It’s not every day you get to see your product used by Mike Rowe – but when we saw Mike and the team from Groundworks using our EZ-PAD in a real life foundation repair, we couldn’t help but grin from ear to ear.
At around the 15:40 mark of the episode, you’ll spot our precast concrete EZ-PAD — affectionately dubbed the “cheese wheel” by the Groundworks crew. It’s a small but mighty moment that perfectly captures what EZ-CRETE is all about: making tough jobs simpler, faster, and more effective.

Why the EZ-PAD Makes Foundation Work... Well, EZ
Let’s be honest — traditional concrete pours for foundation repair can be a logistical nightmare. Between site prep, mixing, pouring, curing time, and cleanup, the “simple” part of the job quickly disappears.
That’s where EZ-CRETE’s EZ-PAD comes in. It’s a precast concrete base engineered to provide the same strength and stability as traditional concrete — but without the mess, wait, or wasted time.
Here’s why pros love it:
- No mixing. No curing. No waiting. Just set it in place and move on to the next step.
- Consistent quality and strength — every EZ-PAD is precision-made for reliability and performance.
- Built to last — designed with durable, high-strength concrete that withstands heavy loads and harsh environments.
- Jobsite efficiency — reduces labor, minimizes downtime, and eliminates dependency on weather conditions for pours.
When time is money, EZ-PAD delivers both savings and peace of mind.
Real-World Problem Solving in Action
The Dirty Jobs episode shows exactly why precast concrete products like the EZ-PAD are changing the game for foundation repair professionals.
Instead of wrestling with ready-mix deliveries or worrying about on-site consistency, Groundworks was able to install a durable, reliable pad in minutes — keeping their crew safe, their project on schedule, and their client happy.
As Mike Rowe said best, “This is a dirty job — but somebody’s got to do it.” And with EZ-PAD, that “somebody” gets to do it smarter, not harder.
Precast Concrete: The Future of Foundation Solutions
The success of EZ-PAD isn’t just about one product — it’s part of a bigger movement toward modern precast solutions that solve real-world challenges.
From foundation repair to electrical infrastructure and EV charging bases, EZ-CRETE’s line of precast products is built for contractors who value efficiency, reliability, and results.
