Concrete finishers pour, form, spread and float finished surfaces along with edging and cut the joints of poured concrete. These specialized workers finish top surfaces of concrete using tools such as brooms, smooth trowels and water to create the desired texture. This task includes inspecting finished concrete and removing imperfections. Concrete finishers place forms to control where concrete is being poured and help spread the concrete as it’s being poured to ensure the finished result will be level.

Concrete finishers inspect finished concrete, patch holes, and fix imperfections after concrete has finished setting. They also make repairs to old concrete by filling cracks, replacing damaged areas, and refinishing surfaces. Concrete finishers clean and maintain all their tools, replacing tools and tool parts as needed. These professionals typically work as part of a construction crew in a collaborative, team environment and report directly to their project managers or foremen while maintaining safety standards at all times.
