Why Your Walkways Matter

Sidewalks and walkways do more than just help you get from point A to point B. They're the first thing guests see when they visit your home. They keep your family safe from tripping hazards. And they protect your landscaping from foot traffic.

A well-built concrete walkway can last 30 years or more with minimal maintenance. That makes it one of the smartest investments you can make in your property. Whether you need a simple path to your front door or an elaborate garden walkway, we handle all types of concrete projects with the same attention to detail.

How We Build Sidewalks That Last

The key to a long-lasting sidewalk is proper preparation. Many contractors rush through the prep work to save time, but that always leads to problems down the road. Here's how we do it right:

  • Site evaluation: We check for drainage issues and identify any problem areas
  • Excavation: Remove old concrete or soil to the proper depth
  • Base installation: Add and compact gravel for drainage and stability
  • Proper grading: Slope the walkway slightly to direct water away from structures
  • Quality concrete: Pour at the right thickness for foot traffic and local conditions
  • Finishing touches: Apply texture for slip resistance and seal for protection

Safety and Accessibility Features

Modern sidewalks need to be safe for everyone, including children, seniors, and people with mobility challenges. We build walkways that meet ADA standards when needed and include features that prevent accidents.

Safety Features We Include

Slip-resistant surfaces: We use broom or textured finishes to provide traction, even when wet. This is especially important near pools or in shaded areas where moisture lingers.

Proper width and clearance: Main walkways should be at least 4 feet wide to allow two people to walk side by side comfortably. We also ensure adequate clearance from walls and landscaping.

Smooth transitions: We carefully match the height of new sidewalks to existing surfaces to eliminate trip hazards. If your current walkway has uneven sections, we can fix those with our repair services.

Make Your Walkway Unique

Plain concrete works great for utility walkways, but you might want something more decorative for highly visible areas. We offer several ways to customize your sidewalks and walkways.

You can add curves and interesting shapes to create visual interest. Borders in contrasting colors or textures define the edges beautifully. Or consider stamped patterns that look like stone, brick, or pavers at a fraction of the cost.

Whatever style you choose, we make sure it complements your home and landscape. The result is a functional walkway that also enhances your property's curb appeal.
