I'm really not having good luck finding a concrete/masonry guy. I really just need someone that will do small jobs at a reasonable price. Most of those guys are working for bigger operations. And the bigger operations are super expensive.
Sooooo..... I think I'm going to try to learn concrete work myself. I know almost nothing about doing it properly.
But I think I'm going to give it a go anyways. I have quite a few planters that I want to redo with a concrete footing. I figure I can practice on those before I tackle the pond.
A lot of those day laborers know quite a bit about concrete so I'll probably ask for one that has experience to help me out on some of these projects.
Probably gonna get this bad boy. It looks sorta flimsy but the reviews all say it is really sturdy. I didn't see any bad ratings.
If anyone has some good advice about concrete work and/or masonry I'm all ears.
