Paver and stone surfaces depend on what is underneath them. A patio can look uneven because a few units have moved, or because the base has settled and drainage is carrying water through the wrong area.
NY-GoodHome accepts hardscape installation and repair requests in Brooklyn and New York City. Call (223) 226-1828 with wide site photos, close damage images and approximate dimensions.
New Hardscape or Repair Existing?
A new paver or stone area starts with layout, excavation or base preparation, pitch and edge conditions. Repair may involve lifting and resetting selected units when the surrounding system remains serviceable.
Widespread settlement or recurring movement can indicate a base or drainage problem that should be addressed rather than hidden with surface adjustment.
Base and Drainage
The finished surface should direct water appropriately. Base material, compaction and pitch affect how the patio or walkway performs over time.
Excavation, drainage construction and retaining structures can change the project into a larger site-work scope.
Hardscape vs Concrete or Deck
Concrete repair belongs on Masonry & Concrete Repair. A framed wood/composite outdoor surface belongs on the Deck pages.
Related Deck & Patio Construction work can be reviewed separately when it is part of the same project.
