    Ideas for cutting concrete

    Yes. Gutters will be installed next week. I'm sure that will help quite a bit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ideas for cutting concrete

    Here some better pics. Sorry it took so long. I'm starting to agree that it probably won't look so good trying to cut it out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ideas for cutting concrete

    Kevin. Thanks for your opinion. You may be absolutely right. As others have also said, it may turn out looking worse than it did to begin with. One problem is the contractor is my father in law who was working for free. Lol. We did have trouble with concrete guys who did a horrible finish, as...

    Ideas for cutting concrete

    Thanks fellas. I will attach a pic of the entire garage later. The threshold from Home Depot may be a good option to keep water out. The only problem that remains, is the windows on the garage door still sit a little high, and it looks just a little bit awkward. Both the contractor and the...

    Ideas for cutting concrete

    I may add some type of threshold once everything is finished, but one of the problems I'm having is when we get hard rains I'm getting water 1/3 of the way into the garage. The weather stripping on the garage door looks pretty stout but rain still finds its way in. I live in Baton Rouge and...

    Ideas for cutting concrete

    The raised part that you see is the actual garage floor, it does not drop back down. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ideas for cutting concrete

    Threshold is actually a great idea, I didn't think of that. But the problem is there are windows at the top of the garage door and they don't fully come down, so it doesn't look right anyway Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ideas for cutting concrete

    Larry. It was the framers responsibility. The board he used was 3 inches too short. Had it been the right size, the door would have overlapped the ledge. I can take a pic of it later. Unfortunately the framer was already paid, and I just don't feel like going there. Had I caught it ahead of time...

    Ideas for cutting concrete

    I understand cutting down vertically into the concrete to the appropriate depth, but how would I cut horizontally into the side of the ledge to dislodge the piece. An angle grinder? That was my original thought. Was to cut the vertical piece with skill saw and the horizontal piece with angle...

    Ideas for cutting concrete

    Hello guys, we recently built a home and I am planning to epoxy the garage floors. Unfortunately the garage slab was framed incorrectly, where when the garage closes, it lands on top of the concrete floor ledge rather than past it. This allows water to get in to the garage rather easily. I would...
