Sidewalks, walkways and steps in Boise
Walkways and entry steps take a lot of foot traffic and weather, and cracked or heaved sections are a real trip hazard. Replacing them is usually a quick job, and new steps can be built to a safer, more even rise.

Boise gets hot, dry summers and cold winters with plenty of nights that freeze and thaw again by afternoon.
Freeze-thaw is what wears concrete out here. Ask for an air-entrained mix and proper control joints, and seal it every few years.
Driveway approaches and anything in the street right-of-way in Ada County go through ACHD (Ada County Highway District), which needs its own approval and a permit before work starts. A good contractor handles that for you.
Common questions
Who fixes the public sidewalk in front of my house?
It depends on the city. In many places the abutting property owner is responsible, and work in the right-of-way needs a permit. Your contractor can check.
Can steps be repaired instead of replaced?
Small chips and edges can be patched. Steps that have settled, cracked through or pulled away from the house usually need replacing.
How long before I can drive on a new driveway?
Usually about a week for a car, longer for anything heavy. Your contractor will tell you for your mix and the weather.
