How to Pour a Concrete Driveway With Brick Bands, Installation Day! Part 3

[@brysont312]

Ive never seen this done before and ive been around concrete the last 15 years.. Super impressive! I appreciate this channel more with every video i watch. Thanks guys

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Great GL

[@fisqual]

I've never seen brick inlays look good in my life until I watched this part 3 right here... I was really skeptical about how it was going to turn out but this is utter perfection!!

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

TY

[@lolMyke]

I’ve never been a fan of the look but I like this job. Your boys did great Dave.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I concur TY

[@danmackneyii4750]

As someone that's done commercial development inspections from the materials side, these guys clearly do top notch residential work. This 3 video series shows a caliber of professionalism to strive towards. Literally everything I saw was amazingly done. The material removal, subgrade earthwork, reinforcement layout, framing/forming, placement, finishing, brickwork... about the only thing you can't confirm is whether the air content of the mix design was on point. Amazing work guys, great job, awesome video!

The combination of the color and architecture of the house with the driveway redo makes for a really elegant looking property. Beautiful job!

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Yes it worked out nicely

[@danielmcgilliss697]

Freaking beautiful work. The attention to detail is beyond reproach. Thanks for the tip. I want to expand the edge of my driveway on each side and this really helps me in my future design and construction

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Great TY GL

[@weneedhopethankyou1513]

I really love watching you do the detailed brick work on some of your pours.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Thank you so much 😀

[@jamram9924]

Good concrete work is....good! Excellent concrete work is defined in the details. This is the epitome of excellence! 👌🏽

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I concur TY

[@brionymangan2528]

I’ve been waiting for the final part on this job! It’s one thing for a job to look good when you leave site, but only someone with experience would know to edge the mortar to concrete joins - and that will ensure it looks good in the future. Great work!

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Your right, TY

[@tinderbox218]

I love the idea of this being a monolithic pour. Because you're right, the brick wouldn't support the weight placed over it as well otherwise. Great foundation engineering.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Your son did a fantastic job. I’m sure he had a good teacher.

Wow??!! That driveway came out really nice!! It was very labor intensive but so so so worth it!! Loved the final product and thoroughly enjoyed the video of the whole process from start to finish. Thanks for sharing!! Your guys did an AWESOME JOB!!! 👍❤️👏☺️

This is Exactly what I've envisioned for my gravel driveway. Think I'd prefer a chipped slate imprint in the cement, or even a bit of grass showing thru. Need extra drainage here, even w/ installed french drain. Permeable skeleton not quite the fix. My city street is Brick so love the look & can curve where I need to. Thx.

[@barrythompson6387]

VERY impressive, as usual. Any reason why one couldn't use full bricks and a deeper inlay/thicker, base concrete placement, instead of cutting them in half? I'm thinking more of a walkway and steps for my application. Many thanks!!!

[@MrIANMORGAN]

Great job lads, I would have put the brick border across the garage door and end of drive as well if it was my property.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Ive seen that and normaly doesnt do well on the transitions

[@Terry-Tibbs]

Best in the West. Love the detail to the grout joint Pure class

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

TY

[@johnallright6847]

Should allways lay the brick next to the hole first dry and then gauge the width of the joints, you can tweak em left or right a little to suite the length of the hole.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I concur

[@hiamtheoneboxing3043]

Did you go back and cut lines into the concrete to prevent cracking? Or does the size of the slabs make that unnecessary

[@mattj5537]

Cleanest job I have ever seen! Great work!!

For your type S,grout do you mix the type S mortar with sand, and if you do what is your ratio of sand to mortar?

What kind of grout are you using for the brick? Good job guys.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Spec mix

[@emailfilter7107]

Is it possible to retrofit a brick inlay with good results? As in, cutting channels into existing concrete pads to install the pavers? Or is this something that needs to be planned when the concrete goes in?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Should be pre planned

[@wolfgangweimer737]

After I had my lumpy asphalt driveway removed and replaced with quality concrete six feet wider on both sides I now have the nicest looking home in my neighborhood.

[@diggingmystyle]

Do you guys do small jobs? I have 2 brick bands that need to be redone.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Sure

[@mwsheds]

Do you guys dowel/pin the driway to the garage slab to tie the two slabs together? How do you feel about that in areas of the country that's prone to frost heav? Thanks for the videos.

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I think in cold climates you need a good deep gravel base

the brick inlay looks really good. Does the inlay act as the control joint?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

A control joint

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Yes

[@opportunist9310]

I've been looking forward to this one! Thank you :)

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

YW

[@bryanspriggs4290]

What do you do for control joints to help control cracking in the slab?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Lots of control joints

[@stevepark3865]

Each recess for the bricks will act as a control joint Under the bricks there will almost certainly be a crack which doesn't matter because it is covered

[@Lucinda2224]

Is this the same process you would use for a front porch? Cement first then brick after?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

Yes

[@mike1968442]

Beautiful driveway to come home to!

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

I concur TY

[@freepress8451]

A good series, with a nice finish. As you mentioned in your commentary - oiled batten would have made it a lot easier to remove and spacing the brick instead of cutting even so, each row matches. Will this need to be sealed?

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

No sealer needed

[@bmlsb]

You taught them well..beautiful job

[@OdellCompleteConcrete]

What would happen if you did the brick work first then lay the concrete?

Some people do it that way, I just think its stronger and better this way.

Looks great. What is the average cost for this project? How come there are multiple color tones on this concrete?

Should have taken the forms out the day of the pour. Well atleast thats what we would do. Its easier and you can reuse the wood. But it looks nice.

To narrow to remove wood without damaging finish
