[QUOTE="Catt57, post: 3126907, member: 34578"] It really depends on level of work they are putting into it. If they are just pouring concrete in a trench and smoothing it, then that over priced. If they are doing proper preparation, framing the sidewalk and building up the sidewalk bed with appropriates liners and such, then it seems more realistic. Also realize that a 10x8 patio is an easier/faster job than 50 ft of sidewalk. Also 50x3 is almost double the concrete vs 10x8 (thickness being the same of course.) The short answer is - it depends. Look at the level of work you are being quoted. And ask questions. And if the quote doesn't give an idea of the level of work. the work is probably going to be of the same level of detail as the quote... [/QUOTE]
