Why homeowners pick Tri-County

Built for Delaware weather, finished to last

ADA Grades Where Required

Commercial sidewalks and public-facing access routes need the right grades, curb cuts, and tactile warning pads. We build those details into the scope from the start.

Slip-Resistant Finish

A broom finish gives walkways traction in wet Delaware weather. It is practical, clean, and required on sloped access routes.

Permits Handled for Commercial Work

Right-of-way work can involve DelDOT or municipal approvals. We coordinate permits and inspections when the sidewalk crosses into public-facing requirements.

Details

Cracked walkways are more than ugly — they are liability and access problems.

A cracked or uneven walkway changes how people move through your property. For homeowners, it hurts curb appeal and makes the front entrance feel tired. For businesses, HOAs, and property managers, it can become a trip hazard, an insurance issue, or an ADA compliance problem. Tri-County Construction installs residential concrete walkways and commercial sidewalks across Delaware with the right thickness, finish, and permit path for the job.

Residential walkways are typically poured 3–4 inches thick for paths to front doors, side gates, back patios, and outdoor spaces. Commercial sidewalks are usually 4–6 inches thick and may require ADA grades, curb cuts, ramps, or tactile pads. We form straight runs, curves, and angled layouts using flexible forms and steel stakes so the finished path works with the property instead of fighting it.

The difference between a walkway and a sidewalk is often permit ownership. Private walkways are usually on your property. Sidewalks can be public-facing or in the right-of-way, which can bring DelDOT or municipal requirements. We handle both, including slip-resistant broom finishes and visual continuity with nearby driveways, patios, and hardscape.

FAQ

Common questions

Don't see your question? Call (302) 419-3232 or send a quick note through the contact form — we usually reply same-day.

How wide should a walkway be?
36 inches is the minimum for two-person comfort, 48 inches is better for a primary entrance, and 60 inches is standard for ADA-public access. We size it to your traffic and setbacks.
Can you do walkways with curves or angles?
Yes. We form-bend with steel stakes and flexible forms. Curves cost slightly more in labor, but they are often worth it for the look.
What is the difference between a walkway and a sidewalk?
Walkways are private property; sidewalks are public-facing or in the right-of-way and may need DelDOT or municipal permits. We do both — the permit process is the main difference.
What affects the cost of sidewalks and walkways in Delaware?
Cost factors include total square footage, site access and excavation needed, thickness (3–4 inch residential vs. 4–6 inch commercial), finish type (broom for slip resistance vs. smooth), and whether ADA ramps, curb cuts, or municipal permits are required.
