Our precision slicing service is ideal for addressing uneven surfaces and eliminating trip hazards. Using advanced equipment, we smooth out rough patches and level out irregularities, making your sidewalks safer and more visually appealing. This method is effective for both minor adjustments and extensive surface refinishing, ensuring a uniform, hazard-free walkway.
For more targeted repairs, we employ horizontal and vertical slicing techniques. Horizontal slicing is perfect for leveling sidewalks and addressing height discrepancies that can lead to tripping hazards. Vertical slicing allows us to make clean, accurate cuts for repairs and adjustments, such as fixing misaligned sections or creating expansion joints. These methods ensure precise, effective solutions while maintaining the structural integrity of your concrete.
Sidewalk Repair Without Replacement
Most sidewalk trip hazards are caused by a single raised panel: tree roots, soil movement or settling lift one slab above its neighbor. Replacing that concrete means demolition, forming, pouring, curing time and a closed walkway for days. Our patented saw-cutting process removes the raised edge instead, leaving a smooth, slip-resistant slope that meets ADA guidelines, usually in minutes per hazard and with no debris left behind.
Our Sidewalk Repair Process
- Survey: we measure and map every hazard so you get an itemized, documented report. See our sidewalk inspection service.
- Precision cutting: horizontal slicing removes the lip down to a compliant slope, typically 1:8 or better.
- Patching and joints: concrete patching fills spalls and cracks, and expansion joint work prevents future lifting.
- Documentation: before-and-after photos and measurements for every location, which helps reduce sidewalk liability.
Why Property Owners Choose Cutting Over Grinding or Replacement
Compared with tear-out and replacement, precision cutting can cut repair costs significantly, keeps sidewalks open to foot traffic and avoids dust-heavy grinding. The finished surface is smooth and uniform, which is why HOAs, school districts, municipalities, hospitals and commercial property managers use it to stay ahead of ADA compliance requirements.
