Walnut Creek questions
- Who repairs sunken pavers and patio drainage in Walnut Creek?
- Golden Hills Landscape, Inc., a licensed and insured hardscape contractor (CA License #1118886). We completed a Walnut Creek backyard with paver patio, retaining walls and hillside steps, reviewed 5 stars on Google.
- Why do pavers sink?
- Usually a weak or wet base. Water that sits under the pavers softens it. We fix the base and give the water somewhere to go, not just reset the top.
- Can you add a fire pit or seating area that drains well?
- Yes. We plan the slope, base and drainage around the seating area so it stays usable in winter.
- How much does it cost?
- It depends on size, base condition, access and materials. You get a free written estimate after the site visit.
