Concrete Patio in Mount Prospect, IL
Mount Prospect patio work reflects how old the housing is. Near downtown the 1920s to 1950s houses have small rear yards, often with a detached garage taking a share, so the design is about fitting a usable surface into what is left. In both areas the original rear slab has usually settled toward the house, which contributes to basement seepage.

Mount Prospect specifics
The village permits patios and slabs and reviews added impervious surface. On the narrow lots near downtown a mixer cannot reach the rear yard, so concrete is pumped or wheeled and the neighbouring property gets protected with plywood. Every slab is pitched away from the foundation with an expansion joint at the house.
Questions
Can you pour a patio in a narrow downtown Mount Prospect yard?
Yes. We pump or wheel the concrete because a mixer chute cannot reach past the house, and we protect the neighbor's property with plywood and boards. The method is priced at the estimate, not added later.
Could my old patio be causing basement seepage?
If it has settled toward the house, quite possibly. It delivers rainfall straight to the foundation wall. Replacement resets the pitch away from the house, which is often the cheapest step in fixing basement water.
How much does a Mount Prospect patio cost?
A 16-by-20 broom finish where access is straightforward is the baseline here. Tight downtown lots that need a concrete pump to reach the back yard add to that.
