What Jericho homeowners want from new concrete

Most people call us because something they use every day has started to go wrong: a driveway that's sinking, a patio holding puddles, steps that rock or a garage floor that's chipping. Property owners call when they're building something new and need footings, a slab or a foundation under it.

When a budget gets tight, the first thing people want to cut is the base, because nobody sees it once the slab is poured. I'd rather cut back on the finish. A plain broom finish, the light texture that keeps feet and tires from slipping, can be dressed up later. A slab poured on dirt that was only raked level will settle and crack along with that dirt.

We plan the order before the truck is booked, so the digging, the packed base, the steel and the drainage all come first and the water runs away from your house. Where a slab carries a car, rebar, the steel set inside the concrete, helps hold it together if it does crack.

What we check before a Jericho pour

Before we set a date, we check with the Town of Jericho's Planning and Zoning Office about what your project needs, and we help you prepare and file whatever it asks for. A new building, a deck or a pool usually raises a permit question. So can a lot with a septic system or a flood hazard area, and the questions below cover both.

The price moves with the size and thickness of the slab, how much old concrete and soft ground has to come out, how easily the truck can reach the spot and the finish you pick. The schedule turns on the paperwork, the weather and curing, which is the wait while the concrete gains strength before you walk or drive on it. Your written estimate lists all of it, line by line.

We plan jobs in Essex Junction, Williston and Waterbury the same way, from our base in South Burlington. If you have a Jericho project in mind, please ask for an estimate by calling (802) 307-1329 or through the form.

Jericho concrete questions, answered

Do I need a zoning permit for a new deck in Jericho, VT?

Yes, the town's zoning office issues zoning permits for a new porch or deck, and for adding a roof to one. Concrete footings for a new deck belong to that project, so we make sure the permit is in hand before we set a pour date.

Who handles septic permits in Jericho, Vermont?

The State of Vermont handles septic permits, and Jericho residents call its Essex Regional Office at 802-879-5656. With some exceptions, state law requires a state permit before a new building goes up or a wastewater system changes. If the town permitted your system before 2007, the plans may be in your property file.

Where do I check flood maps for a property in Jericho?

Start with FEMA's flood map viewer, which FEMA calls the best place to begin for official flood hazard determinations. Jericho's land use regulations include flood hazard area rules, so if your lot sits in one, we want to know before we plan a slab, footing or foundation there.

Does a new swimming pool in Jericho need a zoning permit?

Yes, the town requires a zoning permit for a swimming pool because it counts the pool as a structure. If you're planning concrete pool decks around a new pool, mention it when you call, and we'll include the deck in what we check with the zoning office before we set a date.

Will my new concrete patio crack like the old one did?

Concrete can crack, but bad cracking usually comes from a soft base or missing joints, and we plan around both. We dig out and pack the subgrade, the ground the slab sits on. Then we cut control joints, shallow grooves that give the slab a chosen place to crack, before the concrete sets hard.
