Local Elmwood Park Concrete Service

Mark’s Tuckpointing specializes in a variety of different concrete structure building and repairing for homes and businesses in and around Elmwood Park. Adding a concrete pathway around your home, or a porch and patio, repairing the concrete steps up to your door, or making a patio for your patrons if you are a business can really add a nice touch to your building.  However, every project has to start somewhere and that is with the idea of what you want to build.  If you are considering a building or repair the following things here are some things to think about: 

Concrete Steps –  When you are adding or repairing concrete steps in Elmwood Park you want to first think about the incline grade of the step. Who is this for? If it is for a parent or grandparent you want to make sure there is less area in between each step.  Also, you want to look at the frame you are building the steps out of.  Will the steps sag or sink into the earth on either side? Finally, how wide do you want the steps and where are you going to anchor the banister points into the steps.  This will help you plan out the concrete steps you want to build a lot better and make them safe for the future. 

Concrete Walkway and Path -The first thing to think of is where the path is going to go and then what you are going to build the path out of.  For instance, are you connecting your front yard to the back yard?  How much of your yard are you going to cover?  These are going to impact the way you carve out the path, and where it should go based on the grade of the property. Over time concrete slabs are going to sink into the ground, especially with how much rain Elmwood Park can get in a year, so planning where your walkway is going to go is always the first step. Once the walkway is planned you can determine if you want to go concrete, decorative bricks, and more based on where the walkway will go. 

Concrete Driveways – Concrete driveways are an amazing investment for your home.  Your home’s value actually increases when you have a concrete driveway.  Also sealing an asphalt driveway is a painstaking process that has to be done multiple times during the life of the driveway where a concrete driveway can just be. However, maintenance is the key here to make your concrete driveway last. Stay away from parking on the edges of the driveway. You can seal concrete driveways in order to extend its life. When you carve out the area for the driveway ensure that everything is level and straight.  Finally, definitely consider using a professional concrete service in the area to do the driveway.  They have knowledge and experience that you might not have and cannot get from any online instruction video. It is well worth the money expenditure and the guarantee using a service carries with it. 

Concrete Porches – Due to the construction of the homes in Elmwood Park, Illinois concrete Porches are becoming more and more important.  They are solid and they last awhile which is good. There isn’t really anything heavy sitting or driving over them like a driveway and there isn’t constant use alike with a walkway.  However, now they are starting to crack and crumble because they have lasted for over 40-50 years.  Let us come out and assess the damage and give you the best advice for the future of your concrete porch.  You might consider getting rid of it to create more landscaping are in front of the house or keep it to give you a future place to hang in the future.  At least you can trust us to give you the best options which will let you make the right decisions.
