Before I could complete the paver project, I had to do some concrete repairs on the front step. Again, another first for this type of project. Talk about learning experiences!
Left Side of the Front Step
Right Side of Front Step
Corner of Upper Step
Using plywood scraps, I build corner forms and set to work mixing up quick set concrete. This stuff definitely sets up quick.
Stuff I used. Time consuming, but not difficult.
After about 10 minutes I could remove the forms and set to work smoothing out the sides and edges.
Upper Step Repaired
Repaired Left Side of Step
Repaired Right Side of Step
What I learned: Only mix what you can use in one section at a time. Quick set cement does set quick!
Another well overdue project completed. I'm sure I saved $$$ learning to do this myself. My Dad would be proud!
Until next time...
