Replacing this old sinking brick walkway

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.

You Guys Do Incredible Work

[@ChiefsFan62]

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

[@srmcontracting]

Thank you, its definitely a big upgrade

[@tylerm9528]

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.

[@srmcontracting]

Thank you

[@Zalchops]

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.

[@atch_n_sons]

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

[@srmcontracting]

Thank you

[@johnm7554]

nice work! I like how it curves into the driveway

[@srmcontracting]

Thanks, I was worried about how that transition would look.

[@itzcaseykc]

Nice job. Looks much better than it did before.

[@mhos5730]

Such great attention to detail. love your guys' work.

[@srmcontracting]

Thanks

[@Gavrila_Lomakin]

Отличная работа, парни👍

[@uoobwatcher]

I use the same foam kneeling pad.

[@josephrottina1901]

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

[@srmcontracting]

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.

[@annamaria8953]

Sehr schön gemacht.

[@pauljoseph8338]

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

[@srmcontracting]

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.

[@jfleming8311]

Nice work!.......does freeze/thaw affect those edging spikes?....gradually popping up.....

[@srmcontracting]

Thanks, no issue with that

[@austinking2280]

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

[@srmcontracting]

Yes 3/4 no fines

[@youyoungchae3906]

깔끔하게 잘하시네요.ㅎㅎㅎ

[@rodriguezadventures865]

How much did this cost as far a break down material and labor would be nice add on.

[@yamahondazuki95]

Do you have a link to the rubber pad used on your compactor?

[@manjarikapashi9195]

As well what border paver did you use

[@manjarikapashi9195]

What techno bloc pavers did you use

[@srmcontracting]

Main pavers are Eva and border is Villagio both in the Champlain Grey color

[@larrygwinn6649]

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

[@srmcontracting]

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

[@matteoricci1449]

great video would u ever get a bobcat exavator?

[@srmcontracting]

Thank you, I don't have any personal experience with them but if the price was right I would.

[@stickyhood]

How much is a the job would like a break down please

[@deerslayer4204]

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.

[@justinsimon4368]

Why don’t you go help him then

[@deerslayer4204]

@@justinsimon4368 i just did

[@janalaney6585]

Just found your channel, gorgeous work!! Love the commentary but hate the music, one or the other is fine cause I can watch it on mute but I’d like to hear what you have to say😃

[@tommcl8548]

👊👍

[@Inatehigger113]

invest in "knee savers" its what catchers use in baseball, your knees will thank you

[@nathanlothamer4570]

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

[@Simplirite]

Maybe the home owner wanted something new? Maybe they bought the house like that and never like the brick and wanted this instead? Is it your house?
