Outdoor living, done right.
Patios, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, retaining walls, and full hardscape restoration — designed for how you actually live outside, and built to last through Virginia weather.
Pick a project below — or combine them. Most of our best backyards started as “just a patio” and grew into the place everyone ends up.
The foundation of every great backyard. Sized for your furniture, your gatherings, and your lot — not a cookie-cutter square.
Most patios are priced by size & stone choice — use the estimator below for a ballpark.
Cook, host, and stay outside. Built-in grills, pizza ovens, sinks, storage, and bar seating in brick or stone that matches your home.
From a simple grill island to a full kitchen — we’ll scope it to your budget.
The spot nobody wants to leave. Wood-burning or gas, with proper drainage, seating, and stonework that ties the whole yard together.
A fire feature is the single best add-on to any patio project.
Turn a slope into usable yard. Engineered drainage, solid footings, and walls that solve erosion instead of just hiding it for a season.

You get a clear layout and a written scope with the exact price — stone options at different budgets, no vague allowances.
Proper excavation and base work first (that’s what makes it last), then stone, then the finishing details. We keep the site tidy.
Final walkthrough with you, care instructions, and we don’t call it done until you love how it looks at golden hour.
Real project styles from across the Richmond area — patios, kitchens, fire features, walls, walks, and lighting.
“Restoration” is in our name for a reason. Sunken pavers, wobbly steps, washed-out joints, stained and tired stone — most of it doesn’t need replacing. It needs re-leveling, re-jointing, proper edging, cleaning, and sealing.
A restoration typically costs a fraction of a rebuild and can add years — often a decade — to a patio or wall. If it truly can’t be saved, we’ll tell you straight and show you why.

Yes — and it’s the part that decides whether a patio lasts 3 years or 30. We grade, compact, and drain every base properly, and retaining-wall projects include drainage behind the wall as standard.
Very often, yes. Re-leveling, joint repair, edging, cleaning, and sealing restore most patios for a fraction of replacement cost. Book a free walkthrough and we’ll give you an honest restore-vs-replace call.
