You taught me well, Mike. I repaired the corner cinder block of my house that was totally decayed, I fixed it with some pieces of natural rock and I hoped for the best about three years ago. I basically did the repair on the corner the same way you did it. Since I put a bonding agent of Portland on everything I do I figure I can't go wrong. Turns out the corner is the nicest part of the house. Thanks for everything Mike. You saved me thousands of dollars since I started watching your videos.
Thanks Dolores, that's a good thing, mike
Thank you thank you thank you!! You’re videos are fantastic!
With all the junk going on in the world, it's nice to watch a relaxing Mike Haduck Masonry video:) hit the spot.
Thanks Joni, mike
Well Mike will just take all the junk going on in the world and use it to fill in the holes in a foundation
We're not going to make a big deal out of it!
Got that right 👍
I seriously can’t watch this. I would never buy a house I know this guy did masonry work on. All he does is cover shit up, it may look ok but it’s all going to fall out as soon as he’s down the street.
Love watching mike he’s my old school guy, everyone’s wise old grandfather
Thanks Ben, mike
You’re always there when I need some help/pointers/ideas!!
Thanks RD, Mike
I think this was one of your best videos for demonstrating the concept of "patch job" to the max, Mike. It was kind of a "greatest hits" album of techniques, from "ya gotta wet it," to "if it ain't loose, we're gonna leave it," to painting with Portland and "no big deal." All that was missing was the trusty axe - although that foundation looked so far gone that hitting it with the axe might have brought the whole house down. I'm sure the owner was very happy with the Combat Finish. Thanks again for sharing your experience.
Tha is Bill, I appreciate it, Mike
And who can forget such classics as "We're not gonna win any trophy's"
Been doing a lot of patch work myself lately. When I don’t want to get going I just watch one of your videos. Your a great motivator. Many thanks 🙏🏼
Thanks Buzz, Mike
He says "I'm not gonna make a big deal out of it" as half of the wall gets chipped away and there is vertical crack the height of my daughter in the wall. Holy cow that wall is in bad shape. Mike is awesome. I love his step by step explanation of how to repair masonry. Still trying to figure out why he did not cut along the mortar joint for some of the cinder blocks and just replace them. I know you can't do it for all of them, but some could be completely replaced.
Hi Thomas, it's not worth the time, best to just go over the whole thing with the stucco, its faster and cheaper, thanks Mike
@@MikeHaduck Yeah, if they want to see pretty perfect blocks then they would need you to build a new block wall from scratch. The way you did it was practical and they didn't need to sell one of their kidneys to pay for the repair. Lol
@@illestofdemall13 ain't that the truth. Good for Mike
Incredible work as always Mike. You make it look so simple. Just another Artist with a trowel and a brush. Just Masonry style. ❤️ It looks absolutely beautiful ❤️ I love the Swedish finish
Thanks Belle, mike
Mike is the man!! “Not going to make a big deal of it though”..... he helps us out so much!! Appreciate you Mike
Thanks Jerry, Mike
It's great to watch a second generation 'old school' mason, A true craftsman for sure. Thank you for posting so many informative and entertaining videos. Your not 'Making a big deal out of it' or 'Winning any trophy's'' but i can't begin to tell you how much I enjoy watching your videos...
Thanks Ed, I appreciate it, mike
I’ve commented on your videos before, just wanted to reiterate how immensely helpful and informative they’ve been. Thank you again for being so generous with your knowledge
Thanks Ben, I appreciate it, Mike
Mike is like the Bob Ross of masonry. Been loving these videos.
Thanks, Mike
Great video mike as always I’m not a mason by far but your videos help me on my 120 year old home keep the videos coming thanks again
Thanks, mike
There are the youtube videos that we need! This is where we learn something in life that is useful not something that is a waste of time.
Thank you for being informative and direct. I’d love to spend a day working with you!
Thanks Corey, Mike
Talk about "silk purse out of a sows ear",wow.
Thanks Henry, mike
And he said it was no big deal
Mike, thank you for all your masonry videos. By following you I have become much more comfortable and proficient working with cement! I installed all new basement windows using your methods myself and saved hundreds! So thank you!!!
Thank you Thomas, mike
Hi Mike - thanks from the UK for your content. It's really informative/useful but also very satisfying to watch. Take care, Ben
Thanks Ben, Mike
Mike, thank you for your amazing videos. I've been a mason for over 20 years in Florida, and I learned something new from every video.
Thanks Jessie, I appreciate hearing that from a professional, Mike
Combat finish , I really like that one. I'll never forget that.
Thanks Timothy, mike
Basic (down to the "root cause" level) information and intelligence, and applicability. Learning a lot. Thank you, Mike.
Thanks, Mike
Mike, your videos have helped me very much. Living in upstate NY the weather is similar to yours. I did my foundation over last summer and because of you I have gotten many comments. THANK YOU!
Thanks Mark, I appreciate hearing that mike
I was born in Syracuse. Very harsh winters there.
My husband watches you all the time. He has learned so much from your techniques. Keep up the good work
Thanks Samantha, Mike
I love the way you show good old American ingenuity, how the old timers did it, where the materials come from and how we should strive to be resourceful with our techniques and materials not perfect (as there’s no such thing). As always, it’s a pleasure to watch you work and teach.
Thanks Arnold, Mike
My house was built in 1956, it has boring cinder block exterior mostly, this swedish combat stucco finish would probably make the place look more modern if I ever get time to do it.
Thanks Samuel, Mike
Thanks for turning masonry into something we can all do and understand. These foundation videos really bailed me out. Thanks Mike!
Thanks Lon, Mike
I really like your down to earth attitude. Thank you for posting this video!

Thanks Mike!! Really enjoyed watching you work. I learned a lot.
Thanks, Mike
Just wanna say this is so cool I’m a level 2 apprentice working towards red seal and sometimes there isn’t time for demonstrations so i find it very helpful that you provide us with videos just like this!
Thanks Jacob, Mike
Thank you so much for your training videos. I am going to patch my driveway and I want to thank you for your training.
Thanks Sheila, Mike
Great video. Thanks for posting it.

I love these videos,Im redoing my stone basement,learned how to by watching Mike's videos,thx for teaching me😀❤️
Thanks Charlie, Mike
@@MikeHaduck ur very welcome sir
Mike I built a lot of things with my hands. Consider myself a fairly decent fabricator. Masonry work to me is extremely difficult. You make it look easy. I know it takes an enormous amount of practice to be good at it. I enjoy watching your videos and I've learned a lot from you so thank you very much. Happy Thanksgiving Mike!
Thanks Dave Happy Thanksgiving also, mike
Couldn't find anything like this on the internet. I have cinderblock porch were some blocks have eroded away. Thank you so much Mike, I feel confident to tackle this project on my own now.
Thanks, Mike
No time wasted. Love it.
Thanks duo, Mike

Thanks Rocco, Mike
As always GREAT. Thanks Mike
Thanks frank, mike
There's plenty of Sins on that job 😎. Excellent video as always 🙏. God bless 🙏
Thanks again, Mike
Always wondered how this finish was done, it’s the stucco finish on my 1927 house. The combat finish and now I know, thanks for posting!
Thanks, mike
always superb videos and I know it's a lot of extra work on top of doing the actual work ... me and my 6 year old son enjoy them and he wants a tshirt ... he's too small yet .... THANKS MIKE!
Thanks Thor, mike
That looks fantastic!
Thanks Mark, Mike
I'm going to have to watch this twice thanks for posting

Hey Mike,
First, a late Happy Easter greetings to you and your loved ones. May God bless you always.
Thanks for all you do. I have learned so much.
Thanks Mike, God bless also, mike
You’re a legend Mike!
Thanks Zach, Mike
Great Video Mike I Like How The finishing work turned out: Your Videos Always Take Me Back to The 70s When I Was Doing Concrete Work For An Old Timer , Whom I Started Working For Free To Get My Feet In The Door. He Would Buy Me A 7 Eleven Big Gulp & A Bag Of Work Horse Chewing Tobacco On The Way To The Job, And I Was Happy As A Lark All Day Long.
Thanks Bill, good story, I hear a lot of that, the old timers are disappearing, I miss them, Mike
This video taught me finally i understand why different types of stone foundation exist in different areas. Up here in central CT we have ledge and lots of rocks in our soil that are round and about a foot round. Makes sense why my foundation is bigger rocks. Thanks for that snippet of thw mountain i enjoyed that
Thanks Jeremy, Mike
I am very pleased how well it came out!!!
Thanks, mike
Where I live all companies would have only given the option for piers..anytime there is a crack they say foundation repair even when your foundation is leveled. When there are ways like you show that can fix it. I wish there was a you in every city across America.
Thanks ,I appreciate the kind words, Mike
Great video, a lot of great information that you wouldn't easily find unless you've worked in the industry.
Thanks Rich, Mike
WOW!!! That’s an awesome job!!!
Thanks Richard, mike
I learn how to plaster part of my basement floor by watching Mike. Thanks Mike u the man.
Thanks Nancy, Mike
Good job Mike!
Thanks again, Mike
Made my day! Thanks Mike.
Thanks James, Mike
Love learning from the old timers, no over complications at all. Love the bonding tip using Portland cement. Now they sell specific bonding agents just for you to have something extra to spend
Thanks, Mike
I love your videos and know of your area well as I grew up above Carbondale. I currently have a house in Bethlehem which is need of some masonry work in Basement Your knowledge is really helpful.
Thanks Pete, Mike
Very helpful and informative. Thank you.
Thanks, mike
Mike, you make it look so easy..awesome video.
Thanks Sergio, mike
Turned out so good!
Thanks Mike
Mike Haduck is the kinda Boss you'd be glad to work for to learn all the knowledge and wisdom Mike has to teach. I have to rewatch this video and take notes as I'm planning on repairing the appearance of a old 1950's block home. One question I see is how far below the ground level should we plaster
to help prevent water ? The combat finish would make this block home look a bit more modern and fancy. Thanks for all you do Mike. Here in Florida.
Hi Michael, I don't think there is many basements in Florida, but it all depends on if you are getting water in the basement or not, if not I just go down about 5 inches and make sure the raingutters are good and land is pitched away from the house, thanks Mike
fantastic explanation great video thanks Mike👍👍👍

I never knew masonry was such an art. You’re so talented. Your videos are better than Painting with Bob Ross!
Thanks for the kind words, Mike
I almost died when I saw you mixing that by hand. You must have great core strength. I'm doing all this stuff on my house and boy what a learning journey.
Thanks peep, I am sure you will do fine, Mike

Great video
Thanks, Mike
Hi Mike. The weather in New York is still plenty good for this work. Thank you.
Wendy
Thanks wendy, mike
You can tell a true mason by their technique and confidence. True masons will always know the tricks and tips on how to do these things. If you watch other mason videos you'll find guys in the 20s-40s trying to act like they know what theyre doing and you can tell right away by their technique, the material they use, and how they mix it that they dont know much about masonry. Glad I found your channel.
Btw I'm from Scranton, PA. I thought I recognized your accent, and as soon as you started talking about rocks and coal I was certain you were a NEPA guy.
Thanks Chris, When we talk people think we are from a different country, lol, Mike
What a massive improvement
Thanks John, Mike
I love how the white birch trees reclaim the old coal hills. My relatives live in Jim Thorpe PA and Lansford PA. All the white birch trees grow over the ugly coal hills that were left there. It was ugly now it is beautiful. Or as Mike would say with his accent Beat I Full!!!
Thanks , mike
Well done mike another good job. Regards rocco from uk.
Thanks rocco, Mike
