residential sidewalk replacement - help
I have about 40 feet of sidewalk in my front yard that needs to be replace - about 25 feet from the city sidewalk to my front step and another 15 feet from the front step leading to the side of the house. The sidewalk is about 31 inches wide with a slightly wider area around the steps. Theres a slight decline from the stairs to the city sidewalk.
Im looking for advice for a cost-effective and easy way to replace this. Im looking for something reasonably attractive and dont want plain ole concrete. I like the idea of exposed aggregate (costly?) or paving stones.
Im thinking of something such as renting a bin, wrecking the concrete myself, and installing paving stone myself. Will the savings be worth doing it myself or should I just hire someone?
Will it be hard to find someone to do a job this size (Im assuming its small and many wont want to touch it.)
Any advice or any recommendation of a concrete or paving stone guy, Im all ears.
