Sunken concrete in Meriden
Meriden's older neighborhoods (50% of homes predate 1960) have plenty of walks and stoops that have settled over the decades. Many are still in one piece, which makes them good lifting candidates. Meriden's mix of single-family homes (49%) and multi-family buildings means leveling for homeowners and for landlords clearing trip hazards.
With public sidewalks along most of Meriden's streets, lifting is often the quickest way to clear a trip hazard. We check first whether the city accepts lifting on a public walk.
The median home in Meriden was built in 1960, close to the 1960s house that's typical statewide. That's older than nearby Berlin, where the median is 1972.
