One Small City, Two Kinds of Concrete

Litchfield Park covers only about 3.3 square miles, but concrete contractors in Litchfield Park work with two very different housing stocks. Census data summarized by Point2Homes shows 10.3% of homes built in the 1960s and 21.8% in the 1970s, then a second wave with 24.4% in the 2000s and 27.8% in the 2010s. The median lands at 2003, but that number hides a split: plenty of streets have concrete that is close to fifty years old, and others have slabs that are barely ten.

The older streets

The town traces back to Paul Litchfield's 1916 search for land to grow long-staple cotton, and its Wigwam resort began taking public guests in 1929. Homes from the 1960s and 1970s often have driveways and patios that have been patched more than once. Common issues on slabs this age:

  • Joints that have opened wide and filled with weeds or gravel
  • Sections lifted by tree roots growing beside a drive or walk
  • Thin patios poured without the base or thickness used today
  • Old surface coatings peeling in patches

On these properties we often recommend replacing the worst areas outright and sizing the new work to how the house is used now: a wider driveway, a deeper patio, a level walk with no trip edges.

The newer edges

Homes from the 2000s and 2010s usually have sound builder slabs that are simply small. Owners want a bigger back patio, a pool deck or a stamped front entry. Here the job is adding on cleanly, with joints that line up and an isolation joint where new concrete meets old.

Settled households, careful planning

In 2020, residents had a median age of 45.7, and married couples headed 62.4% of households. Point2Homes reports 84.8% of homes are owner-occupied. People here tend to stay, so we plan concrete for the long run: proper base compaction, reinforcement suited to the use, control joints spaced for the slab thickness, and a cure that is not rushed in the heat.

Our services, matched to the house

For older homes: concrete repair, full concrete driveway replacement and concrete slabs for workshops or storage. For newer homes: concrete patios, pool decks and stamped concrete entries. Many projects mix both, such as replacing a cracked 1970s driveway and adding a stamped walk.

Working around mature landscaping

Where a property has mature trees, hedges or established beds, owners rarely want them torn up. We plan forms, truck access and the concrete chute or pump line around them. Where roots run under a walk, we talk through options: a gentler curve in the path, a wider joint near the trunk, or a section of pavers instead of solid concrete. We also protect lawns and irrigation lines during demolition and mark sprinkler heads before any saw cutting starts. On newer streets the concern is the opposite: a bare yard with landscaping still to come, where we set grades now so the planting beds drain correctly later.

Litchfield Park Background

  • Two building waves. Point2Homes ACS data: 21.8% of homes built in the 1970s and 10.3% in the 1960s, then 24.4% in the 2000s and 27.8% in the 2010s; median 2003.
  • Cotton beginnings. Paul Litchfield came in 1916 to find land for tire cotton; the Litchfield Park name was accepted in 1926 and the Wigwam opened to the public in 1929.
  • Long-term owners. 84.8% of homes are owner-occupied, and the 2020 median age was 45.7 with 62.4% of households married couples.
  • Compact city. About 3.31 square miles, bordered by Goodyear to the west, Avondale to the southeast and Glendale to the north.

Litchfield Park Questions

My Litchfield Park home is from the 1970s. Can you pour over the old driveway?

We rarely recommend it. An overlay copies the cracks and settlement below it. Removing the old slab lets us fix the base and set the right thickness.

A tree has lifted part of my walkway. What are the options?

We can remove the raised section and re-pour it. Whether roots should be cut is a call for an arborist, and we can leave a wider gap or reroute the walk if the tree stays.

Will a new patio extension match my existing slab?

New concrete starts lighter and darkens with age. For a closer match right away, stamped or colored concrete across the whole area is an option.
