Hardscape
Hardscape
The ground your home stands on, paved, walled and graded right. Laid on a solid base, built to last.
Hardscape is the backbone of a property. We design and build patios, driveways, walkways and walls as one plan.
You see the layout and materials in 3D first. Then our crew handles the grading, base, drainage and finish.

FAQ
Frequently asked
questions
Can’t find what you’re looking for?
Call either office or send us a note. Real answers from our team, and consultations are always free.
Pavers or concrete: which is better?
Both last when they’re built on a proper base. Pavers are easy to repair one piece at a time; stamped or decorative concrete gives a seamless look. We’ll show you both in 3D.
Do I need a permit for hardscape?
Most patios and walkways don’t. Retaining walls over a certain height and new driveway approaches usually do. We check with your city and pull any permits needed.
Water pools on my patio. Can you fix it?
Usually, yes. We regrade the area, set the right slope and add drains so water runs away from the house instead of toward it.
