Crews are scrambling to make repairs to the ailing Memorial Fountain in the Town Hall Square. The repairs on the fountain and reflecting pool have reached critical mass. So much so, that the Town Council has decided to put all the plans for revitalizing this area on hold until the fountain is taken care of.

“We’ve got an emergency,” Council President Robert Wildrick said at a recent meeting. “The fountain is falling down. We can’t continue to talk about other pieces of this and watch the fountain fall to pieces.” This situation means the Landmarks Preservation Commission will only be reviewing the fountain for now.

Talk of this emergency repair might have you thinking about those areas around your home that could be in need of ASAP fixing. Before the weather turns sour, you might want to tackle repairing your driveway, patio or sidewalks. These are the areas that one crack can cause serious problems. If that crack is left untended to, it can spread and end up ruining the entire area. There are some sidewalks and driveways that have been around for decades. Those are the ones you have to keep an eye on for damage, especially after heavy rains. If you’re concrete areas are in need of replacement, you could save money by doing the demolition on your own, then bring in the professionals to pour new cement. That demolition is actually not a big deal when you hire a company like Junk King.

The hardest part about a driveway demolition is the concrete disposal. It’s easy to take a rental jackhammer to the area and break up the stones. Once you’ve done that, call Junk King. They’ll be able to swoop in and have all those chunks of cement loaded up and gone from your property in no time.

Along with all those pieces of concrete, you can use the same Junk King appointment to get rid of the rest of your junk. As long as you’re replacing your driveway, you might as well clear out the clutter from your garage. Everything you want to get rid of will be loaded onto the Junk King truck. It will then be dropped off at the specific recycling centers for reuse. This is all part of Junk King’s promise to keep Palm Beach as green as possible. Don’t strain your back with concrete disposal and junk hauling. Let Junk King take care of that for you.
