[QUOTE="SlugSlinger, post: 4159103, member: 7248"] The jackwagon that I hired and paid to pour the concrete didn’t install rebar like I had requested. The weight of the pergola I built broke the concrete and it had been settling for the past couple of years. It’s a 7’x3’x4” section. I busted out the old concrete, dug a footer below the pergola leg, drilled and installed rebar into the sections on each end and the footer, then hand mixed 800 lbs of concrete to replace the original that had failed. It’s not done. I still need to finish it and let it cure for a week or so. Then install new lead anchors and reattach the pergola leg with the brackets I fabbed up.
