What is sidewalk grinding?

Sidewalk grinding is an effective way to fix a concrete slab trip hazard without causing too much disruption to pedestrians. The process involves using specialized equipment to grind down a raised portion of the sidewalk. This provides a fast, cost-effective solution to maintain a safer walking surface for pedestrian foot traffic.

When is concrete grinding a good fit for sidewalks and walkways?

Grinding sidewalk slabs can be a good fit to remove walkway trip hazards when no other option, such as other concrete leveling methods, is available as a last resort. It can quickly remove trip and fall liability but has some drawbacks, such as poor appearance and weakening or thinning of the concrete slab. Concrete grinding is also not always an option for the reasons shown below.
