We had to get out water service line to the house replaced over the weekend which involved the plumber having to tear up the sidewalk in front of our house. Can anyone recommend someone to do the repair work?

Thanks!

You'll want to wait till spring to pour any concrete.
Do you need just one section or "flag" replaced?

I believe it's two sections and part of the drivway apron.

Wait till spring? Really?
So what would we do in the meantime? Just keep it fenced off? Do people just have to walk around this section of sidewalk until spring?

Pour 3/4" stone into the areas and tamp.

I tried like heck to get someone to come and fix one square of concrete in front of our house -- no luck. If you need other people to make it worth the contractor's while to mix up the cement, pleasec ount me in!
