"Ben removed old concrete sidewalk slabs, installed a French drain to collect ground and downspout water so that we no longer have foundation flooding. He also replaced the old concrete with a beautiful flagstone walkway which drains and is beautiful. Ben is a thoughtful, knowledgeable problem solver! We highly recommend Soil Friends Excavating. "

"The guys did a nice job leveling the old concrete floor in my garage. There were quite a few cracks for them to work around. I'm hopeful that this repair will fix, or at least minimize, the problem that I've had with water pooling in the front corner of the garage and stabilize the foundation in the right front corner."

Patios questions, answered by experts

Whether a concrete walkway or sidewalk needs rebar depends on how it will be used. Walkways and sidewalks meant for light foot traffic don’t need rebar, and you can use wire mesh instead. But concrete surfaces that will see heavy machinery will likely need it.

Alternative landscaping materials similar to pea gravel include wood chips, decomposed granite, crushed stone, and pebbles. You can also invest in specialty landscape rocks such as quartz, river rock, lava rock, and Mexican beach pebble. While many of these stones will cost more than pea gravel, some are more ideal for designing an attractive garden bed or managing drainage.

A terrace is a flat area that’s raised slightly above ground level while a patio is built at the same level as the door leading into the house. Because of this, terraces usually aren’t connected to the living areas of a home but are commonly found around pools and fire areas. 

If you don’t put gravel under concrete, the concrete can crack, sink, bow, or crumble. Even the concrete forming process will not go as smoothly if you are working directly on the soil or bare bedrock. The lack of a proper gravel layer can also lead to drainage issues below your slab, leading to water issues throughout your lawn and around your foundation.

You should put gravel that is 3/4 to 1 inch under a concrete slab. However, depending on the project, local building codes may dictate the proper gravel size and shape. Some concrete slabs that do not hold significant weight may have a subbase of sand. Also, keep in mind that the subbase you choose will affect the cost of your concrete patio, walkway, or driveway.
