Client Location: Brooklyn, NY
Service Provided: New Driveway Installation
Client Observation
A homeowner in Brooklyn, NY, contacted Zavza Seal LLC with concerns about their deteriorating driveway and connecting walkway. The existing concrete was cracked, uneven, and becoming a safety hazard. The client wanted a durable, long-lasting solution to improve both the appearance and functionality of their driveway and walkway under the front stairs.
Diagnosis by Zavza Seal LLC Team
Upon inspecting the property, the Zavza Seal LLC team identified that the driveway’s existing concrete was compromised due to poor substrate preparation and years of wear and tear. The cracks and uneven surface indicated issues with the underlying soil compaction, which required proper leveling and reinforcement. To provide a lasting solution, a complete replacement of the driveway and walkway was necessary.
Proposed Solution
Zavza Seal LLC proposed a comprehensive solution to ensure the new driveway would be durable, safe, and visually appealing. The plan included:
- Removing the existing concrete to address the underlying issues.
- Compacting the substrate to create a solid foundation.
- Installing angular gravel to level the substrate and ensure proper drainage.
- Pouring a 5-inch thick concrete slab reinforced with heavy wire mesh for additional strength.
- Applying a non-skid broom finish to enhance safety and prevent slipping.
- Reconstructing the connecting walkway under the front stairs for a cohesive look.
Implementation
- Demolition and Removal: The team began by removing the old, cracked concrete from both driveways and the connecting walkway.
- Substrate Preparation: The substrate was compacted to ensure stability and prevent future shifting.
- Gravel Installation: Angular gravel was laid down and thoroughly compacted to provide a level and well-drained base.
- Concrete Pouring: The team poured a 5-inch thick layer of heavy wire-reinforced concrete, ensuring durability and strength.
- Finishing Touch: A non-skid broom finish was applied to enhance safety, especially in wet conditions.
The team provided all labor, materials, and equipment, ensuring the project was completed efficiently and to the highest standards.
