Default Driveway enlarged

Hello to all - First of all, Happy Thanksgiving...

I have read threads concerning enlarging the driveway so you can drive out of the golf car garage without making a huge turn...can't seem to find those threads now so I am asking for direction.

Would like to know if you have enlarged your driveway to accomodate the golf car garage - who you have used...recommendations...approximate costs - suggestions?

Thanks in advance - If anyone can throw in pictures of finished product - would be great

I just had mine done by Robert Robey Concrete & Masonry from Lady Lake.
352-753-2462. Very nice job. My neighbor had him do theirs a couple months ago and his work is excellent. He fits the small jobs between his larger ones.
Cost: around $1100. You will need to have the Archtectural Review Commitee approve the alterations which only takes about 1 wk. Office is in Laurel Manor just off 466.
Sorry but I am not savvy enough to figure out how to post pictures, but you can drive by 880 Folkstone Way in Hemmingway to see the work.

If anyone has any recent info/recommendations regarding the extension of a golf cart driveway, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

We had ours enlarged at Design. I really feel this was $$ well spent.

I know the time will come when we need the extra parking for visitors or need the extra space to navigate around a parked car etc. (Not to mention the fact that one of these days we may need the extra space to navigate the golf cart due to age and decreased reflexes etc...) (Not us!!!!)
