We Design & Build Patios & Decks

Your patio is the anchor of your outdoor living space. Get it right and everything else (kitchen, fire pit, furniture) falls into place. Get it wrong and you'll be looking at cracks, settling, or water pooling within a year.

We build paver patios on a packed stone base with joint sand that locks the pavers in place, edges that hold them tight, and drainage worked into the design. For raised decks we use treated framing or composite boards over concrete footings poured to grade.

How We Build the Base Under Every Patio

The patio you see is only as good as what's underneath it. Every paver patio we build sits on 4 inches of packed stone, then an inch of sand leveled flat before the pavers go down. We pack the stone in passes, not all at once, so the base actually holds the weight instead of settling on you in year two.

Every hardscape job starts with a free on-site design walk-through. Once you sign off on materials and layout, the quote is fixed.

Paver Patio Materials and Patterns

A paver patio in Greenville SC gives you a surface that can be lifted and reset piece by piece if a section ever settles, plus way more material and color options than poured concrete. The material you pick and the base under it are what decide how long your patio stays sharp.

Paver Patio Base, Edge Restraint, and Drainage in Upstate SC

A paver patio lives or dies on the base underneath it. Pavers laid straight on bare red clay will heave and settle within a year. Every patio we install starts with 4 inches of packed stone, then an inch of leveling sand under the pavers. The packing is the slow part of the job and the part most installers shortcut.

Edge restraints get pinned into the base every 12 inches around the perimeter (closer on curves and slopes). Without them, the pavers in the field slowly creep outward over the years and your pattern opens up. The patio is sloped a fraction of an inch per foot away from your house so water runs the right way. See stamped concrete for a poured slab alternative, or all hardscape services.

Frequently Asked

Real Answers, Upstate SC Prices.

What base do you use under a paver patio in Upstate SC?
Every paver patio we build sits on 4 inches of compacted crusher run, then 1 inch of ASTM C33 concrete sand screeded flat before the pavers go down. The crusher run gets compacted in lifts (passes), not dumped all at once, so the base actually holds the load instead of settling in year two.
Do paver patios settle over time?
A properly installed paver patio Greenville SC project on 4 inches of compacted crusher run with edge restraints should not settle in any visible way for 25 years or more. Patios installed on inadequate base will settle within 12 months. If a section ever does settle, individual pavers can be lifted, releveled, and reset. That's the main advantage of pavers over poured concrete.
Pavers or poured concrete: which is better in Greenville SC?
Pavers can be repaired by lifting and resetting individual units if a section ever settles or stains. Poured concrete is faster to install but cracks have to be patched, not replaced. Both are valid choices and we help you pick during the on-site estimate.
