On March 17th we start a driveway installation. With this driveway, Unilock stone was chosen. Most contractors install pavers and stone on a sand & gravel base. But here at G.H. Erickson & Son this is not a lasting process when sand is used. For a driveway to hold up, it must be done with a concrete base. When done right, it will be completely maintenance free. Please examine the following pictures to see from start to finish how a quality driveway is installed using stone. Feel free to contact us for more information.

Tuckpointing is a great way to repair damage to a masonry surface. The largest problem with Tuckpointing is getting it done right. One way is that after grinding the joints, it must be washed out. If not , dust from the grinding will keep the new masonry from adhearing.

We had to come Chicago for some equipment and decided to stop at the shore. Beautiful day!! Chicago does have a lot to offer. It was extremely busy there because that week there was a event that took up about 5 city blocks at the park. It's amazing that they can have some type of order with that many people in one location.
