What changed
This project renewed the finish on existing concrete surfaces around the garage and front entrance. The concrete driveway strip and covered-entry floor received a gray coating, while their existing layout and connections remained in place.
The photographs show the starting surfaces, preparation views and the gray finish alongside the existing asphalt, brick columns and entry edges.

Stage 01
The existing driveway & covered entry
The project brought together a concrete driveway strip and the floor of a covered front entry. The existing slab layout, joints, garage connection and adjoining asphalt defined the surfaces included in the work.
These first views show the concrete before the gray coating, with cleaning equipment and hoses on site. The tan entry floor and driveway surface provide the starting point for the updated finish.

Stage 02
Cleaning & surface preparation
Preparation focused on the existing concrete surfaces. The lighter driveway and entry views show the condition of the slabs before the gray finish was applied.
The concrete sections, joints and boundaries with the asphalt, garage and entry edges remained part of the layout. The work renewed the visible surfaces while keeping those connections in place.

Stage 03
A gray finish for the driveway strip
The concrete driveway strip received a gray surface coating. The finish follows the existing footprint from the garage toward the street, giving that concrete section a more consistent appearance.
The adjoining asphalt and the existing slab divisions remain visible, showing how the refreshed surface connects with the rest of the driveway.

Stage 04
The finished driveway & covered entry
A coordinated gray finish continues along the covered-entry floor, bringing the entrance and driveway concrete into the same color scheme.
