The utilities are underground, but I suspect nothing in the area I want to pave. I'll get my chance soon to actually speak to the daughter. I want to ask her if she knows, why did they build up the dirt four feet around two sides of the garage. It has nothing to do with the landscape. Her Dad built the garage and then passed a year later. No on has ever used it explaining why there isn't a oil spot or bench or cabinet in it. Like a NEW garage, couldn't be happier!!
