Conctractor Didn't Screed Under 2x10's when Forming Steps
Hi Everyone,
I had a company pour new concrete steps at my apartment building but they forgot to screed under the 2-by's that formed the risers. Their solution was to even it off with some other masonry product which they applied to the risers too.
Now, 2-1/2 years later, it is peeling off the risers and popping off the treads where the 2-by's were (when formed).
I am about to contact them but want to be armed with knowledge: what would the appropriate repair be for this problem? Vinyl concrete patching? Something else?
I paid a lot of money for these steps just to make the place look better, now it looks bad and the only reason I paid for this was to make it look good.
Thanks in advance!
