 Walkway Concrete Base Preparation

Before concrete can be poured the base area of your walkway project it must be properly prepared. If you have an existing cracked walkway that needed to be replaced the 1st step is to remove the concrete. Concrete removal is typically done with a Bobcat and/or with jackhammers. The broken concrete is then loaded into a dump truck and removed from the job site. If there is no existing concrete then the dirt in the area to be poured needs to be graded and/or excavated to prepare for the ultimate concrete pour. The quintessential element in every concrete job is to get the grade is set so that there is no standing water once the project is complete. To achieve the proper grade a transit, laser, and string lines will be set to determine exactly how the slab will be graded. Once these guidelines are placed the area will be marked with spray paint to replicate the plan you negotiated with your estimator. After the area has been correctly marked, we will form the plan with various sizes of lumber. After the lumber has been installed you will be allowed to approve the walkway plans and designs to the forming of your new walkway.  After the gravel base has been tamped grade stakes will be placed and checked to make sure that a 4 inch area is readied for the concrete pour. To double check everything we typically like to have our clients check the forming process because this represents the size and grade of the finished product. Having the client check the forms will ensure that there is no misunderstandings, because it’s much easier to move forms then the move concrete. One must consider what is the best way to reinforce your concrete slab. The options include welded steel wire mesh, rebar, or residential micro fiberglass, ask your estimator for the proper reinforcement options for your new concrete slab.
