  • Replacing this old sinking brick walkway - This old walkway was sinking because of drainage issues. We installed a new Techo Bloc paver patio at a higher elevation and extended the downspouts away from the house.

    Wow, that looks nice! Glad to see the trip hazard is gone. It really improved the curb appeal!

    Nicely done, looks like the home owner got a lot of value from your work

    Beautiful work! I would strongly suggest using concrete for your border restraint. It’s a fraction of the cost, and holds up much better than the plastic edging.

      I was wondering how the plastic would hold up when someone was edging their lawn with a weed whacker/eater. Figured it would get chopped up after a little while.

    Great job brother. How come you don’t use mortar for the edging instead of the plastic?👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

    • @srmcontracting
      @srmcontracting  Місяць тому +1

      Thanks man, I've had issues with grass not growing back over the concrete edge. The plastic seems to hold up as long as its backed by dirt.

    Hi, there should be at least 6 inches of foundation exposed to prevent damage to the structure

    • @srmcontracting
      @srmcontracting  Місяць тому +1

      That would be ideal, but the grading of his front yard would not allow it. Previously the dirt came all the way up to the bottom of the siding. Now there's about 1.5 - 2" gap so it's definitely an improvement. Thanks for the comment

    Nice work! Could you explain what you did with the downspout extensions? Looked like they just terminated in the middle of the lawn. Thanks!

      Thank you, yes we put in pop up drains in the middle of the yard. The yard has a good pitch from this point to the street.

    Great job, however, you need to be using a concrete edge on open graded bases. Those spikes are not capable of toeing in pavement with open graded base.

  • @austinking2280

    What do you use for your base? Like a #9 limestone? (3/4 with no fines)

    Will never understand why you rip out perfectly good bricks and not reuse them. They just need cleaned.
