The Ramirez family’s 1960s slab had spalling, oil stains, and a trip hazard lip at the sidewalk. They contacted CountBricks during a lunch break, hoping for a summer-ready refresh without weeks of disruption.
CountBricks’ estimator pulled parcel data, slope grade, and coastal zone requirements while chatting with Mrs. Ramirez. The system generated a 3-D takeoff, calculated 11.2 yd³ of 3,500 PSI mix, 280 sq ft of stamped border, and all rebar, forming lumber, and sealer—delivered as a mobile-friendly quote before she hung up.
• Demo crew arrived within 48 hours, recycling 14 tons of concrete
• Fiber mesh plus #3 rebar grid provided double reinforcement for surf-side conditions
• Baja Sand integral color blended perfectly with the home’s stucco
• EV conduit sleeve installed underneath—future-proof without extra trenching
• Entire project, from demo to final seal, completed in five working days
The new San Diego driveway boosted the property’s appraised value by $19,000 and eliminated the city citation for sidewalk lift. The Ramirez family rated CountBricks 10/10 for speed, communication, and craftsmanship, now showcased at CountBricks.com/portfolio.
1. Early data capture slashes start-up lag—use voice estimates, not spreadsheets
