What is the typical timeline for a hardscape project?

Timeline varies by project size. A simple walkway might take a few days, while a large patio with retaining walls could take a couple of weeks. We provide a clear schedule before we start.

Which is better: pavers or concrete?

Both have advantages. Concrete is generally more affordable and offers a sleek look. Pavers are incredibly durable, flexible (which prevents cracking), and individual stones can be replaced if damaged.

Do I need a permit for a new patio or driveway?

In many cases, yes. Requirements vary by municipality (e.g., Dublin vs. Columbus). We handle the permitting process to ensure your project complies with all local codes.

Can you integrate a hardscape with my existing pool?

Absolutely. We specialize in integrating new hardscapes with existing features. We can match or complement your current pool deck to create a cohesive look.

What areas do you serve?

We provide hardscaping services throughout Central Ohio, including Columbus, Dublin, Powell, Westerville, Hilliard, New Albany, and the surrounding areas.
