Sunken concrete in New Britain
New Britain's older neighborhoods (57% 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. In New Britain's multi-family buildings, a settled walk or stoop is a tenant safety issue. Lifting fixes most trip hazards in a few hours without tearing anything out.
With public sidewalks along most of New Britain'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 New Britain was built in 1956, older than the 1960s house that's typical statewide. That's older than nearby Newington, where the median is 1967.
