Going the Extra Mile in Hardscaping Quality
We’re family-owned and operated. Our name is on our trucks and on the shirts of the eight members of our full-time, professional onsite crews. That’s one reason quality is so important to us.
Our team members onsite go above and beyond in nearly aspect of a hardscaping project.
- Concrete driveways and walkways with thicker concrete (5 inches) using rebar grid rather than a weaker wire mesh.
- Meticulous surface preparation before laying sidewalks, driveways, pathways, and patios.
- “Statement walkways” that combine character and function.
- Precise grading to ensure proper drainage.
- 12-inch overlap in lawn and flower bed edging.
- Double thickness fabric secured with extra pins under rocks and mulch.
- Licensed professionals for underground wiring, gas hookups, and other utilities supporting the outdoor features.
- Handpicked plants from reputable nurseries.
- A minimum of 3-inch layers of rock and mulch.
- Deeper topsoil to promote sod incorporation.
- Precise, multi-zone, resource-saving irrigation/sprinkler system configurations.
Concrete Work: It’s All in the Surface Prep (and Cleanup)
The secret to a premium pathway – whether using flagstone, pavers, or stamped concrete – is the extra time spent preparing and grading the surface beneath it to prevent the settling, shifting, or erosion that will ruin the path over time.
In these projects, as well as our sidewalk and driveway work, more than 60% of our time is spent on surface preparation, including adding a base material and firmly tamping it down so the surface is almost as solid as the stone itself. Colorado’s shifting soils can wreak havoc on hardscaped surfaces, but this added level of preparation, along with our standard practice of using thicker concrete reinforced with rebar grids, helps preserve them.
Concrete work can be messy, so when the truck pulls away and the finishing work is complete, you won’t see any sign the work ever happened – except for your perfectly laid driveway, patio, or pathway.
