Patios & Outdoor Living
Stone, brick and paver patios laid on a base that survives Carolina clay
A premium take on patios & outdoor living
A patio is the single most-used thing we build, and it is also the one most likely to be laid on three inches of sand and a prayer. Carolina clay moves. We excavate to subgrade, put down and compact a real aggregate base in lifts, and screed a bedding course before a single unit goes down — which is why our patios still sit flat after a few freeze-thaw cycles. From there it is your pick: bluestone and flagstone, clay brick in herringbone or running bond, or concrete pavers, edged and swept so the joints stay put.
This service is a good fit for homeowners and property managers who want a clean, professional result without juggling the details themselves. We handle the prep, the finish work, and the cleanup so the space is ready to enjoy when we're done.
Every project covers the essentials
- Bluestone, flagstone, clay brick and concrete paver patios
- Excavation, compacted aggregate base and screeded bedding course
- Herringbone, running bond, basket weave and random ashlar patterns
- Seat walls, steps, borders and soldier-course edging
- Polymeric or mortared joints depending on the build
- Grading and drainage so water leaves the patio, not the house
