southernelitecrete, are you talking about this post of mine here? http://www.bobvila.com/BBS/Please_recommend_best_concrete_coating_to_waterproof_and_protect_it-Masonry_and_Stone-1-T2127.html#2127
Yes, it's several inches above ground. It's been almost THREE MONTHS since it was poured and we STILL have not got the SOB covered. I made the fatal mistake of going with tile. TWICE now the incompetent tile layer has FAILED. The tile would not stick to the concrete. Each tile was concave with the edges curled up! They blamed moisture, even though THEY have given the OK and approval to have the tile laid and used a moisture meter to approve it! Now the tile has to come up AGAIN, and this time they are going to have to go with ceramic/porcelain sealed tile with epoxy grout so the grout won't be porous. Of course each time they wait weeks dragging it out longer and longer and I'm going broke on PODS storage fees. This has been a total disaster and a money trap. I'll NEVER do this again. Maybe by February '08 they'll have it completed.
God Bless,
