So I just had a new deck built and a new patio poured. Company came well referred, but we've had some issues. I made the mistake of not showing pictures and not being extremely specific about what I wanted. Contractor made some mistakes as well, we'll all live. However, I'm looking at the concrete job as we're discussing final payment and negotiating, mistake and concessions. Today while I was at work, my wife asked about the concrete edge and gaps and he advised her to hire a landscaping company to come build up this edge (which was left a huge mess) or all the gravel / substrate will wash away, keep falling out... Etc. I was under the impression this edge would basically go to the ground... Am I wrong? I didn't think I would have to hire another company to come finish this job?! I was under the impression when they were done, I'd just be able to walk out and enjoy my new patio and deck after 10's of thousands of $$ spent. Is this concrete correct or... I just don't know enough to be sure? Any help, education, advice is greatly appreciated!
