The installers cut out about 6 feet of concrete to create a smooth transition to the garage. The first row of pavers on the garage floor "turndown" are thin pavers and then the rest of the driveway are thick pavers. The first row of thin pavers are under the garage door and gives a nice, finished look. I just resanded and resealed my pavers for $240.

There are some very nice treatments in my neighborhood and they seem to be holding up very well with a top dressing every three or four years. Our pavers fade and need a cleaning and resealing every two years to look real good. Cost is over $400.
