Any construction, as a rule, involves the implementation of a number of works using cement mortar. Concreting is especially relevant for owners of country houses who are in a state of "permanent" repair and ennoblement of the surrounding area. The use of concrete in this case is in demand everywhere: when filling garden paths, and when installing from walkways, and when erecting a fence.
In view of such an acute need for cement mortar, the required amount of which is determined by the scale of the work being carried out, many builders personally mix concrete mixtures or prefer to purchase it ready-made. This, of course, is very convenient, although sometimes not entirely rational, because the cost of cement mortar is quite high, and it is often required not so much. In addition, it is far from always possible to take advantage of professional services for the production of concrete and its transportation to the work site.
Independently mixing the solution will be much more justified from an economic point of view - it will cost an order of magnitude cheaper and, importantly, it will not require significant time costs. With sufficient patience and some effort, you can make concrete by hand, but it’s better to buy (rent) a quality concrete mixer for this purpose or design a concrete mixer do it yourself.
