CONCRETE STEPS REPAIR (Part 11) Mike Haduck

well today what I did was we brightened up to set of step units where they come and they put it in with the crane and after years and our winter as it gets beat up so he just kind of patched it up with cement and brightened it up with some paint and I'm gonna show you how he did it this is one of these set of steps and they got holes in them looks like a piece of plastic is in there and then oh this is coming apart these are one of these step units things so anytime here's a hole here get one of these step unit things the only thing you've gotta do is just kind of freshen it up right mer right and we're not gonna spend no money on this right because you were no girlfriend and there you go [Music] [Music] faceting I mean you can do it regular regular submit we're gonna use the faster you follow me kind of pre-wedding it that's what I'm free wedding yeah that's sinking a little bit you when they wet it again it won't be sucking let this stuff out of the concrete so much so just give it an initial wedding and then I'll know as they go I don't want to soak it with the hose right because to be too wet yeah especially at the end of it yeah then it won't take right yeah you just get a feel for this while we're using this cement I'll rapidset this is the one that doesn't have the sand in it as you can see we can all over the place see words we can only gonna mix a little bit at a time just what we're gonna need no we're just gonna mix up what we need then we're gonna use in five minutes just faster you could use traditional cement Portland sand if you wanna let this stuff dry so fast I'm a happy camper a bit I'm using the first up we wet at once just wetting it again to make sure I got everything that's all it's gotta be wet just put it in around thank you fill all those holes in you know the holes 51 gonna cover the holes paint it move to the next step same thing make sure it's wet enough down here drift a little bit make sure it's wet gotta be wet [Applause] he said go over to go later if you want now I'll be working so hard we mixes you get your sponge your bad spots you want to go over it again go over it again gonna patch up under here small pieces like that see there's to get them over set up know where they go they feel like hell even Italy like that for the bottom here I made my own concoction what was that like well I used a couple sand a couple Portland well two parts and two parts Portland and they true and some of that will you call it and with this all up make it stick like that see it's getting hard already the old concoction shove it in there shove it in there goes in there my own concoction go up with it just like that yeah didn't want to leave that hole in there like that over here in there these pieces are just just jamming it up in there so it's easier for it to spin why don't even like different types of in here [Music] we're not gonna paint this for a couple days yet okay wet it up pretty good you get some Rapids entrance just go over to bad spots what's dad miss dead quad make a look a hole up here gotta go around and see if we missed anything well it's all dry in and the Sun is tough but it's looking good we're gonna wait a few days and then we're gonna paint it now we're back about a week and a half later because you have to let this submit kind of settle out I'm just gonna paint it I'm gonna make a big deal out of it all this is a covering to keep this from getting worse Cement hourly isn't that good Alicia paint over the top of it it's okay if you're doing something thick but when you're doing something thin like steps are that it's best to paint over it to keep the water from penetrating so that's it we're all done how does it look I hope you didn't miss any spots Mike that's typical so this girl went out with what 25 years ago yeah Wow 20 years and she inspired me to write that big song that made me a star throughout the world alright we're done thank you Mike there's not a lot to say about that job I had was a sponge floaties or soft ones just what they're like when they get harder when they get a little harder I use them on the cement all because the cement thought wears them away but if I have an affiliate site it'll be me little none description box had some extra cement tile had some extra paint it took me an hour to scrape it and put the cement tile on then it took me I had to go back ten days later and just paint it so around these parts it's always snowing there throwing salt on it or hitting with ice picks tore hitting with snow shovels it's good for a year two years do it again who cares instead of buying new steps just keep patching them up well that was the old girlfriend who inspired me to write the hit sign I'm so miserable without you it's almost like having you around and Here I am over in Europe on television singing the song which was quite an experience so I'll leave the link to that too if you think it's funny enough thanks for watching I'm Mike addict until next video [Music] you
