Suppose this could be in the masonry forum, but I'll try here first. :D

Anyway, we're going to replace our front sidewalk that runs from the driveway to the front door. I'm looking for an approx cost per square foot for complete installation of the sidewalk. A rough estimate would be about 120 sqft. Any other considerations or advice would be welcomed as well.

We like the look of pavers, but I would think the cost would be much higher than concrete because of the labor involved. Thanks!

I like pavers myself. You can always take pavers up and do what ever with them but cement is one time deal.

For pavers, it is a DIY project, you can do it at your own pace and the labor is free!!
