Well, here we are in the midst of summer. Our days seem like they are running twice as fast as they were a week ago. In anticipation of our big move adventure, we have so many projects we need to finish. One of the major projects we needed to finish was some concrete work next to the single attached garage. It was originally filled with 18" x 18" red colored paver stones. Over the years of being in place they eventually settled. After the last major storm that blew through, we had noticed some water on the floor in the garage. DH & DW discussed what & how we should handle this. We both decided that we had to investigate. After removing a few of the paver stones, we noticed that a trail of water had carved a river-sized trough under the stones running to the lowest point and eventually seeping into the block and draining into the garage. We decided it was time to remove all the paver stones and fill the whole area full of concrete eliminating any chance of this happening again. We hired our friends from Workbench INC in Owatonna, MN to tackle the job. Once again, we were delighted at how great it turned out. (See our blog of the bathroom remodel.) These guys are so good at what they do, we wish they were going with us! Below are the pictures of the events that unfolded.

The dirt needed to be removed to allow the fill stone to be shoveled into place.

Pouring and moving the concrete begins.
Just about filled with concrete.
Working the concrete to it's finished curing state. The finished product turned out better than we could have expected. The guys at Workbench INC have successfully helped us with another project that they went above and beyond, making sure it was finished to the utmost perfection. DH & DW recommend this company to take care of ANY projects big or small that you may have. Guess it's on to the next project. : ) Workbench INC to the rescue!
