First, we come out and look at your space. Not just a quick glance—we’re talking about drainage, slope, soil conditions, and how you actually want to use the area. We measure everything and take pictures so we can give you a real quote, not just a ballpark guess. Then we walk through material options that make sense for your budget and your goals. We’ll show you samples, explain why certain stones work better than others in our climate, and help you understand the difference between options that look similar but perform very differently. Once we start work, we handle all the heavy lifting. Excavation, base preparation, proper drainage installation—all the stuff that determines whether your hardscaping lasts five years or fifty years.
