Walkways, Patios
& Drainage In
Richmond, TX.
Five Things
We Do Well In
Richmond.
We build the parts of a yard that do not grow. Paths, patios, drainage, and edging. No lawn care, no lawn maintenance, no tree removal. If that is what you need, we will point you somewhere good.
On a newer Richmond lot the first question is not what to build. It is whether the yard has finished moving yet.

Questions,
Answered.
My house is new and the side yard floods. Is that my builder's problem?
Possibly. Newer homes are often still under a builder warranty, and some builders cover grading or drainage for a period after closing. Terms vary quite a bit, so check your own paperwork or ask the builder directly before you pay anyone. If it is not covered, or the window has passed, that is when we are useful.
How soon after moving into a new build can you put a path in?
Straight away for step stones in gravel. That build sits on a compacted base and tolerates a bit of ground movement, which matters in the strip next to a new foundation where the backfill is still settling. For a large poured or paver surface hard against the house, waiting a season is the safer call and we will say so on the visit.
Can I fill in the dip between my house and my neighbor's?
Depends what it actually is, and that is worth confirming before anyone touches it. On a lot of newer lots that shallow channel is a drainage swale, graded in to carry water out to the street. If that is what yours is, filling it tends to move the problem rather than solve it, usually toward whichever house sits lower, and some communities have rules about altering lot drainage on top of that. We look at it on the visit and tell you what we think we are dealing with. Where it is a swale, a path can run through without blocking it, and that is the version we would build.
Do I need HOA approval in Aliana or Veranda?
Most likely. Richmond is largely master-planned and these communities run an architectural review for anything permanent going into the yard. We put the scope, the materials, and the dimensions in the quote so you have what the application asks for. Filing it stays with you as the owner, and we schedule around the approval.
How much does a gravel walkway cost in Richmond?
We measure rather than guess, so the number comes off your yard. Step stones in black star gravel price below pavers over the same footprint. On a new build there is often less prep involved than on an established yard, because there is nothing to take out first. The visit is free and the quote is in writing within 24 hours.
Do you charge to come out to Richmond?
No. Richmond is inside our regular service area and the site visit is free. Jobs are assigned by zone, so your project already has a crew on it before the quote goes out.
What is the deposit?
Under $5,000 it is 50% to schedule and 50% on completion after the final walkthrough. Over $5,000 it is 50% to schedule, 30% at the halfway mark, and 20% on completion. Same structure for every customer. The deposit reserves the crew, the date, and the materials.
