@xheatherwalker: Apparently the concrete was “too wet” and the chute was “wrong / more exspensive” so here’s me womensplaining why we did it this way #DIYprojects #bluecollar #Womenintrades #Homerenovation #buildersoftiktok

20 MINS - BOW LOCKS AND HOW MUCH WERE THE MATERIALS - A PUMP WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE COST EFFECTIVE !!!!

building on a less than 24 hours old footing? good to see people not allow proper curing time

Personally I would go for c35 in any footing. If you are going up one floor fine if you ever wanna go up another you have the concrete to cope. Plus for an extra £15/20 a cube I would have just coz

I don't know anything about relative cost effectiveness, but this looks more fun

It wasn't 20minutes to set it up surely, but yes it's quicker and cheaper.

It’s cheaper and more cost effective to use a pump, it’s a simple as that.
