Sidewalks and walkways in Bloomfield
Many of Bloomfield's sidewalks and front walks date to the same building boom as its houses (half built before 1970), and they show it: settled panels, scaling from decades of salt, broken edges at driveway crossings. Bloomfield has everything from single-family streets (62% of homes) to blocks of multi-family buildings, so the work here covers private walks and public frontage alike.
On most Bloomfield streets a replaced panel gets 4–6 inches of compacted processed gravel and 4 inches of air-entrained concrete, with 6 inches where a driveway crosses.
The median home in Bloomfield was built in 1970, newer than the 1960s house that's typical statewide. That's newer than next-door West Hartford (median 1955) and older than Avon (1981).

Sidewalk permits in Bloomfield. Public sidewalks are in the town's right-of-way, so replacing one means a permit and building to the town's detail for thickness, slope and joints. Walkways on your own lot don't usually need one. Roots from public trees are the town tree warden's call before anyone cuts them.

Concrete sidewalks in Bloomfield: questions
Who is responsible for sidewalk repair in Bloomfield?
It depends on Bloomfield's ordinances. State law lets towns put snow-and-ice liability on the abutting owner, and many towns also make owners responsible for repairs. The town's public works or engineering office can confirm the local rule, and we can price the work from any notice you've received.
Do I need a permit for sidewalk work in Bloomfield?
For a public sidewalk, almost certainly: it's in the town's right-of-way. We apply for the permit and build to the town's requirements. Private walkways on your own lot don't usually need one.
Can a lifted panel be fixed without replacing it?
Often. If the panel is in one piece and has just settled, lifting it with foam and sealing the joints costs much less than replacement. If it's broken or pushed up by roots, replacement is the fix.

Yes. We also repair sidewalks in Windsor, Simsbury and West Hartford, and across Hartford County.
