Concrete Driveway Installation in Taylor, MI
Water at the garage door is the problem we solve most in Taylor.
Ask Taylor homeowners what's wrong with their driveway and most of them point at the garage door. Water collects there after every rain, freezes into a sheet in winter and slowly works its way under the door. On flat ground and mid-century lots, the old slab has usually sunk at that end, so the driveway now drains toward the house it was meant to protect.

A Taylor driveway, built from the ground up
Fixing it means rebuilding from the ground up. A lot of Taylor homes date from the 1950s to the 1970s, and the driveways often sit right on lake-plain clay. We remove the old concrete, dig out the soft clay and put back compacted 21AA in lifts. That base is shaped so the new slab falls steadily from the garage toward the street, then we pour with reinforcement and an air-entrained mix.
Taylor is just up the road from our Romulus shop, so we're in town often. We'll measure the fall from your garage to the curb at the free estimate and explain where the water will go on the new slab. We'll also check what the City of Taylor requires for the driveway and approach. Financing is available.
Flat, slow-draining clay left behind by the glacial lakes that once covered most of Wayne County.
Dig out the soft clay, replace it with compacted 21AA aggregate base, and set the slope so water runs off the slab and away from the house.
