[West Coast GTO]

This is an example of both concrete and plastic ground wells( I called them sleeves). Concrete photo does not show lid. Both are placed to where concrete is to be finished before pouring concrete deck.
You can definitely getting a new rod installed away from the deck but if you use the same ground wire and extend it to a different rod location, the wire must be " irreversible spliced or exothermic welded".
