Driveway Does a Do Si Do

After 25 years of having a cracked driveway, we replaced it last month.   Allan and his trusty Bobcat had fun crushing it like a graham cracker fulfilling years of frustration.

A few days after it had originally been poured, the brick layer drove on it.  Soon after the cracks began.  We were mad, but couldn't prove the cause of it. 

To the rescue came the flatwork guys. The place was a beehive of activity, with one cement truck unloading and another one waiting a short distance away.  Glad to have a week of cool days and rain, it cured nicely this time. 


No more snow shovels getting caught on a ridge. No more uneven areas. No more money to spend this year.

 
Sporting a sign saying 'Driveway Replacement - Call Alan or Doug' was stuck in the lawn hoping to generate business for more. It appears to be working because several people have called.   We hope to snag some work from our new sample.

Now that we can use our lovely, clean driveway again, the garage doors need a new paint job. It looks like the domino affect has begun.
