01
Private walkways
Front walks and garden paths are usually about 3 to 5 feet wide and 4 inches thick. A gentle curve, a wider landing at the door and a slight cross-slope for drainage make a walk feel finished and keep ice from forming puddles.
02
Public sidewalks in boroughs
In many Pennsylvania boroughs, including several in Chester County, property owners are responsible for the sidewalk in front of their property and may receive a notice to repair uneven or broken sections. Municipalities often set width, thickness, slope and curb-ramp requirements and may require a permit or inspection. Always check your municipality's current sidewalk ordinance before work begins.

Fixing trip hazards
Raised or sunken slabs are common where tree roots grow or the base has washed out. Depending on the cause, a contractor may grind a small lip, replace individual sections, or address roots and drainage before pouring new slabs.
04
Cost factors
Length and width, removal of old concrete, tree-root work, steps or grade changes along the path, curb ramps on public sidewalks and decorative borders all affect pricing. Permit and inspection fees vary by municipality.
