ADA isn’t “flatwork.”

It’s accuracy.

ADA sidewalk work is unforgiving. A small miss in grade, cross-slope, or transitions can turn into a failed inspection, public complaints, and costly rework. Done right, it disappears into the background in the best way: clean lines, safe travel, and predictable outcomes.

Where ADA sidewalk projects go wrong

Most failures aren’t dramatic. They’re small until an inspector or the public finds them.
Here’s what we’re called to fix (and what we plan to prevent):
Cross-slope issues that fail compliance
Uneven panels / lips that become trip hazards
Improper running slope that creates accessibility and drainage problems
Ponding from low spots or missed grade control
Bad transitions at driveways, curb returns, and tie-ins
Rushed prep that leads to settlement and future displacement
Vague scope that causes change orders and rework late in the job
In ADA work, “close enough” is what creates callbacks.

How we deliver first-pass, compliance-minded sidewalks

We don’t guess. We treat ADA work like what it is: precision work with real accountability.

01

Scope & Spec Alignment

We review the requirements provided and confirm the pass/fail factors early before anything is poured.

02

Site Read

We walk the site, identify drainage patterns, and plan how water will move without compromising accessibility.

03

Grade Control

We establish grade control points and plan slopes intentionally because cross-slope and transitions are where most failures happen.

04

Prep for Stability

Stable base work reduces settlement and displacement that can create future noncompliance.

05

Form + Transition Planning

Tie-ins, driveway transitions, curb interfaces, and landing areas are planned so they feel clean and pass inspection.

06

Joint Layout

Concrete can crack over time joints help keep movement controlled and lines intentional.

07

Finish for Safety + Longevity

Finish is functional here: safe texture, clean edges, and a surface that holds up to public use and Oregon weather.

08

Closeout Mindset

We walk the finished work with the same lens inspectors use, because that’s the standard.

Documentation when it matters

Some projects don’t need paperwork. ADA work often does.

When required, we can support compliance-focused delivery with:
  • Photo documentation
    of key stages (prep, form/grade control, finished conditions)
  • Clear scope notes
    and coordination points
  • Responsive communication
    around inspection timing and site readiness
If you have a specific closeout process, tell us up front we’ll align to it.

Options and scope made clear

ADA sidewalk work can vary widely depending on the job. We help define scope clearly from the start:
  • New sidewalk pours vs. panel replacement
  • Tie-ins at approaches, ramps, and transitions
  • Drainage considerations and water routing
  • Any jurisdiction requirements and inspection constraints
  • Traffic control coordination (if applicable to your project)
No vague assumptions. The fastest projects are the ones with the clearest scope.

Defined scope prevents rework

Rework is expensive. It’s also avoidable. We lock the plan early. Slopes, transitions, control lines, and sequencing so the work is built for first-pass outcomes, not second attempts.

I've hired Pat's Pound & Pour many times now for smaller and larger jobs, ranging from bulged sidewalk repair (required by the City of Portland...erg) to a slab for a detached studio, as well as stairs and retaining walls. They are awesome !

Outstanding service. I am new to the area so was at loss for who to call.  Professional level at all points of contact. Jarrod is the best. Great price. They showed up on time and leveled the yard and poured a new driveway in no time. I have had over a year's use so far and the job will clearly last a lifetime. Use this company first for concrete.

As a contractor, I’ve worked with a lot of concrete crews, and Pat’s Pound and Pour is one of the best in Portland. These guys show up on time, get right to it, and do solid work every time. Their flatwork is clean, consistent, and they don’t leave a mess behind.

Pats Pound & Pour was so easy to work with! They were timely, professional, and left my driveway looking incredibly clean after their work was done! My parents actually recommended them to me after having their driveway extended and I'm so glad I took their advice! I highly recommend this company to anyone looking to have concrete work done on their home.

Pat's pound and pour crew are true craftsmen. They paid close attention to detail, especially with the drainage, which was a big concern for us. The new driveway is not only beautiful but perfectly sloped away from the house, and all the water runoff goes exactly where it's supposed to.
A professional and efficient team. The crew was punctual, hardworking, and finished the project in a very timely manner. They were respectful of our property and did a fantastic job of cleaning up the site when they were done.
Jarrod and Pat are very responsive and kept us informed throughout the entire process. Any questions we had were answered quickly and thoroughly. It's clear that they are committed to customer satisfaction.
We highly recommend Pat's Pound & Pour to anyone needing concrete work. The price was fair, the service was outstanding, and the final product exceeded our expectations.
