no bonding grid installed

[mh183]

there was no grid inspection. walkway was pored,and now its a mess.
what do you guys think if we now installed a grid and pored again or installed pavers rather then rip it up.

I would think that a grid on top of a slab would work just, but what do I know...:grin:

I think they should make them rip it up. I see this alot now. People have hot tubs installed and they dont put them in. some people need to learn the hard way.

I would vote for laying some mesh down on top of the slab and pouring a half inch or an inch of concrete on top of it.

I dont think a half inch of concrete would be very durable.

There are special concrete mixes and additives just for this kind of application, and they work quite well.

Sounds like a Hot Tub to me but I may be wrong.

Pavers also require the bonding grid. IMO a top coat of concrete over the bonding grid is a good solution.
