine one of its supports. Armed with your experience, I completed the repair in approximately 5 hours. As a result, I am confident in the fix and elated at the results. I know that you have done some great videos from your worldly travels. How about a trip to NASA to find out how they will eventually form masonry structures on the Moon or Mars. Thank you and may God Bless you and your family.

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks M, God bless, Mike

[@terryhoffman2760]

Today I poured a step. Followed what Mike has shown in his videos. Took me a while concrete landing had sunk 2 and 1/2 inches on one side . Tried to raise it up but impossible . The step up on one side was 12 inches. But Mike says no big deal its concrete. So I split the difference. Now the step up the rise is 5 1/2 on one side and 6 inches bnb on the other . The step is 12 inches. Now I see why he has the pointed trowel in his hand all the time it does magic. You can tell I am a rookie but Mike gave me the courage to at least try. At 74 I should be relaxing but it's not my style. Thanks Mike , I had a screw up. I waited a little too long to round the edge of the step. But still got it done by muscling the concrete edge . We shall see tomorrow. No big deal I will fix it somehow.

So, Mike. In the beginning of the video you showed the crumbling block wall of a porch/deck patio, what do those broken and cracked blocks say about the strength and integrity of that structure.

After you finished filling the holes in the cinder block stair section, you plastered over that entire section of cinder blocks to make a scratch coat. Did you use the same mix that you used as mortar to do the repairs of the holes: 2 buckets sand + 1/2 bucket S Mortar + 1/2 bucket portland to plaster the scratch coat on the cinder block stairs? [You said you were going to get some "cement" to put a scratch coat on, but didn't say what kind of cement.]

Also, after you painted the mine rock wall with Portland + water paint, you covered the mine rock wall with "stiffer cement". Was the stiffer cement made from Portland paint with less water to make it stiffer, OR was it the 2 parts sand + 1/2 part S mortar + 1/2 part Portland mix? Also, you came back after 9 days and added a 2nd coat of "cement." Was it the 2 parts sand + 1/2 part S mortar + 1/2 part Portland mix, OR something else? I could easily mess this up.

[@MikeHaduck]

It was all 2 parts sand and 1/2 part s mortar and 1/2 part portland, thanks Mike
