The Haberlin Residence. Phase 2.
For this job, the client wanted to fix their concrete garage pad that was sinking due to an incorrect base material used. Which, in this case, was no base material. The original pad was laid right on the soil! If you are from the northeast, you know that we have harsh winters. With constant freeze and thaw, if the correct base material isn't used, you will have sinking and cracking. With concrete and pavers, they are only as strong as their base.
We came in, removed all of the old concrete, dug the appropriate depth down, removed some soil and installed the correct amount of gravel to allow this garage pad to stay in excellent shape for a long time. Finally, we installed approximately 800sf of concrete at a 4in depth!
We also added a walkway leading to our prior stair and drain install. Now, all of the water coming down from their driveway has somewhere to go and won't cause anymore runoff.
