Concrete around Simsbury homes
Half of Simsbury's homes were built before 1973, which puts a lot of original driveways, steps and patios at the end of their life at about the same time. Simsbury's housing mixes single-family homes (72%) with condos and multi-family buildings, so work ranges from a homeowner's patio to an association's walks and steps.
Near Talcott Mountain, ledge close to the surface shapes a lot of projects, from footing depths to where a patio can sit.
The median home in Simsbury was built in 1973, newer than the 1960s house that's typical statewide. That's newer than next-door West Hartford (median 1955) and older than Avon (1981).

Permits around the house in Simsbury. 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.

What concrete projects make sense first in Simsbury?
For Simsbury's housing stock, we'd usually look first at concrete driveways, concrete patios and concrete steps. Water and safety items always come before decorative work.
Can you do several projects at my Simsbury home at once?
Yes. Bundling work into one mobilization saves money, and we sequence it so trucks never cross new concrete.

Driveways and patios on your own lot usually don't need a building permit. Aprons and public sidewalks need a town right-of-way permit, and foundations, walls over 4 feet and often new steps at a door need building permits from Simsbury's building department.
