No, it is not advisable to put a concrete walkway over a drainfield. Doing so can restrict airflow and water movement, which are essential for the proper function of the septic system. Additionally, the weight of the concrete can compress the soil, potentially leading to system failure. It's best to keep walkways and other structures away from drainfields to ensure their effectiveness and longevity.

How do I put in a concrete driveway?
Dig out app. 10 inches of soil. Fill 6 inches of hardpack (crushed concrete). This is for drainage and frost heave prevention. Bring in the concrete truck after renting floats and trowels and building frame. The whole driveway should be surrounded by 1X wood or PVC particle board sprayed with wd 40. The side of the 1X facing away from the concrete should have spikes in the ground and fastened to the board. You level the concrete to the top of these boards. It's like a big frame surrounding the project and you should take your time in building it, for level, runoff and evenness. Have a wheelbarrel and a few extra hands ready (the driver charges by the minute after a certain amount of time). The concrete should be fiber reinforced mix. This type eliminates the need for metal screening or fencing over the hardpack and suspended in the concrete for strength. Be advised, if you're in a snowy region, salt will be your only advisary, don't use it, salt eats concrete. You also need to put in stress gaps from side to side every 8 feet or more depending on width. When the concrete cracks it will crack along these lines. You do this when the concrete starts setting up but is still soft. Finish trowel all the edges. Screen the concrete with a long board across the width (from board top to board top and then use the float to smooth it. Keep a few wheel barrells full of concrete ready so you can get rid of the truck and still have concrete for leveling and fill after a majority of the concrete has been shovelled in. A tool rental agency may have tips and advice also.

Can you put more concrete on top of old concrete?
Yes, if the base is stable the new layer will bond and create a new, fresh surface.An unstable base will give bad results. You should pressure wash the old concrete to get rid of loose and spalling concrete and you should use a bonding agent to serve as a primer to get the new layer to bond well to the old.Obviously, if the new concrete is laid over concrete that is subsiding because of a sinking foundation, the new concrete will crack. You need to stabilize the old concrete before pouring new over it.If you put new over old, it needs to be at least a couple inches thick else it will not cure properly. If you simply want to improve the surface, there are special self-levelling concrete mixes that can be poured thinner and still be strong. Take a look at the link below for a good how-to.
