Yes, our crew takes concrete jobs in Snow Hill. It is part of the Borough of Lawnside, which borders Cherry Hill, where our office sits.
Snow Hill got its name from sand, which can shift under a slab if the base is not dug out and packed tight. That is where every job begins.
Snow Hill and the rest of Lawnside are part of the Camden County area our family serves every week. Browse every town on our concrete contractor service areas page.

The community began around 1840 as Free Haven, a stop on the Underground Railroad, called Snow Hill by about 1867, then Lawnton, then Lawnside around 1907.
According to the Peter Mott House museum, the name came from the white sugar sand on the hilltop, visible from far away once the trees were cut.
Peter Mott, a free Black farmer, built his house here around 1845. It is now a museum on Kings Court, on the National Register of Historic Places.
In 1926, Lawnside became the first independent African American municipality north of the Mason-Dixon line, covering just 1.43 square miles with 2,955 residents in 2020.
Mount Pisgah AME Church and Mount Peace Cemetery are also part of that story, and the sandy ground behind the name still shapes how a slab is built here.
Loose, sandy ground and years of weather lead to a few common problems. Here is the concrete work Snow Hill homeowners ask us about.
When sand under a driveway shifts, the slab cracks and dips. We excavate, add and compact a stone sub-base, then pour a 4500 PSI mix.
Walks often sink where rain has washed sand out from below. We lift out the bad sections, rebuild the base and slope the new walk away from the house.
A step that pulls away from the house is a trip hazard. We form and pour new steps with even risers on solid footing.
A shed or grill area on bare sand will lean in time. We pour slabs on a packed base so the load spreads evenly.
Some yards have old slabs nobody uses anymore. We break them out, haul the debris away and leave the area graded.
Papaneri & Sons is a family business that dates back to 1987. Mario Sr, Mario Jr and Nick work the jobs, and Denise keeps the office running.
Sand drains well but moves easily, so we grade and compact the sub-base before any concrete goes down.
Water running across sand carries it away, so during the estimate we look at where rain flows and pitch the new concrete to match.
Work in Snow Hill goes through the Borough of Lawnside Construction Office. Denise pulls the permits and books inspections.
Lawnside and Cherry Hill share a border. That short drive keeps estimates quick and makes follow-up visits easy.

We serve the streets around Warwick Road, Gloucester Avenue and Lundy Avenue, plus the blocks near Kings Court and the Peter Mott House.
Warwick Road connects to I-295, and the Turnpike and White Horse Pike also run through Lawnside, giving our trucks a direct path in.
Near the post office on East Emlen Avenue, we plan truck and wheelbarrow routes before pour day so the street stays open.
Close to the museum and Mount Peace Cemetery, we keep the work area tidy and walkways clear.
We cover Snow Hill and every other part of the Borough of Lawnside. Our crew also works in the towns around it, from Haddonfield to Voorhees.
(856) 354-9338Yes, Snow Hill is a section of the Borough of Lawnside in Camden County, known by that name before it took the Lawnside name around 1907.
Yes, sand can shift or wash out if the base is weak. We dig out the soft material, add stone and compact it in layers so the driveway does not crack or dip.
The Borough of Lawnside Construction Office covers Snow Hill. Our office checks what your project needs and files the permits for you.
Most often, water has carried sand out from under the slab, and patching the top will not fix that. We replace the sunken sections and rebuild the base.
Yes, shed and backyard slabs are regular jobs for us. We compact a stone base first and size the slab to your shed so it does not lean.
Many driveway replacements are done in a single day. Bigger jobs or permit reviews can add time.
