Uneven concrete walkway — New York, New York
Sunken or heaved concrete walkway slabs create trip hazards, collect standing water, and reduce curb appeal. The problem is typically caused by soil erosion, tree root growth, or freeze-thaw cycles that shift the sub-base. A concrete mason can level the slabs through mudjacking or polyurethane foam lifting, or replace severely damaged sections with new concrete or pavers.
