Hello all – the gas company came and replaced the line coming into our single family house under the stoop and in doing so dug a hole in the concrete sidewalk around their valve. The workers filled the hole and put some kind of asphalt on top – they left a couple hours ago. My question is, am I now responsible for repairing the concrete sidewalk? Or does the gas company? I’m calling them in the morning but would still appreciate any advice on the subject.

Same thing happened to us a few months ago, National Grid redid all the lines down our block then did the gravel thing.  A few days or maybe a week or so later the city sent a team around to repair all the sidewalks.  They did a nice job, tho repairs were poured concrete only, not bluestone.  So I think you should just wait a bit and see what happens, it’s likely if it got torn up that it will get repaired as well.

I think you’re fine….and they will fix (or city will).
