Finally got another guy to look at it this morning. Footers are not square. Step-downs not right. But I know this old country boy and I think he will treat me right. (Here I go again??) I sure hope not. We just talked about it this morning he didn't have time to go over it and do everything he should to see everything that needs done but he claims I got Screwed!! We will see. And pics are coming I think...

This one claimed to work weekends. Weekend gone and he didn't show. I'm off in the morning to one of the large companies that does this stuff. At least I'll get it done.

 

I KNOW PICS!!! Guess thats what caused all my bad luck in this. NO PICS!!!

Good luck Yammer Dan. You have been trying to get this done since June 28,2011 at 6:35 pm. That was your first post. I would love to see you get it before winter sets in. :banana::clap2:

Fuzzy :thumbsup2:

I'm digging the top 5 1/2" off, installing 2 x 6's and pouring without wire.. he said that just holds the pieces of concrete together if it breaks off but if its thick enough to begin with you won't need it...LOL

 

Note: The drive way I have now is about 4" inches thick and is busted to he## and back! :bang head:

Guess that explains why my 24 x 48 garage floor 3-1/2" thick without wire that I paid $2500 for is all busted up, never could find that guy (contractor) again either. Just have to live with it for now, still better than dirt floor.

But that is why you saw stress joints into the floor .....if it cracks, it cracks where the saw kerfs are...nice straight lines and then they don't stand out.

contractors that knowingly rip people off like that, need a pounding... :whistling:

 

 

They sure do!! Did you have the fiber in your concrete? I've already got the wire and am going to add fiber too.
