How Do I Know if Sidewalk Patch Work Will Work for Me?

Reasons Patching Your Sidewalk Makes Sense

You might think it isn’t worth it to fix small amounts of damage. But there are several reasons why you should consider it.

• Improved pedestrian safety
• Increases in property value
• Better curb appeal

And while fixing minor issues might seem like avoiding the inevitable, it actually means you can postpone major repairs to your footpaths by extending the life of your sidewalk now.

• Patch work extends the overall lifetime of your existing sidewalks
• Patching a walkway is less expensive than replacing it or making major repairs
• Sidewalk patchwork is quick and causes less disruption than a major sidewalk repair.

Why You Should Care About Minor Sidewalk Damage

Keeping your sidewalks well-maintained now might seem unnecessary, but there’s another compelling reason to fix even minor damage. The law states that property owners are responsible for all sidewalks adjacent to their property. The DOT inspects sidewalks for problems and issues violations. Furthermore, you only have 75 days to repair violations. That’s a compelling reason to get proactive and repair smaller damage before it’s noticed by the city.

Not only will you save money by not having to invest in major repairs, but you will also avoid paying hefty fines. Plus, if someone gets injured as a result of falling due to your damaged walkway, you could be found liable for all sorts of damages. That’s why it makes sense to patch minor sidewalk problems now.
