Hi my concete at my store
Just a query. How do u stop mould growing on a concrete surface. Not how to clean it, as I have a pressure cleaner, but how to prevent it growing in the first instance.
Its a shady area that is the problem.
@@Blue1Sapphire Simplest and cheapest method is 50/50 bleach. Mixed in a wide bucket and use a 12" wide very soft poly brittle broom like a boat deck brush. Dip the brush in the bleach, shake the brush to drop the excess into the bucket and then gently scrub the concrete. Don't get it on anything that you don't want to damage. >>> Like your nice grass lawn! Do this cleaning on a very cloudy day or at sun up before it gets too hot. You can go back and redo a scrub as you need. The first scrub and let sit will assure the mold will die and clean up. The second pass will assure a nice even clean concrete.
Take your garden hose and wash down the concrete thoroughly!!
Once dry, you can use a concrete sealer if you wish!
Have fun, Cheers
@@lisab3396 how about just using straight cement mixed with water and spreading it over the concrete surface. Cement is alkaline I believe and so should prevent mould growing.
@@Blue1Sapphire Wasting your time with that approach! Mold will not be fully removed and will return.
Your big skill is completing the coats with those black trainers still clean lol
Wow I looked at the time frame of this video over an hour and thought I would skip through it. No - I sat and watched the complete video , it was so interesting the the hour flew by and I learned LOTS. Thanks for sharing your skills ....
It's easier and faster to watch if you adjust the playback settings to 1.25x.

I am amazed that your shoes are still clean!!! Great Job/Art!!!
I'm really impressed how clean his shoes are. Amazing.
Black shoes,black pants, black shirt. Me being from south Louisiana that wouldn’t be a wise choice. A much liter color would have been my choice.
@@billdeville6685 He's in training to join Antifa. The black mask comes out at night. LOL
As a sufferer of OCD and being a perfectionist, I really appreciate the attention to detail. Great work. Looks great! Thanks for posting.
I definitely will repair my old driveway just the same way these gentlemen are doing it. THANK YOU
Finally! Someone that knows what they are doing! Great Job!!
All of these concrete surface videos and not a single one will ever give you an update why because the concrete resurfacing is crap all of them are crap in a year or two it’s gonna look almost the same sorry if you think this guy knows anything he doesn’t
surprised the client didn't have the entire driveway done. seems like a missed opportunity! nice work.
Very nice job. The reason I try to learn to do this type of work is most of the time I hire a contractor to do work they never have the attention to detail as you demonstrate in this video.
Finally someone who knows how to pour out of a 5 gallon bucket !
Fantastic video! Looks brand new. Takes time but end result obviously worth the effort. Thanks for detailed description of steps u took and why!

How To's are subscribed to. Shills are saved individually. That's how most logic driven folks organize.
I remember when I was younger I said it's no brainer.not anymore.hiring this cru it's the smart thing to do
I saw a botched job during a recent walk, nice to see this is doable if done right.
Great to see craftsmen at work!
I love watching confident and efficient tradies
How did you like watching this video?
@@TomBrooklyn It took alot of time. I like it when a boring job can be put on fast forward once the viewer gets the drift. These tradies were superb. Job well done. Very professional.
Excellent job; you men have your procedure down pat.
10/10 I watched the full video. Totally captivated me! You guys are real pros! Even the police were amazed. The labour cost here in Africa prices it out of my affordability range, but will never quite understand it. :-(
That squeegee application is mesmerizing. Super satisfying!
thanks for sharing your skills.....may God Bless you
You guys are awesome professionals. You did a beautiful job! 👏👏👏❤️
Great job guys
Thank you! Much appreciated
Well done fellas. Very thorough and instructional.
beautiful!!!!! next spring 2023 that will be my project
Awesome video. I wish some of the questions were answered.
Your shoes are unbelievably clean for doing this kind of work - sign of a pro.
hes got lots of pairs in the back of his truck
This group are chimist by profession the so good at mixing and applying
Excellent explaining each step as you flow product each steps ×3 total needed -keeping prep concrete wet before applying the next coat--Great easy directions for keeping product always moving flowing forward to completing each section completing
Many people hate long tutorials of any kind of work, but for me, The longer the video the more satisfied I get because of the more info's I get along the way.
- They always give you many of great ideas and thoughts of the people who're making the videos.
- amazing video
Excellent video. This dude is a perfectionist.... explained every step. Nice work.
I really need to do this in my garage
Looks great, I might actually attempt to do my own after watching this great video.
love all the chatter marks left in the far right section even after several coats and a brushed finish.
@@Smokey420Greenleaf Not something they did wrong on the job. Look closer and you'll see those are marks that are actually the concrete itself. Plus, they're using a brush to match the pattern on the slab which originally had a brushed look to it for better grip.
The color will match the rest of the surrounding concrete as it ages and sees vehicle/foot traffic and inevitable dirt lol
Amazing! Now where do I find someone to do this for me? lol
i kinda like it with the gravel exposed
Love their attention to detail. Looks awesome!!! Excellent instruction video.
Thank you! How well a project goes always depends on the details!
this is a great video. thanks for the thoroughness and simplicity. I'm not a DYF person but I like to understand what is expected from those I hire. Thanks again.
would Like to see a long-term video of this stuff in a winter climate, because I feel like the winters in eastern WA might get under it and freeze and crack it.
Also, seems like several day process?
Does this fill cracks and what is cost of a 18'x 20' job for 2 car garage?
انت فني ممتاز وانا احترمك واتعلم منك الكثير شكرا اخي
OUTSTANDING
An outstanding demonstration of this type of repair.
Excellent product.
Very professional in every regard.
Well done..

Any idea how well does it hold up over time? Does extreme heat (100 +) cause degradation? Is this a new product? Does anyone know how it looks after 5 years?
First off, I wasn’t really searching for a video on this topic, but I am interested if this would be appropriate to address my garage floor before epoxy.
Secondly, this has to be one of the best instructional videos I have ever seen on CZcams (and I watch many videos). You seemed to answer all of my questions as you went, with great attention to detail. Very nice job guys!!!
Possibly, depending on the end goal and desired finish. Please email pictures to customerservice@leggari.com and we can give you an educated answer for your specific situation. There are some garage coatings that may not require much repair at all before installing. Thanks
The best instruction video would have had a demonstration done on driveway with cracks and uneven surfaces.
You guys are extraordinary, very well organized and you do perfect work, each step of your work is well thought. No mess around, you are very professional. Extraordinary work, well done video ❤️
I agree 100 %
We appreciate this greatly! Thank you!
Love the details you do
Great video.. I need this, I checked the price on this.. I think I must do new concrete compared to the price difference.. but as far as a DIY job looks doable.
Good video they where good workman
As someone with over forty years in the concrete business, I cringe every time I see a video of guys working with cement products while wearing shorts. Cement burns are a real thing. Also when pouring dry cement a face mask should be worn to protect against silica dust.
Same here, 43 years finishing, I don't think he knows that he's on city sidewalk, he will if an inspector catches him!
As someone whose worked in concrete for 2 years I can say shorts are fine and if you have a fan to expel the dust theres no problem at all.
I don't think its concrete.
Amen
😂🎉😅😊
BEAUTIFUL!
Wow. A lot of technique involved.
Hi there. Thank you so much for the informative video. I was just wondering, the concrete in my garage is chipping similar to the sidewalk shown at the beginning of the video. Would you recommend that I use this method for the concrete inside my garage? or is there a totally different method when it comes to inside concrete? Thanks again.
You guys are pros. This video was oddly satisfying because of how clean the edges were done and the system. Also great that you showed it’s ok to add a little extra product after scraping off a chunk during the application on the final layer
Thank you!
Great detail spot on brothers
Love the step by step guide, even if it's minor details.
These guys are extra-ordinarily good at this! Obviously not their first rodeo. The visual and verbal instructions make it look super easy as long as you adhere to the techniques described. Awesome Job!!!
Long term, does the finish need resealed? Does it age and turn darker gray like regular concrete? Does is have a glossy epoxy finish?
dude u r the ish, love ur detail in the explanation
Thank you for doing your videos!
TAPE - You may want to try using Gaffer's tape. It sticks really well and does not leave a residue.
Is this just plain concrete overlay? Or does it have self leveling epoxy in it as well? Can this be used on a concrete slab that has cracked and is uneven to make a smooth, level surface again?
Nice job done. Thank you.👍👍👍
I think These guys are multi talented.😱😱😱........great job
It definitely seems that way, but there’s plenty of things we’re not good at, lol. Coatings, in general, are in our wheelhouse though. Thanks!
@@LeggariProducts I didn't mean that...! But
I actually appreciate these guys... 👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍
I like this. I know you guys are pros but I'm thinking that if you have planned where you will finish, it might be a good idea to tape down some overflow paper there outside the last piece of blue tape so you can squeegee extra product across the blue tape onto the paper.
This looks like a great job to leave for the pros.
@Michael Collins 🤣😂😂
Awesome job. Looks great.
you guys do a great job explaining each step
Thank you! We love what we do!
How deep of a hole can this fix? My driveway has some large cracks and places where chunks have come out. But some of it would cover fine.
Do you have any color tints? My sidewalk is a tan color.
Awesome job and excellent instructions. I noticed when you were spreading the product you left space for your feet in the middle. If I didn't know better I thought you were a dance instructor! Great Job.
Very good instructional video.
Thank great video, is there any test to see how long the finish lasts?
Yep. They made another video of the same job, one week later. The second video is called, "Time to Recoat".
Thanks for the video. We all need to understand that the concrete overlay is the cosmetic part of the process not the structural part. So with any cosmetics the process will wear out and need to be redone. Just like cosmetics for people they wear out over time, weather and other things. So will this process.
Very good job
Definitely most have a magic hand
I did the same thing on a many of drive ways and it worked always, however i used bond to existing concrete chemical spray to open the pours of the concrete and “ versa bond tile mortar” don’t mix with water, mix with concrete bonding adhesive only, add a little play sand and spread; the adhesion is amazing, remember to pre-set the ground after through cleaning 🧹 with a concrete bonding adhesive, the same way they apply water in this video.
My way requires speed and know how, cuz the versa bond and adhesives dry fast which is good for strong 💪 curing/bonding to the already set concrete. ( something like the quick bonding in “ easy sand 5 min plaster- which is amazing too for drywall.
All the methods that they used in the video with the exception of the product. Are correct. I just use a different product but the methods are the same, Great job
Even in my mixing of the “versa bond mortar “ I use ( bond to existing concrete adhesive in my mix, 🙅🏾not the same as in this video “ remember” the secret is the (coats )
Do not try to get long term beauty in one coat 🤦🏼♂️ add up to three layers depending on the current condition of the concrete. This is only a “ skim coating “ process. * if you’re concrete project has more then 1/2” of damage. *Do Not attempt this process.
*There’s another process for more than 1/2”damage resurfacing repair.
Lllipopo9o
Great Tip..!!
What is the process for more than 1/2”damage resurfacing repair ?
Looks great stuff I have my concrete drive way power floated and now it’s started top bit of it breaking up. How expensive is it
From what ive seen about 7-12 grand
@@angelrinkson6238 no way. For how many square feet?
@@angelrinkson6238 just checked their website it says 295$ … why would you say that lol
fantastic instructional video, very well explained and detailed in the process start to finish. Awesome job. thanks for the lesson.
Thank you! We appreciate this so much!
Very amazing work Thank so much
Which would be cheaper for the property owner? To do what’s in this video, or to pay someone to rip out the old concrete sidewalk and pour a new one?
I would remove the tape before it completely dries.
wow.. great lesson on this. I've been looking at some cracks in my driveway after power washing.. looks like another project in the works after viewing this.
thank you
These guys are hilarious !!
Can this be used on a smooth concrete patio? And, can color be added to it?
A tip for using a sprayer; Be sure that the sprayer has a pressure relief valve. Normal valve will open at approx 40 lbs. Take an auto or bicycle tire valve stem, drill a hole to accomodate the valve stem,put the valve stem inside the sprayer and pull through the hole.The hole should be toward the top of the sprayer above the liquid level. Set an air compressor at 30-35 lbs and fill.
I did this to my sprayer a couple of years ago. It's a good tip.
Great advice! Thank you! Also, MUCH cheaper than buying a sprayer that has this feature.
@@LeggariProducts Also, remove the tape before it completely dries. Same concept when painting a car. Either the tape becomes too hard to remove or it will remove some of the material you laid down.
That’s a great idea! I’ve wished I could pump my sprayer with a compressor, but didn’t know how to make a valve that would work (one way). That’s great advice. Thanks.
As someone that's newish to pressure washers and has never seen or heard of a pressure release valve for one... Your description while interesting and detailed enough for anyone that has ever seen a pressure release valve..... I have no idea where on earth you are describing to put one😂.
Pretty nice job. Goes over every small details.
It does! It's a great option for "shiny" new concrete😍
Amazing work guys
Looks great! Minimal info (coverage, shipping, durability, shipping estimates, examples, etc...) on website though :(
The video was great - and very professionally done. You guys did an excellent job overall (narration, material application, thorough description of the tools used at each stage of the process)...and the end-result looks great! Pressure washing, taping at least twice, 3 coats of product, followed by 3 coats of sealer, and the requisite drying times between each coat. Plus, the labor component of at least two (and possibly three) people...in addition to the cost of the materials themselves. I couldn't help but to wonder about a cost-comparison between resurfacing that same area - and the cost of breaking out and replacing the concrete. Have you created a cost-comparison? As for myself, my motivation for carefully watching the entire video, was because the concrete in my 3-car garage (from the garage door...progressing two feet inward) is severely eroded and pock-marked due to road salt and slush that melted and fell from the vehicles (in Michigan). So, I'm evaluating my options to deal with this very pitted surface. How does your product hold-up in northern winter conditions? Will it maintain adhesion, or spall and delaminate? Once, again - great job, and great video!
So true! Huge difference between living in the frozen north and living in points south. Then again I don't have to deal with hurricanes and earthquakes.
Wow!!!! Great details and explanation how to do this job and just wondered….. how is your back pain???
I am already exhausted and tired jut to looking at you. I will like call you to do all this! Thanks for your video. I enjoyed it! Good luck
This video is good for curing insomnia.😪👍
Wash, Rinse, Repeat.....could have been a 20 minute video at the most.
A true pro! Not a drop on the black shoes!
I was thinking of using this on my concrete front steps. Can you use it on vertical surfaces as well?
id use quickrete's concrete resurfacer, its a lot cheaper, easier to use, faster and it actually matches standard gray concrete.
Nice job! Looks damn good IMO. Better than brand new.. No doubt about that. But I'm wondering how durable it is.
Do you have any videos showing what a slab you repaired 5, 10 or 15 years ago looks like today so we can judge for ourselves how well your method stands the test of time, so to speak?
And could you tell us some of the pitfalls to watch out for?
Nice detail work excellent! 👍👍
looks nice .. and quite a lot of work.
Thats looks Awesome!!! Is this product available for DYI and what tools are needed for the application? Thanks.
I have used your products for counter tops and love them! If I put this on my shop floor! Will the wheels on my creeper roll freely and not grove it up? And also can a color tint be added to the final coat?
And that's how I like to clean stuff! Get that proper adhesion preparation !
Subscribed best video Ive seen so far,Came out good!
It seems doable. You make it look so easy.
But I'll need to do four 6'x10' slabs of driveway.
But some parts of those slabs have cracked and fallen down, up to an inch or two below the driveway.
Does this system level everything out, or does that situation require more intensive repair methods?
For that kind of slab movement you have massive underlying issues under that slab. Look at where your downspouts are draining and check to make sure it's finally settled and not moving more.
Once it's stable that's when you can look at options to resurface it. Concrete levelling grinding and filling followed by a epoxy finish would be an idea. I'm curious to know if this method works in areas where temps are expressly cold and how well ice may stick to it
We had the whole driveway redone professionally.
