Driveway Removal

This project was in the hills of Oakland, the driveway had obviously seen better days but the big problem was that at the bottom of the diveway the concrete had sunken and made it extremely difficult to cars to cross. We demolished and removed all of the concrete and built up and compacted the problem area. Upon completion the driveway climbed 1/4 inch per foot for 75 feet making it easy for even the smallest of cars to climb. My bid was 1/2 of the next lowest bid, I guess the other guys don't know how to control their costs.The concrete contractor was just happy because I left the job in such a condition that he was able to just show up at the job, frame and pour. He said normally he has to spend a day or two doing the finish grade.I was able to recycle 20 tons of concrete and 15 tons of dirt and not an ounce of material ended up at the landfill!
