Services
Brick Paving
We construct durable brick patios, walkways, and driveways using premium materials. Our process includes site analysis, base preparation with compacted gravel, and precise paver installation. Clients receive maintenance guidance to ensure longevity, with options for pattern customization and water-based sealing to protect surfaces.
Permeable Paving
Our permeable paving systems redirect rainfall into natural ecosystems through porous surfaces. We design installations with proper grading and aggregate bases to prevent water pooling. This solution meets municipal requirements while enhancing property sustainability through reduced runoff and groundwater recharge.
Retaining Walls
We build structurally sound retaining walls with geogrid reinforcement and proper drainage components. Our designs accommodate elevations exceeding 30 inches, using quality materials to prevent shifting. Projects include foundation preparation, vertical drainage systems, and aesthetic finishing to match landscape themes.
Patio Repair
Our restoration process addresses sinking or damaged patios by reconditioning bases and replacing compromised pavers. We recompact gravel layers, install fresh sand beds, and reseal surfaces to restore functionality. Projects include edge restraint upgrades and pattern preservation for seamless results.
Yard Drainage
We resolve water accumulation issues through French drains, sump pump discharge systems, and regrading. Our solutions direct water away from foundations using properly sloped trenches and perforated piping. We also implement dry wells and flow management techniques to prevent property damage.
