A p, we bought a fairly new 15 year old home and it’s amazing how many mistakes/failures the builders did. Slowly when we find an issue we fix it. Sometimes we find new issues when we fix one. I’d love to rebuild but it’s just too expensive especially on such a new home. I suppose every home has issues and we need to maintain them. Nothing lasts forever.

Shawn, you did the right thing for Patti. I have seen jobs that were done half assed and had to be re done. I have electrician and plumbers that I'm friends with as well as building contractors who were called in to do a total re-work of the job, rip out what is there and start again. We all feel bad about the customer having to pay twice for a job. The scariest ones are when a homeowner calls in someone who isn't a licensed electrician to do work, but the "electrician" never said he wasn't licensed. That could result in someone getting hurt or dead. Homeowners, check out the prospective contractor. Are they licensed if required, insured and references? Ask your friends and neighbors, if you don't, that job could cost you 2 or 3 times what it should.

For what it's worth, there actually was another (much, much worse) option that didn't require replacing the old driveway. I have the unfortunate experience to know that it is entirely possible to misuse a concrete grinder to regrade concrete. As to why I know this, the short version is unsupervised concrete guys sloped FROM a 2" higher floor drain stub out for a new ADA bathroom in a commercial building. Since the new pour was properly rebar stitched to the existing foundation, the building inspector gave us two options. Either get full engineering plans and signoffs to cut out 18" past the ends of the rebar which was under a load bearing block wall, or "find another way." So yes, I learned that it is absolutely possible to regrade concrete without replacing it. It is an extremely slow, loud, and dusty hell, but it is possible. As a side note, sometimes it's better to just say no when friends ask for your help with construction projects...

Picture a city water tower that's 150 feet tall and full of water. No pumps are needed to release that water because gravity will do the work. Now to obtain our water pressure, you must connect the downspout gutter directly to the sealed drain pipe. This will give the needed water pressure from the height advantage of the gutter water. This height advantage will allow gravity to do the work of moving the water. If your water pipe has a 3 foot terrain obstacle to clear, when you are connected to an 8 foot pipe full of rain water...this will give you a five foot advantage to force the water to flow over that 3 foot terrain obstacle. No pumps needed to move the water...just like the water towers found in rural towns.

I cant remember what i said on that video, probably similar to what im gonna ask, but.. Instead of tearing the whole thing down wouldnt it have been possible to add a slope to the existing concrete with a slight concrete layer that would have angled the water away from the house? Granted it would still be above where it should have been.. but there has to be many cheaper ways to keeping water away that doesnt involve replacing the whole thing.. Not to say that Replacing it and it being PROPER from the start is a bad thing.. Like for example, isnt there some type of equipment that would allow you to slice a thin or so layer of concrete off to correct a grade?
@GCFD2 жыл бұрын
I completely understand where you're coming from here. I went through the same thing. Another layer of concrete would leave the sill plate and siding below grade.

If some special masonry saw existed that could get into the orientation required to cut thin slices parallel to the top of the concrete, then cutting it might work i just don’t think thats very feasible (all i can imagine are concrete chunks flying around everywhere at ridiculous speeds) the concrete would need to be resurfaced after as it would become very slippery after the cut.
