Before we dig
Three things to have ready.
Small things on your end that keep the permit and the dig on track.
Know what needs a permit
In Joliet: driveways, aprons, sidewalks, patios with or without a roof, garages, and additions. Same-size driveway, apron, and sidewalk replacements too.

Find your plat of survey
Check your closing papers first. Your mortgage company, the City Clerk's Office (by FOIA request), or a local surveying company may also have a copy.

Point out private lines
Utilities don't mark private lines like sprinklers or power to a detached garage. Show us where yours run.

Real work
Home projects we've poured.
Real driveways, walks, patios, and foundations from across Joliet and Chicagoland.
In Joliet, yes for driveways, aprons, sidewalks, patios with or without a roof, garages, and additions. Replacing a driveway, apron, or sidewalk at the same size needs one too. Other towns set their own rules.

It's the surveyed drawing of your property. For a Joliet permit, the new work gets marked on it, and the city's Planning Division reviews its location and size.

Whoever does the digging. Illinois law requires them to notify JULIE at least 3 days ahead, not the homeowner or the company the work is for.

No. Utilities only mark the lines they own. Private lines like sprinklers, private lighting, sewer and septic lines, pools, and power to a detached garage aren't marked, so point them out before the dig.

Most concrete gets some hairline cracks. A compacted base and control joints at the right spacing keep them small and in planned places.
