We’ll be starting with an excavated site and ending up with a 600 square foot permeable driveway area. Along the way, we’ll be covering the industry standard base construction including the use of geotextiles. We will also be demonstrating multiple types of edge restraint options for vehicular traffic.
We’ll be splitting the 600 square feet up into two 300 square foot blocks over the course of two days so there’s sure to be one day that works for you!
For this session, we’ll be partnering with American Stone in Vancouver, WA. Get a chance to learn, ask questions, and network with fellow hardscapers. Lunch will be provided!
