Brian's RV Pad

February 19, 20251 min read

This project involved the careful installation of a dedicated RV pad at Brian's home, executed with the precision and attention to detail that Next Gen Hardscapes is known for. From the initial stages of grass removal and soil preparation to the final concrete pour, every step was conducted with a focus on a clean, level surface and durable build meant to handle the weight and usage demands of an RV.

Working in Riverton, Utah, the team began with marking and excavating the area to optimal depth and drainage standards, then compacting a solid base layer. The final concrete pour showcases the craftsmanship's fit and finish — smooth, even, and precisely edged — creating a hardscape that combines utility with professional quality that will last for years to come.

Base layout takes shape with initial soil staking and pre-excavation markers set along the RV pad’s future footprint.
