I have my supplier make a custom rake trim to fit the measurement needed.

Call the folks at F M Supply http://www.fmsupply.net/main.php in Chambersburg, they have been in the business a long time. Good people. 717-267-3799

Ours is at the local hardware store. http://www.beck-benedicthardware.com

How about replace with Kleer board or Koma or one of the other PVC trim boards?

Another option, virginiamarble.com We install a lot of these, look great and last forever.

www.potomacgaragesolutions.com Does anyone have any experience with this company, I am a contractor considering expanding. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks

Our local contractor rental place has power screeds in various lengths. Basically a hand held vibrating screed.

I believe you are mistaking a power trowel for a power screed. The screed levels the concrete to the desired grade, the trowel produces the finish.

I have never tried the bits danski referred to, they may be a good option. Just make sure you used the correct size, too small and the tapcon will break off, of course too large and no grip. Good luck. Joel

You really need to get a hammer drill, I am a contractor and use tapcons a lot, it is false economy to try to drill without a good hammer drill. The bits will overheat and dull quickly using a regular drill. Spend the money for a good drill you won't regret it. Joel

Be careful about copper sleeved in pvc, our local water authourity guy has seen copper in pvc cause corrosion of the copper due to chemical reaction. Joel
