Greetings,

If it has really sunk 6" you might consider pouring another 4-6" of
concrete on top of the existing sidewalk. This way you get a brand-new
looking sidewalk a foot thick.

Hope this helps,
William

Not only that, when it gets to be over 8" you can give it to the
county and they will maintain it.

Well, not really, but our n'hood streets are so thin that the county
won't take them. We have to continue to pay for the snow-plowing and
the reblacktopping.
