Brooklyn sidewalks take a lot of punishment: freeze and thaw cycles, tree roots, heavy deliveries, winter salt and decades of foot traffic. Cracks open up, flags settle or lift, and edges start to crumble. Left alone, these defects become trip hazards, and trip hazards are exactly what DOT inspectors look for.

When it comes to fixing cracks, uneven surfaces and other damage, our skilled professionals are a remarkable choice for you. We replace only what needs replacing, match the new concrete to the existing sidewalk as closely as possible, and finish the surface so it is safe and comfortable for everyone to use.

Our process

How It Works

Clear steps, a written estimate before any work starts, and a crew that leaves the site clean.

  1. Inspection and estimate

    We look at every flag along your frontage, mark what is defective and give you a written estimate. The estimate is free.

  2. Preparation

    Damaged concrete is broken out and removed, and the sub-base is compacted so the new flags will not settle.

  3. Pouring and finishing

    New concrete is poured to City specifications, with expansion joints and a brushed, slip-resistant finish.

  4. Curing and clean-up

    The area stays taped off while the concrete cures. We leave the site clean and ready to use.

Sidewalk Repair and Maintenance FAQs

Straight answers to what property owners ask us most about this service.

Can a cracked sidewalk be patched instead of replaced?

Small surface cracks can sometimes be sealed, but a flag that is cracked through, lifted or sunken needs to be replaced. Patching with asphalt or thin overlays is not accepted by DOT and is itself listed as a defect.

How long before I can walk on the new sidewalk?

Concrete can usually take foot traffic within a day or two and keeps gaining strength for several weeks. We tell you the exact timing for your job and keep the area protected in the meantime.

What does sidewalk maintenance include?

We offer sealing and regular inspections to extend the life of your sidewalk. Proper maintenance can prevent common issues such as cracking and spalling, and it lets you fix a single flag before an inspector cites the whole frontage.

Does the work come with a warranty?

Yes. We stand by the quality of our work and provide warranties on our services. The duration depends on the specific project, and we give you the details during the consultation.
