OMG Nice guy of you to do that. Poor lady.

I used to work at a batch plant in Sacramento & know ya gotta work fast.

You need to reinforce any large pours with rebar(in a grid shaped pattern wired together) with dobies(little blocks to raise the rebar off the ground) underneath so the concrete can flow underneath & over.

Smoothing & leveling is important. You can also get coloring to put on & stamps to make it look like brick or cobbles.

I would definitely get someone who knows what they are doing to help.

Thanks guys. Going to leave this to the professionals. Ill see if we can get some more quotes or alternatives. Maybe we should stick with gravel to the drive way and cement the walkway which is the size of 2 sheets of plywood end to end?

Glad I asked before I went to load up my Insight with a grand or so of quick creek.

Limestone I am sure would be cheaper.
