      On August 3, 2022 I received a load of concrete that was 30 minutes late.... It wouldn't take water..... did not seem to have the 2% retarder in it... the driver dumped a half yard of concrete on the existing driveway by accident.... It was loaded at 10:18 and At arrived on job at 10:59 and at 12:16 we were walking on is as we were still pouring out. Do not feel comfortable paying for this concrete, would like money back. Complained August 3 complained again August 16 then also complained to the salesman and quality control on August 22. And so far the resolution has been no resolution

      Business Response /* (1000, 5, 2022/09/03) */
      "SRM Concrete denies Mr. *******'s request for refund of products and services provided on August 3, 2022. In the attached mix-design, the highlighted portion shows the 2% retardant ordered by Mr. ******* was included in the concrete he received. All records indicate the heat index was between 98 and 100 on August 3rd in West Point, KY. Additionally, the humidity was below 60%. Even with the 2% retardant, in these conditions, we, and the NRMCA, would fully expect the concrete to begin curing after the 1.5 hours it took for Mr. ******* to finish the concrete. These conditions qualify for special finishing procedure outlined by the NRMCA's CIP Hot Weather Concreting. Rule number 6 states, "Begin final finishing operations as soon as the water sheen has left the surface; start curing as soon as finishing is completed." This procedure was not followed by Mr. ******* on August 3, 2022. It is on these grounds that SRM denies the request for refund."
