What to record
- Show the closed door, apron edge and driveway in one view.
- Note where water collects and whether the adjoining pavement has moved.
- Include prior repairs and any seasonal change in the door seal contact.
The decision to discuss
Ask how the repair will meet the existing driveway without creating a new raised edge. Changing the apron elevation can affect both the garage and outside drainage. The proposal should identify these relationships before the finish is selected.
Why the surrounding context matters
Joints can serve different purposes in a concrete assembly. The work should identify the actual junction and how the retained surfaces relate to it. A filled line and a functioning joint are different observations; ask for the intended detail before approving the finish.
Further background: NRMCA: joints in slabs on grade. This general background does not diagnose your property.
