We’ve had portions of our sidewalk that were cracked and uneven since I bought the place. The tree roots really do a number on things!   

About a month after I moved in, I got a “welcome to the neighborhood and please fix your sidewalk” notice from the community association – do fixing this has been on my radar for quite some time. Alex has a friend with a slab-jacking company, so we decided to give that a try instead of re-pouring the whole thing.
