Paving and Drainage
Here are photos of a job we completed where waterproofing installed by the original builder had failed and existing drainage installed by the builder was very inadequate and failing. To complete this repair we undertook the following work.
- Lifted concrete pavers over the concrete slab where waterproofing below had failed.
- Lifted pavers laid on clay which had sunken.
- Removed lucky stones which had been placed over clay allowing weeds to grow through.
- Waterproofed the exposed slab.
- Removed inadequate storm water pits and excavated fo lager one piece pits.
- Installed larger storm water pits and grates.
- Formed up then mixed and poured concrete slabs where pavers and stones had been placed on clay.
- Relaid pavers over new slabs and filled surround with higher quality stones salvaged from elsewhere on the same job.
- Re-laid concrete pavers over correctly waterproofed existing slab and rebating larger galvanised steel grates into the relaid pavers.
- All clay and other waste not required was removed from site.

Concrete Stairs Repair
Part of the renovation to a rental property the handrails at the back door steps were wobbly and some stair treads were rocking and sloping. All treads were lifted and re-bedded level on new mortar, new steel posts were bolted to the concrete and new handrails were made from composite ekodeck plank and bolted to the new steel posts.
