Overview
A Single Standard Across Every Surface
Whether the project is a single patio or a multi-room outdoor estate, every square foot of hardscape we install rests on the same base assembly: 12 inches of compacted aggregate over geotextile, with engineered drainage and concealed edge restraint. Pavers, slabs, and stone are hand-laid and cut on site.
- Patios, walkways, and pool decks
Coordinated palettes across every surface so the property reads as one design.
- Walls, columns, and pilasters
Dry-stacked or mortared stone with reinforced cores engineered for the structural load.
- Fire features and water elements
Integrated fireplaces, fire bowls, water walls, and basins as part of the master plan.
What's Included
On-Site Stone Cutting
Wet-saw cuts for radii, edge details, and inlays — no machine-set installations.
Concealed Edge Restraint
Hidden concrete or steel edging that locks the field for decades.
Polymeric Joint Sealing
High-grade joint sand stabilized against weeds, ants, and erosion.
Drainage Engineering
Surface pitch, French drains, and tie-ins designed before excavation.
Multi-Quarry Sourcing
Direct relationships with three quarries to source the cuts and colors that distinguish luxury work.

Common Questions
Hardscapes, Answered
Can you tie new work into an existing patio?
Yes — and we will assess whether the existing base meets our standard before tying in. If it doesn’t, we recommend the scope of base replacement up front so the work doesn’t fail at the seam in five years.
How long does sealed stone last?
Properly engineered installations regularly exceed 50 years of service. Sealer coatings re-apply on a 5–7 year cycle and are part of our maintenance package.
Will pavers settle or shift?
Settlement is a base-preparation failure, not a paver problem. Our 12-inch compacted base, geotextile separation, and engineered drainage eliminate the conditions that cause heave. We warranty against settlement for 10 years.
Do you do natural stone or only manufactured?
Both. We carry direct relationships with three quarries for natural stone and partnerships with the top three manufactured-paver brands. Selection is driven by the design, not what’s in stock.
