Replacement should address the evidence
A settled driveway edge, widespread surface loss and an isolated crack are distinct conditions. The first may involve support, the second the concrete surface, and the third may remain stable.
Where drainage has failed, new elevations need to create a workable route between fixed garage and street connections.
Walks and patios use space differently
A side walk often has to clear gates and utilities within a narrow width. A patio spreads people and furniture across a larger area and needs circulation around chairs. Each should be dimensioned for how it will be used.
Both surfaces must meet the house carefully. Foundation clearance, door height, window wells and downspouts can limit the available profile.
Pads follow the supported item
A shed, mechanical unit and filled spa do not supply the same loading or installation information. Dimensions and manufacturer requirements should be confirmed before the forms are built.
The surrounding yard still needs to drain and the finished item still needs delivery or service access. Those needs can affect pad position as much as the open lawn area.
