From custom patios that fit your style to retaining walls that provide structure and elegance, our hardscaping services focus on durable craftsmanship and thoughtful design.

Patios and Outdoor Living Spaces

A well-designed patio becomes the heart of your outdoor living area, whether for relaxing with family or entertaining guests. At Rock Remodeling, our custom patio designs balance style and function, tailored to fit your space perfectly. Choose from various materials, including natural stone, pavers, and permeable options, each offering unique benefits like durability, low maintenance, and visual appeal.

Our process begins with understanding how you want to use the space. Do you need a cozy corner for morning coffee or a large area for weekend gatherings? We’ll design and install a patio that complements your home’s architecture and aligns with your lifestyle. With thoughtful features like integrated seating, fire pits, or surrounding garden beds, your patio can seamlessly extend your living space, built to last and ready to enjoy year-round.

Walkways and Driveways

Walkways and driveways are more than just pathways—they set the tone for your home’s exterior and offer a lasting first impression. Rock Remodeling designs and installs paver walkways and driveways that combine functionality with curb appeal.

• Custom Design: We create layouts that guide foot traffic naturally while enhancing the look of your landscape.
• Material Durability: High-quality pavers resist cracking and fading, ensuring your walkways and driveways withstand time and weather.
• Decorative Options: You have choices when it comes to patterns. You can select from classic herringbone, running bond, or unique custom patterns. Add contrasting borders or inlays for a touch of elegance.

Steps and Transitions

Steps and transitions are crucial in connecting different levels of your outdoor space while maintaining a cohesive design. Rock Remodeling focuses on functionality and aesthetics to create safe, durable, and visually appealing steps.

• Seamless Integration: Our designs ensure that steps flow naturally between patios, walkways, and elevation levels.
• Material Choices: Pavers offer durable and slip-resistant options for safe foot traffic. Natural stone, with its varied textures and colors, adds a timeless, elegant touch.
• Safety Features: Non-slip surfaces are designed for safety, especially in wet conditions. Proper lighting, like integrated step lighting, enhances visibility and ambiance.

Retaining and Garden Walls

Retaining and garden walls do more than just define spaces—they also add structure, prevent erosion, and enhance the beauty of your landscape. Rock Remodeling designs and builds walls that combine functionality with visual appeal.

• Structural Solutions: We build segmental retaining walls, which are ideal for controlling soil erosion, managing slopes, and adding usable space to your yard. We also offer soil retention solutions that prevent soil movement and stabilize your landscape, even on steep terrains.
• Decorative Garden Walls: These walls separate different areas, like garden beds or seating zones, for a clean, organized look. Strategically placed walls that blend naturally into the landscape can also create secluded outdoor spaces.
• Material Options: When it comes to materials, concrete blocks are engineered for strength and stability. Natural stone offers a classic, organic feel with various textures and colors.

Natural Stone and Stone Veneer

Natural stone and stone veneer bring timeless beauty and elegance to any outdoor space. At Rock Remodeling, we offer expert installation for a range of applications, ensuring that your project balances aesthetics and durability.

• Natural Stone Applications: Patios, walkways, and steps are timeless options that enhance the natural feel of your landscape. Fireplaces and accent walls add warmth and character to outdoor living areas with authentic stone features.
• Stone Veneer Options: Exterior facades upgrade the look of your home’s exterior with lightweight, versatile stone veneer. This allows you to enjoy natural stone’s appearance at a lower cost without sacrificing style.

Outdoor Fire Features

Outdoor fire features bring warmth and ambiance to your outdoor living space, making it enjoyable year-round. Rock Remodeling designs and installs fire pits and fireplaces that become natural focal points for gathering and relaxation.

• Fire Pit Options: These can be built in custom shapes and sizes to fit your space and style preferences. You can choose from stone, pavers, or brick for a cohesive look that matches your landscape.
• Outdoor Fireplaces: Larger, built-in fireplaces serve as showpieces for your patio or outdoor living area. You can incorporate features like stone veneer, mantels, and integrated seating.
• Benefits of Fire Features: They extend the use of your outdoor spaces so you can enjoy your outdoor area even on cooler nights. With a fire feature, you will create an inviting space for family and friends to gather.

Sitting Walls

Sitting walls provide functional seating while enhancing the structure and flow of your outdoor design. Rock Remodeling crafts sitting walls that blend seamlessly with other features like patios, retaining walls, and garden beds.

• Dual-Purpose Design: Sitting walls define outdoor areas while adding comfortable seating options. You can incorporate seating into retaining walls, garden borders, or patio edges for a seamless look.
• Material and Style Options: Pavers and stone offer matching and contrasting materials to complement your overall design. For enhanced functionality, you can add backrests, armrests, or lighting.

Patio Cleaning and Resanding

Over time, patios can accumulate dirt, moss, and weeds that dull their appearance and compromise their durability. Regular cleaning and resanding keep your patio looking fresh and maintain the stability of paver joints. At Rock Remodeling, here are the services we offer:

• Deep Cleaning: Power washing removes dirt, stains, and organic growth like moss and algae, restoring your patio’s original color and finish.
• Resanding Joints: After cleaning, fresh polymeric sand is swept into the joints between pavers to lock them in place and prevent weed growth.
• Benefits of Maintenance: Regular upkeep keeps your patio looking new and well-maintained. Resanding stabilizes pavers, reducing movement and preventing gaps.
