Trip Hazard Repair in Richardson, TX

Fix it now. A quarter-inch height difference is a quick, inexpensive grind or spot lift. Wait until it grows to an inch or more and the fix gets bigger, plus you're carrying the liability risk the whole time it sits unfixed.

Lifting uses small drilled holes and grinding just removes a thin layer of the high edge. No digging either way.

Private walkways on your property usually don't need one. Public sidewalks along the street can fall under city right-of-way and liability rules, so check with the City of Richardson if the hazard is on public sidewalk.

Grinding removes material from the high side, good for small differences under half an inch. Lifting raises the low side back to grade, better for bigger drops. We pick based on which gets a cleaner, more lasting result.

Spot repairs are usually cheaper than a full panel leveling job since they target just the problem area. We give a range once we've measured the height difference.
