Winter Concrete Vancouver

The winter weather sure makes concrete pours difficult
in Vancouver BC.
While most of the country basking in sunshine ,
and solid -40 Celsius with 3-4 feet snow on the ground.

At the same time...

Us Vancouverites getting a wide variety, and amount of
rain.
If you know anything about concrete, it must be the
fact that...

...it doesn't look good finished in pouring rain!

But never the less, we do our job sometimes in the
rain,
it just happens, so we learned to deal with it.

Bigger suspended slabs can be machined, than sweep
troweled,
as long as some one picks up the bill for grinding
the spotted, and rough surface.

Concrete sidewalks, patios, driveways poured in the
rain?
Don't even think about it, unless you do not care
about the final product, or don't care if you're
getting payed. .

As soon the sun reappear on the sky all Vancouver
concrete contractors get busy very fast.
Working in the lower mainland for the last couple
decades we have gotten used to deal with the rain,
and a certain percent of risk is acceptable.

When the weather forecast is calling for a chance of
rain, concrete contractors bring your tarp, or poly
with you.

"How I met Fred Roselli"
I have applied for a job to five of the than biggest concrete companies, to the suggestion of the late Patrick ST Denis, a Christian brother, who was also a cement finisher.
None of them bothered to reply, so I took the initiative, and went to see Mr Fred Roselli,the owner of Roselli Concrete.
When he first looked at me I new what he was thinking of. I was looking beat, having long hair, and a beard, and of top of all I was very skinny too.

...So before he could turn me down I assured him that I was in deed a very hardworking individual in spite what he saw, and it would be a good decision of him to hire me,
so he put me to work right away, ...and I have never held back ever since!
