Hi,

I get a 1m x 50cm pool of water collecting on my driveway every time
it rains. The pool is near my front door so is very inconvenient.
The driveway is made from concrete. The garage is right next to the
front door and hence the driveway forms access to the house as well.

I have thought of raising the level of the driveway at this point, but
I'm not sure what to use. I guess a thin layer of concrete on top of
the existing material would just crack in no time.

There is a drainage channel right in front of the garage door but the
driveway slopes down slightly for a few feet before sloping up towards
the road. The driveway also slopes sideways so the water from the
lowest point of the drive flows in front of the main entrance to the
house :-(

I know the best solution would be to replace the whole drive but I
cannot afford this at the moment!

What's the easiest/cheapest way to fix this?

TIA, Mark.
