Concrete Sidewalks & Walkways

Build Pathways That Last

Your sidewalks and walkways serve an important purpose. They guide visitors to your front door, connect different areas of your property, and add structure to your landscape. When they are cracked, uneven, or poorly designed, they create safety hazards and hurt your home's appearance.

At KwikCrew Vallejo Concrete, we build concrete sidewalks and walkways that combine safety, durability, and good looks. Whether you need to replace a damaged city sidewalk, create a garden path, or build a walkway from your driveway to your front door, we handle every detail from planning to finishing.

We understand local building codes and ADA requirements for public sidewalks. We also know how to create attractive residential walkways that complement your home's style and landscape design.

Safety and Accessibility

A good sidewalk or walkway should be safe for everyone who uses it. That means proper slope for drainage, adequate width, smooth transitions, and a slip-resistant surface. Here is what we focus on:

• Proper grading: We ensure walkways slope away from buildings for drainage while maintaining safe, comfortable walking surfaces.
• Adequate width: Residential walkways should be at least 3 feet wide for comfortable passage. Main walkways to front doors are often 4 to 5 feet wide.
• Smooth transitions: We create level transitions at doorways, driveways, and other intersections to prevent trip hazards.
• Slip-resistant finish: We use textured finishes like broom or light stamping to provide traction, especially important in wet weather.
• ADA compliance: For commercial properties or public sidewalks, we follow ADA guidelines for slope, width, and accessibility.
• Proper thickness: Sidewalks need at least 4 inches of concrete over a compacted base for long-term durability.

Design Options

Your walkways do not have to be plain gray concrete. We offer several options to create pathways that enhance your property:

Decorative Borders: Add contrast with colored or stamped borders along the edges of your walkway. This simple detail adds visual interest without significant cost.

Stamped Patterns: Create the look of brick, stone, or pavers with stamped concrete. This gives you a custom appearance at a lower cost than individual pavers. See our full range of decorative concrete options.

Colored Concrete: Integral color or stains can match your home's exterior or create attractive contrast with your landscaping.

Exposed Aggregate: This textured finish reveals natural stones in the concrete mix, creating an attractive, slip-resistant surface that hides dirt and wear.

Curves and Shapes: Walkways do not have to be straight lines. We can create curved paths, wide areas for seating or planters, or interesting shapes that follow your landscape design.

Residential and Commercial Services

We handle both residential and commercial sidewalk and walkway projects. For homeowners, we build front walkways, garden paths, side yards connections, and decorative pathways. For business owners and property managers, we construct ADA-compliant public sidewalks, parking lot walkways, and building entry paths.

We are experienced with city permit requirements and inspection processes. If you need to replace or repair a public sidewalk in front of your property, we handle all the paperwork and coordinate with local building departments.

Our team works efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine or business operations. We keep the work area clean, mark wet concrete clearly, and provide safe detours when necessary.
