Concrete Steps & Sidewalks in Mount Prospect, IL
Mount Prospect is a public sidewalk town. Parkway walk runs along virtually every street in the older village, so step and walk work nearly always involves the village as well as the homeowner. On the private side, the 1920s through 1950s houses near downtown have stoops built before frost footings were standard, and those have separated so consistently we can predict the gap.

Mount Prospect specifics
The village permits step and sidewalk work and inspects parkway construction. Ask about the shared-cost sidewalk program before paying for public walk panels yourself. Weller Creek crosses town and the low ground near it drains slowly, so water pooling at the base of front steps shortens their life and we address the grade.
Questions
Does Mount Prospect have a sidewalk cost-share program?
The village has operated one historically, so call before paying for parkway panels outright. The construction is the same either way; only who is billed changes.
Why do the older Mount Prospect stoops all separate from the house?
They were built before frost footings were standard, so they sit on fill. Frost lifts them every winter and they never fully settle back. It is consistent enough that we can usually predict the gap before seeing it.
What does a footed stoop replacement cost?
A full stoop and stair set with a footing at or below 42 inches is priced on the rise from grade and the landing width. We measure both before quoting.
