I brought in a concrete pump and concrete truck to pour the concrete slab in my cellar. The pump and the concrete truck told me they would need a wheelbarrow for their runoff at the end. They ended up leaving about four times that amount. What the actual fack? What am I supposed to do with this?

Here's a color and stamp from this year. Fieldstone pattern. Slate color, with charcoal antique. Like the title says, the customer asked for a Gothic feeling sidewalk. They were very pleased.

Just had our brand new (2,300 sq. ft) drive poured. I can't be forced to pay for this can I? This guy has to tear this out on his dime right? I've gotten multiple options but this has to be one of the worst concrete jobs done.

Homeowner With A Question Parents just paid to have countertops refinished. They were told their only option for sealer was epoxy. Left the job saying this was finished

Parents paid around $1000.00 to have countertops sanded and sealed. Guy sanded countertop surfaces. Didnt touch the edges. Told them epoxy was the only option for sealer and applied one layer. Said this was finished and isn’t coming back. How awful is this? I believe it’s an atrocious job but not sure what’s acceptable in this trade

I was told this was normal. Why not just dig the foundation deeper? The patio is about 4” above grade
