Questions

Hardscaping FAQ

How long does a paver patio installation take? +
Most patio projects take 2–4 days depending on size and complexity. We prep the base first, which takes the most time — the actual paver installation goes quickly once the foundation is right.
Do pavers hold up to Wisconsin winters? +
Yes — properly installed pavers actually outperform concrete and asphalt in freeze-thaw conditions because each individual paver can flex slightly without cracking. The key is proper base depth and compaction, which we never cut corners on.
Can you work around existing landscaping? +
Absolutely. We work around mature trees, existing plantings, and garden beds regularly. We’ll note anything at risk during the estimate and discuss options before starting.
What does a retaining wall cost? +
Retaining wall cost varies significantly based on height, length, material, and drainage requirements. A simple decorative wall might run $1,500–$3,000. Engineered walls on steep slopes cost more. We’ll give you a firm written estimate after seeing the site.
Do you offer financing for larger projects? +
Yes. We work with Wisetack to offer financing from 0%–35.9% APR depending on credit. You can prequalify with no impact to your credit score. Many of our customers finance patio and outdoor living projects in the $5,000–$25,000 range.
Do you pull permits for hardscaping projects? +
We handle permitting when required. Most residential paver patios don’t require permits, but retaining walls over a certain height and structures with electrical do. We’ll handle any permits as part of your project.
