Concrete Over an Existing Driveway: Overlay Questions
Pouring new concrete over an existing driveway is not automatically a workable repair. The old slab, base, drainage and added height all affect the decision. Gather repair records and describe cracks or uneven areas without assigning a cause. A review should explain what would be retained, what remains unknown and why the proposed approach fits.
Concrete Driveway Planning: Vehicles, Drainage, Access
Plan a driveway around the vehicles and movements it must accommodate. Include turning, parking, gates and the connection to the street, alongside drainage and existing conditions. Record what you know before comparing construction proposals. The responsible professionals must establish design details, loads and any requirements at the public interface.
