About to do a concrete slab for the first time in my life.
This is quite informative video. Gave me confidence that I can do it myself.
Thank you
Best of the best videos. Straight to the point without a lot of garbage, thanks.
Never thought I’d find a slab of concrete so beautiful.
Same lol
What a nice job on this video. I'm a former technical writer and appreciate well-structured and concise instructions. Your summary of what you were going to do, why, and the tools needed was extremely helpful and made the instruction part of the video that much more quick and easy to follow. Thank you!
Hi Gary, we're glad you enjoyed the video :) NM

Great video. Concise and easy to follow. I work in IT as a Technical Architect and often an Analyst who has to produce technical documentation or administrative videos - this video was one of the best I've seen as DIYer!
Clear, cool and polite, Thanks dude!
Awesome video. Very well explained. The tips on how to leveling the frame is gold. Thank you much
Your method for creating and squaring the frame, marking the perimeter and leveling it while fastening to the stakes is hands down the best and easiest method of ALL the videos on you tube. Thank you!
I've watched a dozen videos on this subject and they all do a terrible job of actually teaching... Until I saw this one. Literally everything one needs to know in 5 min. THANK YOU!!
Extremely concise and useful video. Beautifully created too. Great work, thank you
Very helpful video, keep them coming.
Very useful video. No fluff, you got right into the "How To Do It". Thank you
No background music to drown out the message. 10/10
Great tutorial. I am about to lay a concrete slab for my car port and found your video very helpful. 👏👏👏
Short, clear and simple. Great video!
Nice explanation. I'm thankful for people like you!
Thank you for posting the video, it was really neatly edited with concise instructions. Excellent job 👏
A very good video giving much information on making it like a pro.
Really enjoyed watching it with great interest.
Short and to the point, yet all the details needed. Thanks.
Well done, clear concise and to the point. Awesome video, thank you!!
Amazing teaching mate all I need for my new job!
Thank you so much 🙏🏼
Just what I wanted to know, all the little tips were great. Superb video mate.
Thank you sir! That was a great video demonstrating how it's done. Very simple and to the point and no blah..blah..blah like others. I can definitely save some money if only my wife would let me try. Thanks again!!.
This is by far the best video explaining everything I need to know very thoroughly!!!!
not true some critical steps were skipped.1 hydration.2. too wet concrete
Short, clear, concise and well articulated...my kind of DIY video.
Thank you for the awesome feedback :) NM
I wish we had Builders SA in Ladysmith, KZN. Your products are also good. Coming back to your video, well explained thank you
Simply the best DIY video on youtube. Thanks man
Right to the point! No extraneous BS, unlike so many how-to videos. Excellent!
I have the video one silent, I think your comment could be more satisfying! I think I will take your word for the video being just as awesome!
"No extraneous BS" - Using rebar is pointless in a slab this size.
Very well done, direct and uncomplicated
Thanks. Start to finish what I want or need to know in 5 minutes.
Saw many videos all talk & never pour.
Your Video explains & demonstrates. Kind of like doing it myself. I can re-watch a few time and develop Muscle Memory just from the watching.
You Sir are a Teacher. I'm not an Idiot but Concrete is not my expertise. I'm a Computer Guy with ability to follow a lead.
Good Leading.
Hi, glad you enjoyed the video :) NM
@is-haq wong AHAHAHAHA OMFG you're right. Is-haq wong you sumbiatch I laughed N farted.

Thanks for this video. I was wanting to make a concrete pad for a generator, and this is perfect.
Simply perfect!
Thank you
Thorough and concise explanation. Great job. Liked, subscribed, and shared with others.
Excellent video. Very helpful! Thank you.
best video i have seen on laying a concrete slab.
I saw people just laying the rebar mat on the dirt for a whole patio. That's going to cause it to burn through and probably Rust.
This video just gave me motivation.Thanks
Awesome tutorial.
Easy to understand.
Great video, thanks so much for the simple explanation! I'm getting ready to pour a small slab for a modern steel mailbox and was totally overthinking what I needed to do until I saw your video. Cheers!
Thank you for this video! This was exactly what I needed for a 4X2 slab I needed to pour. Never having done concrete before, I was nervous but I remembered the steps from your video and it came out great!
That's a LOT or rebar for a one square meter slab! Is he going to be driving tanks over it???
@@jonothandoeser lmao!
@@jonothandoeser Stfu stop trying to downgrade other people's effort and work u ass**le!
@@giovanirafael It's too much rebar, ASSHOLE! Are you really THIS stupid???
@@jonothandoeser In South Africa's it's for water tanks. This will probably carry the weight of a 2000l tank which is 2 tons.
Very nice. Bonus points on wearing the same clothes to provide continuity. 👍
Very well explained in simple terms. Thank you! Going to try it myself to save $.
Thank you for your time and the video !
Well done, excellent video. Thank you!

I have poured over 3000 slabs around light pole bases , this method is spot on well done 👍 just make it a bit thicker to 125mm to 150 and it will last forever
Good video, right to the point from A to Z.
Very good video. Thank you.
From across the pond! Very good.

Really great DIY instructional. I love the clear narration and excellent video work. This is going to help me lay a small slab in my yard, although I'm going to do some exposed aggregate as a finish. I'm planning to use bags of ready-mix and will buy a plastic mixing tray for the purpose. Thanks again: I have subscribed and am going to view your other videos.
John van Gurp . Thanks for the great feedback. I hope you enjoy the other clips.
Hi John, thank you for the positive feedback. :) NM
