This summer my husband decides to rip
out the driveway. A man sees him doing it and says I'm putting a new driveway
in for your neighbor. I'll make you a deal. I'll charge you X amount of dollars if
you let me do the job today.
Alrighty then ......let's get started.
Our driveway had three layers.
Our driveway had three layers.
It also had a concrete curb. The kind you would see for sidewalks.
Not at all an attractive look for a driveway.
The concrete curb was taking out. We used belgium block to edge our driveway.
It's such a major improvement! Now we really do have curb appeal. :-)
I can now walk in my driveway without tripping.
It's a good thing!
*One day to complete!!!
A world's record for 'This Old House'.

My goodness what a job! Looks awesome though. Have a great day Dee!
Wow, this looks great! You have been busy! I love those day projects! Don't work too hard!
It's amazing how something like a driveway can make such a difference to a house's curb appeal, Dee! I'll bet your hubby was glad he didn't have to do it himself. That's a tough job for a one man crew!
It looks great Dee! I love how quickly it was done and it had to be a true back-saver for your husband!
Have a great day.
