Walkways, Patios
& Drainage In
Pasadena, TX.

Gravel and step stone walkways, paver patios, driveway extensions, French drains, and small retaining walls. Most Pasadena houses have been standing a long time. Yards that age stop behaving the way they were built to, and working out why is half the job.

What We Build

Five Things
We Do Well In
Pasadena.

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 an older lot we spend the first part of the visit working out what is actually going on before we talk about what to build.

French Drains & Yard Drainage

Inlets, pipe, and a grade that slopes toward the drain. On a yard this old the first job is working out where the water goes now, which is not always where the original grading intended.

Gravel & Step Stone Walkways In Pasadena

Concrete step stones set level with 3.5 inches of black star gravel between them, edged in bender board. On ground that has shifted once, a build that can be lifted and reset beats one that cracks.

Patio Renovation & Extensions

Interlocking pavers over compacted base, either extending the slab you have or replacing it. Which of those depends on the condition of the concrete, and we make that call standing on it.

Driveway Extensions

Extra parking down the side of the drive. Driveways here were built for the cars people had at the time. We tell you in writing which builds are rated to be driven on.

Retaining Walls & Borders

Short walls and edging. Nothing that needs an engineer. Often the thing that tidies up decades of beds that have crept outward a little further every year.
Older Lots

Find Out What It
Does In The Rain.

Golden Acres, Red Bluff, Village Grove, Parkgate. A lot of these streets have been here for decades, and a yard that old has usually been altered more than once. Working out what it actually does now is the part most people skip.
01
Dry Tells You Nothing

Watch It Rain

A yard on a dry day looks like every other yard. What we want to know is where it pools, which direction it runs, and how long it takes to clear. If you can tell us that, or better still show us a photo taken while it was standing, the quote gets a lot more accurate.
02
Check Before You Add

There May Be One Already

Older properties often have a drain a previous owner put in years ago, and quite often it has collapsed, silted up, or been cut through by something else. Finding that first is cheaper than laying a second system next to a blocked one nobody knew about.
03
Cheapest Fix First

Start At The Gutters

On a house this age the guttering has usually been replaced, extended, or disconnected at some point, and not always thoughtfully. A downspout emptying beside the foundation is still the most common thing we find, and an extension and one inlet fixes a surprising number of yards.
04
Decades Of Movement

The Ground Has Settled

Clay moves, beds get raised, slabs get poured, fill gets brought in. After fifty or sixty years of that the original grade is rarely the grade you have. We read the yard as it is today rather than assuming it still drains the way somebody drew it.
One thing worth saying upfront: we are residential only. Pasadena has a lot of industrial and commercial property and we are not set up for any of it. If you are calling about a business site we will tell you on the first call rather than waste your time.

Usually because something changed, and on an older lot there are a lot of candidates. Clay moves over time, beds get raised, fill gets added, a fence goes in, a neighbor regrades. Any of those can send water somewhere it did not go before. We walk it and work out which one it is rather than guessing, because the fix depends entirely on the cause.

Then tell us on the visit, because it changes things. Older properties often have a system a previous owner installed, and after twenty or thirty years it may be silted up, crushed, or cut through by other work. Sometimes clearing or reconnecting what is there costs less than adding a second one. Sometimes it is beyond saving. Either way it is worth knowing before we quote.

Depends on the concrete and that is a call we make standing on it. Hairline cracking on a slab that is still level is usually something we can build off. A slab that has heaved, dropped at one corner, or broken through is not worth building on, because whatever goes over it will move too. We tell you which one you have before we price it.

We measure rather than guess. Step stones in black star gravel price below pavers over the same footprint, and on an established yard taking out whatever is there now is part of the number. The site visit is free, the quote is in writing within 24 hours of it, and there is no starting-at pricing.
