Hang with the dudes from RTC as we remove a concrete driveway with a set of pallet forks. we removed and set up this one on Monday and came back Tuesday morning and poured it out.
Old masons just never fade away, I’m 74 1/2, today I was hand cutting stone for a dry stack project I finished. This afternoon I was watching a Victory Services video, about concrete, tonight, I’m watching another concrete video from you guys, what’s wrong with me? LOL I’m retired damn it! LOL 😂
As a mechanic who enjoys watching concrete work, i relate to your "shop talk" 😂. You can always tell when youve got a solid team when work gets done efficiently all while bullshitting. Youve gained another sub!
You also got subs because you popped up as a suggested video for anyone who watches Victory. Crazy your literally across the river from me. Ever though about hiring a CDL driver and getting your own dump truck? Could have him do clean up while he's not driving.
Absolutely! Dave has a class A, and I do plan on buying a dump truck soon. We're just getting started, so never know, we may be looking to add guys in the near future 🤘
Having done concrete removal the hard way some 50 years ago, proper equipment such as pallet forks is an excellent approach to keep injuries to a minimum.
Yea I came from victory’s channel and So far I love your content! I find myself relating to you guys more because y’all do concrete close to how we do it down here in Houston. Keep it up
RYAN (Victory) did mention you on one his last stamping jobs trick with the joiner n edger sweeet trick and your channel got me hooked too thanks soon you’ll be like Eric, Mike Day, Odell , and the KING himself RYAN sooner than you think CONGRATS 🎉
Been using forks to break out for years myself, straight into my dump truck in big pieces, no messing about with hydraulic hoses and noise zero mess, so many benefits if you no how to operate correctly
Found your channel today so i am just skipping around watching random videos. Really good channel great crew you have. Ricky is all business it seems like. Appreciate the videos
Been waiting for new video lol. Awesome video been here from the start I knew your channel would takeoff. Congratulations you deserve it. Look forward to the next one.
Told you my brother I sent your channel out all over victory subscribers and look well over 15,000 and climbing fast told you I would help you out brother
Ryan is a great guy but you guys stop saying ryan is the reason for this and that This is awesome content watchinf victory vids may have got us here but Rick has kept us here Rick doesnt owe Ryan anything and im sure Ryan would agree.Please dont make this some weird compitition.
Denver Colorado here checking in. Loving the videos man keep it up. Here from Victory channel as well. Just tell Owen to hurry up 😂 😂 Jk. Keep up the good work and videos 🤘🏼🤘🏼
People need to understad the Rick and Ryan got similar content so thats why evryone who waches Victor y is getting recomended to ur channel please stop saying u getting recomended from Victory and enjoy the content (btw i got recomended from Victory ) and u dont see me saying it evry videos i wach
happy to see growing channel, you guys deserve it Residents love the forklift method, so they don't have to listen to jackhammer. Would it be possible just putting slabs onto flatbed trailer to avoid breaking up and doing double the work🤔
Thank you! I never thought of that, but I bet they do appreciate it at 7am 😆 honestly this method is extremely efficient. Once I get a tandem truck, it will definitely speed up the process. Thanks for watching 🤘
Definitely paved the way... but 85% of the subscribers found us from the short video of Jason and I free-handing that flower design. 11k subs from one short 💪🤘😎
I bought a set of bolt-on forks for my TYM 474 tractor when I watched your tear-out. Got a 40x30 cracked driveway out in less than an hour. 4 overloaded dump trailer trips to the concrete plant to dump it all, and was done, BY MYSELF in 3 hrs, including the dump runs. I had planned 2 full days thinking about jackhammer and scooping. Even used the forks to cut up some rooted grass and dirt and got an extra 12x30ish dug out and ready for gravel in an hour with scooping! Didn't think I would have time to set up that extra space in a weekend! Thanks for the tip. Saved me renting equipment and saved me a buttload of time overall! If I had known, I would save almost a day and a half?.. I could have gotten my "crew" together and done the pour the next day!
@@RickThomasConcrete I'm anew concrete guy out of Dallas and I've learned a lot from your videos. I appreciate you posting your work it's great! How may s.f. was that driveway if you don't mind me asking? I can do the work and I'm staying pretty busy but i still need to get my bidding right.
@Jesse I would focus on fine-tuning your cost. Break down absolutely everything to the last penny. When I first started out, I would run the numbers 10 times on every bid to make sure it was fair to the customer and me. Once you know exactly what the job will cost you, then add your profit percentage. Then you can break it down to a sf price. Once you've done so many, you will find an average sf price on your work. This job was around 1500ft²
Yea Ryan from victory like 2 episodes ago I believe shouted u out just like I saw this trick from Rick Thomas definitely give him a shout u guys provide quality content man
Thanks, brother! That was super cool of him to do that, I'm working on a video now, and I most definitely thank him. I've been trying to find time to edit, but I never thought it was going to grow so fast. I was planning on a year to get 1k subs. 🤘
If you ask me God honestly no hate I think victory Outdoor Services (Ryan) made concrete work go viral on CZcams thank him …. He’s the reason concrete work is on the recommended
@@RickThomasConcrete good video tho bro I’ve only watched Ryan on CZcams do concrete work I just finished watching yours it’s also enjoyable keep up the good work !!!!

the concrete still in good shape, wonder why they want to remove it
I actually like this, more comedy just became a sub
Thanks 😊
Do you put rebars in all your driveways or did the customer request it be installed?
Everything we pour gets rebar🤘
38:35 eeeeeeeeeeez money jk jk Loving the videos look forward to more :) #ConcreteAddict4Life
Awesome Video!!
Thank you! 🤘
Another awesome job and congrats on the sub count blowin up

How much do you charge per sq ft to remove that driveway?? Im Robert from north Carolina area
I subbed cause Victory mentioned you
Хорошая работа!
Congrats on your new subscribers! What do you charge for that driveway removal and replace?
Thank you! 😊 Each job is a little different... A job this size is usually around $14k - $16k

Sidewalk and approach too?
Yes
My boss pop slaps out just like that without breaking them. I just hop in the dump with a sledgehammer and some love taps.
We did the same thing for years but I had a guy lose a finger up in the back of the dump truck so I stop doing it
When is the grand prize giveaway going to be announced? What will it be?
In the next couple of videos, we will let everyone know. We have a few things in mind to show our love for all the support 🤘
How deep do you guys have to dig the down spout in the ground? Awesome Videos ? Y’all CZcams Channel is going to Grow Huge !!!!!!
It just depends on the grade and how far we are running it, usually 6" to 8". Thank you! 😊
You guys are funny
