Concrete Steps & Sidewalks in Hanover Park, IL
Front steps and walks are our second most common job in the village, and they usually come up because the stoop has visibly separated from the house. On the Greenbrook and Hanover Highlands houses that gap appears because the original stoops were set on compacted fill rather than a footing below the frost line. A full stoop and stair set is priced on its rise and landing size.

Hanover Park specifics
The village permits step and walk replacement, and parkway work is inspected. The 42-inch frost depth is the number that matters on every attached step set here: below it the ground does not freeze, so the footing does not move. We also reset riser heights, because repeated frost movement leaves an uneven top riser.
Questions
Why has my Hanover Park front stoop pulled away from the house?
It was set on fill rather than a footing below the 42-inch frost line. Frost lifts it each winter and it never fully returns, so the gap widens year by year. A footed replacement stops it permanently.
What does a new front stoop and steps cost?
A full stoop and stair set is priced on rise, width, and whether a railing sleeve is set in the pour. Individual steps are quoted by the riser.
Will you fix the uneven top step?
Yes. Repeated frost movement leaves the top riser a different height from the rest, which is the most common cause of falls on residential steps. We reset all the risers equal during replacement.
