What to mark on a driveway sketchGarage thresholdLengthWidth & street approachObservedwater
What to mark on a driveway sketch. This illustrative property sketch identifies useful observations: width, entry transition, street approach and observed water. It is not an actual Foley property or a construction design.

Make a project folder

Include approximate dimensions, a photo from the street, a view toward the house and pictures of any narrow access. Note what you want to use the surface for. Keep measurements clearly labeled as preliminary so they are checked on site.

Record observations without diagnosing

Describe where water collects or where access is difficult. Avoid assuming the cause of a ground or drainage issue. Ask whether the provider can assess it or whether a separate professional is needed. Existing damage does not make repair-only work part of this site’s supported scope.

Keep the next step realistic

When you call, share your exact address, the new-installation request and preferred timing. Ask what information is needed for a useful site discussion and a written proposal.
