Can steep driveways be poured in concrete?

Yes. A heavier broom finish or other texture improves traction, and the contractor will plan joints and drainage for the slope.

Does the Borough of Phoenixville regulate sidewalks?

Pennsylvania boroughs typically set sidewalk standards and owner responsibilities. Contact the borough for current requirements before replacing a public sidewalk.

Are row homes harder to work on?

Access can be tighter, which may mean smaller equipment or pumping concrete, but replacing front steps and walks on row homes is routine work.

Older housing stock

Many borough homes date to the late 1800s and early 1900s. Front stoops, steep steps and narrow walkways are common, as are sidewalks lifted by mature trees. Replacement work often involves careful demolition near old foundations and tight spaces between homes.

Hills and drainage

Parts of Phoenixville sit on slopes leading down to the creek and river. Steep driveways need a textured finish for traction, and steps and walks should be pitched so water does not freeze on treads. Discuss trench drains or grading where water runs toward a garage or basement.
