Concrete around East Haven homes
Half of East Haven's homes were built before 1966, which puts a lot of original driveways, steps and patios at the end of their life at about the same time. East Haven's housing mixes single-family homes (69%) with condos and multi-family buildings, so work ranges from a homeowner's patio to an association's walks and steps.
Shoreline lots near Long Island Sound add salt exposure and, in flood zones, elevation rules to the list.
The median home in East Haven was built in 1966, close to the 1960s house that's typical statewide. That's newer than next-door New Haven (median 1952) and older than Branford (1972).

Permits around the house in East Haven. Driveways, patios and walks on your own lot usually don't need a building permit, though zoning can apply. Aprons and public sidewalks are town right-of-way work with a permit. Foundations, walls over 4 feet and many new steps at a door need building permits. We sort out which apply before we price.
