plywood so am i but we need it anyway yeah bring the plywood the beak and the breaker everything mike's here finally got through the traffic jam was eric there yet he was just pulling in behind me all right but when i got to watertown plank and i was just like stopped i'm like this ain't good yeah no that wasn't good i don't know what these things are made out of cardboard and dust that's what it tastes like [Laughter] eight o'clock in the morning we haven't touched anything yet that's crazy normally we have a lot of work done by eight o'clock already put the forks on that wood and then we'll move that pizza oven up here steps steps all the way up [Music] all of it that's why we got a jackhammer out nah we need the concrete saw this needs to be cut right here right here and then we're taking this out right here and then all this so we're going to put these two by fours on the forks okay and then we can bring the gas line it's propane he's going to make us a pizza he was a chef pizza chef [Music] [Music] hold on to the side so don't get tippy on us how much is it off the ground [Music] does it feel solid yeah [Music] or jackhammer in the back dude do you have a yeah there was glasses somewhere were there you know where they are probably enough job box driver side big truck [Music] [Music] morning bugs we had a really late start this morning god i say you did everybody was late that was amazing yeah well there was a show i know one minute even mike was like 45 minutes late they were all sleeping there was a nine car pile up on the freeway [Applause] and look at the little american flag gives you a little extra power [Music] so [Music] i like how you've been working on this thing out here the whole time we've been breaking concrete out conveniently finished right when we're done yeah right what are you trying to do we need to get this one off and where's the device we got two vice grips see yeah see it's all super strong and you're super not yeah i'm right yeah that one wasn't even tight i could have did that one yeah right bare hands yeah right yeah right tight we could try see if it's pouring out hey after you dump that bring it back over here let's start getting this dirt and work our way out i accepted a friend request from the guy from down south and we're talking about vehicles and stuff if i bring in my el camino can you put a couple shots on of course oh yeah there's another shovel daryl fry either friday or tuesday he's gonna make us pizza in the stone oven we plan on pouring any of this today not today okay all right guys are digging out the sidewalk there that one pretty good i'm gonna start getting materials out for this big set of steps [Music] all right i got this slope somewhat dug out i'm going to start laying it out and see what it says jay just gets to come and relax every single day with us pretty good life you have pretty good life wait of course i do you do yeah all right i'm working on the steps these guys are coming around daryl's loading mike's truck with the concrete from the sidewalks then he's going to start breaking the garage out and try to get this garage out today and uh hopefully get that set up and graded [Music] [Music] [Applause] yeah he should [Applause] what are you doing man all right we just put this 2x12 up it's one of the sides of our steps and i'm laying out the steps on the side i just do it lightly in pencil the first time because your concrete guys know unless you're just a master at steps sometimes you got to make adjustments um and have to draw it out a second time so i always do it really lightly the first time so far it seems to be working out if you've done this and never had to redraw it leave a comment because you are definitely far better than i especially when you're newer at concrete work and setting up steps when i was brand new i had to draw these things out four or five times sometimes before it was right but right now it is working out perfectly all right well that worked out absolutely perfect so there's seven risers they're 28 and 5 8 inch treads and there's just a little bit of pitch coming down the steps so yeah that worked out awesome excuse me how to do steps oh because you want to watch it you can just get a chair and just watch me here all right daryl's been breaking up here [Applause] the sidewalks were super thick with tons of rebar as you can see [Applause] i'm gonna run and get another two by twelve because what i grabbed this morning was too short thankfully the shop is only about five minutes away so it's not a big big deal all right i'm pulling back up on the job i got the uh two by twelve you got jack right here just come right in yeah if you go like this around the corner and break it all the way over there leave the corners in yeah all right see how straight these are brother that looks good you proud yes sir yeah if you were to cut those is this 12 inches never mind no it's nine and a half [Music] i'm going to need you guys over here we got to dig this down this is all this this hump in the middle has got to go down about three inches hey can you guys knock these knock these steps out quick it's got to go down about three inches diggy diggy [Music] i knew i should have charged more than 500 for these steps [Music] so i'm going to put blocking in now like this so then our our face boards our risers will come i don't have something to rest again all right so this will be my first riser just like this like that [Music] got it yep okay all right steps are in place i won't say they're completely set yet i gotta screw them all to height and uh gotta put some gravel in there a whole bunch of pins and kickers but they're looking good you guys almost done are you almost done i broke the door though you better not him all right we're just finishing up the steps guys are going to grab all the sidewalks and then obviously we need to put some gravel in the steps mike's picking up the plywood because

that good i just take pictures oh okay we'll watch all your video on your website of course of course i am you know how famous you're about to be it's not bad it's not that exciting really the only reason we do nice work is because we have a good supervisor is that right yep yep cute as a button too [Music] all right so we got concrete almost finished daryl washed the buggy and then he disappeared he's been gone for at least a half an hour and the max running so i have a feeling he's asleep in there or on the phone i haven't seen him for a long while daryl your stomach doesn't hurt you're sleeping you're sleeping in the truck and we're all working it's not fair come on and do something [Applause] it was kind of funny when daryl jr did it for a little while you know but it's not real funny anymore it's i'm paying darryl good money and all my other guys are working including myself and he's sleeping in the truck he should be glad we're friends i can tell you that all right i

last are you guys done good because we're ready to grade [Music] i'm going in there i'm ready to grade put some pins in the sides let's grade this please oh yes sir yes sir man you're really demanding how did all the gravel get in here yeah just like we great every garage ever in the history of the company there look at how much blade that's half a blade yet no way that's like a cord is that safe no it's not seen it's unseen that is safe he's gonna be the one talking about safety when you've seen him driving that dump truck the other day in the time lapse and he's to he's going to lecture us about safety andrew ryan from victory hey i got at 12 o'clock same place same way eight and three-quarter yards and tito come here so we're going to take a break but after we get this concrete down you guys got to take up all these stones okay put them in a wheelbarrow and then bring them over here i'll show you what they want to keep them okay because we got to put a concrete sidewalk there yeah look at it look at daryl's working hard in here and you guys my heart is worker my heart is worker you're in trouble [Laughter] pull the truck over here i want to load it up let's get some of this asphalt out of here then load it up i want to get something done concrete's not even loaded yet i ain't going to sit around for an hour and a half we gotta dig this out yeah we gotta dig like six inches more okay and then dig it down like about six inches oh six inches all the way around and six inches more down you guys have been the most impressive contractor i've seen in a long time thank you i'll tell you that even him though all of you guys because wow wow they're so good about coming out and just explaining and going over those details yeah stuff with us and nobody else you have to do that honestly because well while you know this well you know this was a ton of money you're not going to spend a ton of money unless you feel comfortable with who's going to do the work for you yeah so and my kid just had like windows put in her house and stuff it's been a nightmare really it's but they had pillow windows put in their house it's been a nightmare that's too bad going on and i think people are pretty understanding up to a point you know well most of the time no not most of the time but a lot of times you hear stories that the contractor just like they get in trouble on their schedule and then they just stop communicating because they're scared or nervous to communicate that's the worst thing you can do because all your stuff's by the road that's crazy isn't that nuts i'm pretty disappointed in the garbage man and i love the garbage man oh hi did you concrete yeah it's right there finally one hour and a half late hour and a half and look at my guys they're not they're not real busy hi joel good where you been telling me the truth were you sleeping were you taking a nap around the corner steve told me that they were really backed up today yeah really backed

time he dumps you got to pull it up stop it hey you got to pull the wire to go to jail how do you say that in spanish tell him pull the wire you're going to go to prison [Music] just just dump it there and scrape it out scrape it over there not there stops up wow easy joe going like this like this you just missed it uh grab one more shoot one more shoot i don't i don't feel like pushing that whole corner you almost smash the garage super close you taking off already from school actually man it must be nice no it's not must be nice yeah right tell me the truth we're all going to leave
