What You Get
Sidewalks are small pours with big consequences. A section that heaves an inch is a trip hazard and, on a city sidewalk, a liability for the homeowner. We pour walks on a compacted base with proper expansion joints so panels move independently and stay flush.
For city sidewalk replacement, most Lake County cities require a permit and inspection of the forms before the pour. We know the process in each city, pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and pour to the city's thickness and width spec.
Front walkways are a curb appeal project as much as a concrete project. We can widen a narrow builder walk, add a gentle curve, or match a stamped patio in the back. Steps are handled on the same job.
