I had my asphalt resurfaced by Groupe A1 and they did an outstanding job from start to finish.
The first team came to excavate my parking lot. They put a geotextile fabric on the bottom and filled it with 0-3/4 fill, compacted it well and leveled it, creating the right slopes for proper water drainage.
A second, equally competent and professional team came to do the actual asphalting.
The result is really perfect. The employees are very kind and very cooperative in their teamwork. Many thanks to Groupe A1.
The price of a concrete sidewalk depends on several factors:
Total surface area
Required thickness
Excavation depth
Site accessibility
Preparing the foundation
A simple residential sidewalk will cost less than a commercial sidewalk requiring a reinforced foundation.
The best way to get an accurate price is to get a detailed quote on site.
A properly installed concrete sidewalk, with a properly compacted foundation, can last a lifetime. 15 to 25 years or more.
Longevity depends mainly on :
The quality of soil preparation
Slope and drainage management
Concrete thickness
Maintenance
Incorrect installation can halve service life.
For a residential pedestrian sidewalk, the standard thickness is generally 4 inches.
For commercial sidewalks or other high-traffic areas, a greater thickness may be recommended, depending on the intended use.
Thickness must always be adapted to the load and type of floor.
As a general rule :
Light walking: 24 to 48 hours
Heavy traffic: several days
Maximum strength: approx. 28 days
Respecting the curing time is essential to avoid cracking and premature weakening.
Cracks are often caused by :
A poorly compacted foundation
Missing or incorrectly positioned control seals
Poor water management
Freeze-thaw cycles
An experienced contractor considerably reduces these risks through careful installation.
Concrete offers :
A uniform surface
Low maintenance
Generally more affordable
High durability
The uni-pad allows :
A more decorative design
A more localized repair
Aesthetic flexibility

Yes.
Depending on the condition of the concrete, localized repair may be possible.
However, if the foundation is compromised, a complete overhaul is often recommended to ensure long-term stability.
Duration depends on surface area and site conditions.
A standard residential sidewalk can often be completed in just a few days, including preparation and pouring.
