Carlton Concrete Pour


    My brickmasons, two brothers, Manuel and Luis Espinosa, are probably the most talented I've seen. They have been in Durham for around 20 years, and when we arrived at the house today to get ready for the big concrete pour, Luis entered slowly, looking around, and he told me: "My mom used to live here around 14 years ago." Small world indeed! Here's a photo of underneath the rear wall of the house; 53 feet of concrete poured today with steel reinforcement. A total of 17 piers, 11 along this wall and six inside have been prepared for block and brick in the coming days. Then we can get the 53 feet of rear wall re-established onto the new foundation.
