Paver Patios & Hardscaping Services in Garner, NC

Garner sits on Wake County's red clay just like its neighbors, soil that holds water after a storm and shrinks up during a dry summer, which is exactly the kind of movement that cracks a patio built without the right base underneath it. We excavate to stable soil, compact gravel in layered lifts, screed a level bed of sand, and finish with polymeric sand in the joints so the surface locks together and resists weeds and washout. That base work matters even more when we're replacing an older surface that's already showing what happens without it.

A good share of our Garner work involves replacing aging or cracked concrete, whether that's a patio slab in Adams Point or Chadbourne that's heaved out of level or a front walkway in Cleveland Springs and Cleveland Bluffs that's cracked at every joint. We also handle step repairs and walkway replacements in neighborhoods like Creekside, Island Creek, and Kyndal, swapping old concrete for paver surfaces that are easier to repair section by section if they ever need it. Pulling out the old concrete also gives us the chance to build a proper compacted base underneath from scratch.

Once the old concrete is out and new pavers are in, we like to finish the job by tying the new surface into the yard around it, refreshing beds, adding mulch, and cleaning up borders so the whole area looks updated instead of just the walkway or patio itself. Since we handle both hardscaping and landscaping, that finishing work is part of the same visit, not a separate project. For Garner homeowners dealing with aging concrete, it's an easy way to fix the problem and update the look of the yard at the same time.
