Notch concrete wall.

1 review of top notch concrete cutting great customer service fast and professional. Use a standard circular saw equipped with a corundum or diamond blade for small tasks. I ve already got a handle on what the header needs to be and know that i need to support the joists above. 4 tall by 4 6 wide.

Top notch is our go to concrete company hands down. This 4 inch s will allow you to place the floor joist on top of it. The wall is 8 poured concrete and the window is kinda big. The angled side surfaces of the blocks also allows.

Because basement floors are poured after the walls are poured the concrete where they meet doesn t always bond completely and this is a common spot for a crack to appear when the house. Some designers recommend re ducing joint spacings by about 20 in walls with frequent openings such as doors and windows. I ll be removing the wall all the way up to the sill plate. For slabs it s best to cut through the top inch then use a sledgehammer to break off the rest.

This company provides concrete contractor services specializing in sidewalks driveways approaches brick and block work foundations as well as stamped and decorative finishes. The jagged edge left below the cutting line provides a good rough edge for the new concrete to bond to. This 4 inch thick wall should be from the outside of the foundation wall what this does is leave a 4 inch shelf or lip or notch on the inside of the foundation. First chip the bumps cracks and dents on the concrete wall with a hammer.

Then flush and fill the areas with cement. Use a flat scrap of wood to even and smoothen out the surface and let this dry for a few hours or overnight. Tom walked us through the entire job with no hesitation. Once the cement is dry apply the bonding agent that should give the surface a rough texture.
