Hi all I want to mix some concrete tomorrow for a shed base but need to use a hose for the mixer. Is this allowed for domestic building or diy work? I'm in Oxfordshire if that helps. Thanks

What about making your own sea glass, toss broken bottles into the cement mixer with some gravel and water... goggles and ear defenders essential.o_O

If you don't fancy doing the stone repair yourself, is there sufficient wall left to fix shuttering and infill with concrete. It'll look pants, and you'll have to do it in careful stages so as not to overload the remaining wall, and shuttering. The shuttering will need some substantial bracing...

As someone pointed out, most power tools are used for seconds at a time so operating cost is pretty minimal. Exceptions- cement mixer running all day, compressor in use for paint spraying or similar, wallpaper stripper on for a couple of hours. Still not worth worrying about the cost- I'll...

...10f long. Not retaining much at all, just for decoration and hold in a bit of earth/raised garden of maybe 12" width. I don't have a cement mixer and just mixing the 'footings' will probably require 3 of the big garden waste tubs of concrete , which I know my wrists are going to be...

Hose it down when your done but to remove any going off reside, chuck 1/2 dozen shovels of clean chipping with plenty of water ,they will scour the drum clean without beating 7 bells out of it.

...let it dry and then do another layeer and then pebbledash it? What do I use for the render/cement mixture. Does anyone know the ratios and is it just a 25kg standard multipurpose bag of cement from b&q? I will be mixing by hand using a paddle mixer since I don't have a cement mixer. Many thanks

Any tips on cleaning a cement mixer? Do I just hose it down when done?

I got got a cheap one from Screwfix , £220, used it 2 years then sold it on for £180. Just spend time to clean thoroughly after use ...

I'm after a cement mixer and wanted some advice on what to look for as I'm a complete novice. The reason I want one is I have a lot of garden works which as a DIYer who has to consult the internet and YouTube, it would not be economical for me to hire one. I have 2 small walls i would like to...

Screed Accelerator can mean more than one thing may reduce time before it’s hard enough to stand on, not be dry. it depends on the product and method of mixing. if a product was used that reduces drying time, the screed must be mixed with a forced action mixer or screed pump, if was mixed with...

I have had a Petrol mixer belle 150l with 3.5hp briggs stratton used a while back for a project with no power, Then stored in the garage for few years. The other day we put it outside and tried to start with no luck. Removed carburettor, pushed some air and bang started at first pull. I then...

Done it a few times JD, and if you can tip mixer direct into trench/floor it’s easy and quick. No buckets needed, cement bags cut in half and 10 shovels of ballast which is already next to the mixer. Hose with trigger spray or big water butt next to you. Each mix is maybe 5mins or however long...

Sounds optimistic, I'm definitely DIY and I'd give myself half a day at least as you have to double handle 3 tonnes of materials so 6 tonnes, first into the mixer and second out of the mixer. A mixer is about 125l but if you do 6 ballast one cement in a 14l bucket that would be 100l, so that...

...are right next to the path / road … I don’t think I could get any closer if I tried lol Guess I just have to figure out ready mix v cement mixer… I have a cement mixer ( even though I’m A Plumber lol ) and the ballast etc would be right next to it. I Guess it’s just how long it would take...

I mixed pretty much exactly the amount predicted by mystic noseall recently and it took well under 2 hours, and I had to spread it around over steel mesh for a floor, which you won’t. As long as the bags are near the mixer just keep it going, feed it, tip it in the trench. Cut bags of cement in...

1:2:3 mix (cement, sand and stone) using chippings with small stones will work. Any re-bar? Veg oil or cooking oil will work for oiling the forms. Bucket the mix in from close range - no dropping from a mixer etc. wet mix bad - have the mix just so it flows and tamp in layers with a 2 x 4...

Whacking down type 1 mot is always going to be much cheaper and cleaner than mixing concrete for any significant area. Hiring the mixer is a bit cheaper than a whacker and the aggregate is similar cost but at 5 pounds a bag the cement is the not so hidden cost there. You can't whack down 150mm...
