They Came, They Poured, They Concreted, They #@$&ed Up

What went wrong Al Riozzi (AJR Masonry)?

Seems we have some height issues with our pour and we have areas which differ in height by at least 1 & 3/8″. It doesn’t seem that we have a single isolated high spot, rather we have low and high areas. This week I’ll do a more detailed survey and take readings every foot or so in a grid fashion.

We spoke to some knowledgeable friends about this deviation and they said it was unacceptable, so we’ll contact Al Riozzi (AJR Masonry) in the week and see what he has to say and hopefully they can take care of it with self leveling compound.

So I didn’t didn’t have to keep checking that my measuring stick was completely vertical I made a 2-axis gimbal out of pvc pipes, some machines screws, part of a sewing reel and a dowel rod. Using this I can just place it and the dowel rod is always vertical.

I marked the deviations on a piece of paper and the higher the marker the lower the floor is etc.

So if you’re looking for a mason or concrete firm look NO further than Al Riozzi (AJR Masonry).

  1. Filling in low spots will be a lot easier than removing high ones, so fingers crossed.
