Custom Paver And stone Patios
We design and build paver and stone patios that feel connected to the home, garden, and surrounding landscape. Our approach combines thoughtful landscape design with proper construction to create outdoor spaces that are beautiful, functional, and built to last.
From a simple garden patio to a larger outdoor living space, each project is planned around the property, how the space will be used, and how it fits into the landscape as a whole.
This may include:
-
Interlocking paver patios
-
Natural stone and flagstone patios
-
Patio extensions
-
Garden pathways and walkways
-
Steps and transitions
-
Paver borders and detailing
-
Retaining and garden walls
-
Raised planting areas
-
Drainage and grading
-
Landscape lighting
-
Planting around patios and outdoor living areas
Whether the goal is a quiet place to sit in the garden, an outdoor dining area, or a larger space for entertaining, we can help create a patio that feels like it belongs there.

A well-designed patio can completely change how you use your outdoor space.


PROPER PATIO CONSTRUCTION
Proper preparation is one of the most important parts of any hardscape project. We take the time to prepare the site, rather than focusing only on the finished surface. This ensures a patio that will last Depending on the site and project, patio construction may include excavation, grading, aggregate base installation, compaction, bedding material, edge restraint, drainage, paver installation, cutting and joint finishing.
We also consider how water moves through the property. We establish the right grades so that the finished patio works with the surrounding landscape.
