Garage Day 1: Concrete Prep

I met with five different contractors but only got estimates from two. The most responsive and best priced contractor was Merrill from Budget Garages so I chose him. Merrill had also built a neighbors garage and the neighbor was happy so that gave me some confidence in my choice.

Thursday morning before Labor Day weekend and only a week and a half after signing the contract construction began. On that first day three workers with Riveria concrete showed up before 7 and began prepping the sight with leveling and forms. Luckily I caught them before I went to work because they were doing a 10 foot alley set back and I needed 15 so I could turn into the garage. That same day I came home from at lunch hoping to see what they were doing but they were done and long gone.
