Concrete Steps & Sidewalks in Naperville, IL
Naperville sidewalk work carries an extra layer, because so much public walk sits in a parkway with mature trees and the city takes tree protection seriously. Root heave is the most common cause of lifted panels in the older parts of the city, and the answer is rarely cutting the root. We look at ramping, realignment or a root barrier first.

Naperville specifics
Naperville requires a right-of-way permit for public walk work on top of the building permit, and tree protection applies where parkway trees are near. Severing a structural root on a mature parkway tree is both an arboricultural and a permit problem, so that approach takes longer to design and we explain it at the estimate.
Questions
My Naperville sidewalk is lifted by tree roots. What are the options?
Ramping the adjacent panels, shifting the alignment slightly, or replacing with a thicker section over a root barrier. Cutting a structural root to flatten the walk can kill the tree and breach the city's tree protection requirements.
Do I need a separate permit for public sidewalk work?
Yes. Public walk in the parkway needs a right-of-way permit on top of the building permit, and tree protection approval where parkway trees are close. We file all of it.
What does a front step set cost in Naperville?
A full stoop and stairs with a footing below the 42-inch frost line is priced as a set. A smaller set is quoted by the riser instead.
