Concrete Contractor services in Oak Park
Ask about concrete in Oak Park and you will hear about cracked approaches and tired front walks. The city filled in quickly after the Second World War, so most blocks are rows of brick ranches and small colonials on narrow, even lots, many with a single driveway running back to a detached garage. Those long, thin driveways take a beating. Cars back over the same strip for decades, the soil under them is dense clay that holds meltwater, and winter brings plowed slush full of salt right up to the apron. The usual result is a driveway broken into pieces near the garage and scaled near the street. Old sidewalks are often lifted by the big boulevard trees. On lots this narrow, the crew has to plan where the truck parks and how the concrete reaches the back of the yard, sometimes with a pump or wheelbarrows.
