Concrete Driveways in Bent Tree
Bent Tree sits on rolling ground where the approach grade and where water goes matter more than anything else in the plan. Getting slope and drainage right here prevents most of the failures we are called to correct elsewhere.

- Surface runoff crossing approaches during spring melt
- Extended snow retention on shaded sections

How Monument conditions apply
Conditions range from sandy sections to clay influenced soils, with organic material common on treed lots. Pine duff and topsoil are removed rather than compacted in place, because organics under a slab decompose and leave voids.
Elevation means a longer winter and more transitions across freezing in a season. Snow stays on driveways longer, particularly on north facing and treed lots, which keeps slabs saturated through the freeze cycles that do the damage.
