Concrete around Windsor homes
Half of Windsor's homes were built before 1969, which puts a lot of original driveways, steps and patios at the end of their life at about the same time. 77% of Windsor's homes are single-family detached and 82% are owner-occupied, so most residential work here is homeowners planning a project, sometimes several at once.
Homes here with foundations poured from the early 1980s on should rule out pyrrhotite before any major foundation work; see our crumbling foundations guide. On the Lake Hitchcock clays under parts of Windsor, drainage and base depth decide how long any slab lasts.
The median home in Windsor was built in 1969, close to the 1960s house that's typical statewide. That's newer than next-door Windsor Locks (median 1960) and older than South Windsor (1980).

Permits around the house in Windsor. 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.

Residential concrete in Windsor: questions
What concrete projects make sense first in Windsor?
For Windsor's housing stock, we'd usually look first at concrete foundations, concrete driveways and concrete patios. Water and safety items always come before decorative work.
Can you do several projects at my Windsor home at once?
Yes. Bundling work into one mobilization saves money, and we sequence it so trucks never cross new concrete.
Do I need permits for residential concrete in Windsor?
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 Windsor's building department.
Do you do residential concrete near Windsor?
Yes. We also do residential concrete in Bloomfield, Windsor Locks and South Windsor, and across Hartford County.
