mustangstofear 608 Report post Posted December 15, 2020 I was making headway until these clown completed screwed up my concrete. The entire floor will have to be ground down and a self leveling Epoxy on top. Problem is I have to wait 4 months for it to cure for the Epoxy . Never hire a company that isn't bonded, licensed and insured :( 1 Grabber70Mach reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midlife 814 Report post Posted December 16, 2020 OMG! That is an awful lay-down of concrete. When I did my floor, they told me 1 month before I could start the prep for epoxy paint. I did that, and the paint turned out great! Did you manage to bury any bodies or treasure in the concrete? Is that the top of a boot I see sticking out of the concrete?

mustangstofear 608 Report post Posted December 16, 2020 For this guys safety I'm taking the Sheriff with me to his house. Funny thing is I told him the day before that I'm extremely nice guy, but if you screw this up I'll own everything you have. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mustangstofear 608 Report post Posted December 16, 2020 The company that came out that does this kind of repair, said they can sand it down now to help level it, but 1 month per in out concrete to coat it. Plus since it winter now it's to cold. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RPM 1,190 Report post Posted December 16, 2020 Wow. Bad concrete work is heartbreaking. I feel for ya brother. When I saw the pour pics inside a building, with cold temps, I wondered how long they'd have to wait to finish it. I'm guessing they put too much calcium chloride in it.

Ridge Runner 1,112 Report post Posted December 16, 2020 I worked on a job in Bakersfield where they laid down small rock in the concrete about 1 inch in size ,after it cured they went back and cut the top and sealed it and it was beautiful . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mustangstofear 608 Report post Posted December 22, 2020 Talked to a 3rd company today and it's just not worth the time and money to try and grind it. So we'll probably just replace about 75% of the floor. We did turn it over to the Sheriff's Department today, and it looks like this will probably criminal charges rather than civil.

LoneWolf2U 136 Report post Posted December 23, 2020 Hope they have a insurance bond to pay for the repair. Kamala will bail him out cause he is of color. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mustangstofear 608 Report post Posted December 23, 2020 Insurance LOL this guy doesn't have 2 nickels to rub together. Just found out they rip off a local, and all their concrete had to be removed also. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LoneWolf2U 136 Report post Posted December 23, 2020 Maybe you can get them to hammer and remove it chain gang style. Photos you posted had me pondering what were they using to control level and thickness while they were pouring. Also i did not see a rotor float, did they pole float that entire floor? That size refloor will suck time and money. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danno 128 Report post Posted December 23, 2020 I do not see any crack joints in the slab. In Minnesota you need them about every 10 feet. What about pouring a fresh 2 inches on top of this? About 10 years ago I did that with stairs I have and it has worked fine. They also have other plastic materials that will bond to concrete. I have used it to repair sidewalks. Maybe a thick layer of that? I have no idea if it would work on a surface this size. It is truly a shame But the Bronco looks great. What a machine that will be for some lucky person.
