Concrete wall with wooden door

Jens — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 16:14:23 +0000

We just finished a court yard in uptown dallas. Our customer had a wooden wall with a fence gate to enter from the street and provide some privacy.
We removed that wooden wall and door and poured a small footer for a CMU block wall.
The wall was build and filled with concrete and then covered with a vertical concrete mix. After completion we installed a custom oak wood door in European Style. The door was custom build in our shop and then installed into the opening of the wall.
We also installed a nice stainless steel handle and automatic door lock for our customer.

Another custom job well done……

We now offer power washing and cleaning of concrete surfaces. We use a 3500 psi washer and have different attachments to clean which ever surface our customers need cleaned.
After cleaning is finished we also offer concrete sealing.

Cedar Patio Covers

Jens — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 15:57:00 +0000

We are currently working on another patio cover made out of cedar.
The way we design and build our patio covers or shade covers is that we measure the size at the customers house and bring those back to the shop.
We purchase all lumber needed at a local supply store in McKinney, TX. We generally use 6×6 cedar posts, 2×8 cedar stringers and 2×6 cedar rafters with 2×2 cedar slats.
We always cut decorative ends onto our boards and after inspection stain them prior to installation.
The stringers are mounted onto the posts with 1/2″ all thread galvanized bolts and the nuts on either ends are sunk into the lumber so they don’t stick out.
Depending on our customers individual needs we either install the posts into the ground set into 5500 psi concrete or mount them onto the concrete with Simpson metal shoes.
All posts will have a decorative brace installed that has a decorative cut.
If needed we also install a 12″ brace to be used to mount an exterior ceiling fan onto.
We normally are able to come to your house and install the patio cover or shade structure in 1 day after having prepared it off site at our shop.
We use TWP stains from Plano, TX and have 5 colors to choose from.

Shot blasting

Jens — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 15:41:40 +0000

In the concrete re-surfacing and decorative surface industry the best way to prep a concrete surface is by Shot-blasting the existing concrete so that the new product has a clean surface to bond to.

Shot-blasting is more or less dust free.

Concrete leveling

Did you know it is possible to level concrete slabs?

Ardex has a self leveling product to apply at a min. 1/4″ and thicker.

The slab will need to be prepped correctly, but the results are awesome.

We can either level the floor to be covered with a flooring material or just use a SDT material and stain it, or leave it clear coated. We call that a designer floor.

Warehouse floors can also be leveled and the product is fork lift approved. As a new addition to the product line, we can level exterior concrete surfaces like parking lots, garages, any concrete surface that is collecting water. We add a self leveler to adjust the draining issues.

Garage floors or porches that slant one direction can be leveled in case you are planning on enclosing the area and making it part of the living area now.

As with all overlays prep work is very important!!!!!
