Common Walkway Service Questions

Whether a concrete walkway or sidewalk needs rebar depends on how it will be used. Walkways and sidewalks meant for light foot traffic don’t need rebar, and you can use wire mesh instead. But concrete surfaces that will see heavy machinery will likely need it.

For sand-set installations (as opposed to pavers set in mortar), you can lay a base of gravel, sand, or a combination of both below a paver walkway. These layers provide a strong and stable yet flexible base for your walkway while also assisting with proper drainage. In some cases, the type of paver or paver panels you choose will not require both layers, and just laying sand will be enough.

Concrete walkways cost around $1,800 for 200 square feet. At an average width of 3 feet, that price will likely cover a walkway that’s around 65 feet long. This price is also for walkways that are 4 inches thick. If you need thicker concrete to support vehicle traffic, you will pay more. This price includes the cost of the concrete itself, as well as the cost for delivery and installation.

Yes, a resin bound walkway is considered a durable and safe option for homes. Like resin driveways, resin walkways and pathways are installed using bound aggregates, resin binder, sand, and mixing tools. Many homeowners are worried about adding concrete walkways because they experience a lot of runoff, and resin walkways are highly permeable. This can reduce standing water and slick walkways on your property.

Installing a walkway to your home can add value, as it can make your landscaping look more intentionally designed and boost your overall curb appeal. In addition, walkways can be installed with accessibility in mind, which can be helpful for those with mobility issues or who need a wheelchair.
