- Pavers replacing worn lawn areas
Local conditions
What Sinks Patios in Westwood
Runoff from wooded hillsides in Westwood crosses any flat area below it, and a patio without the right pitch ends up holding water. We set a deep compacted base, pitch the surface away from the house, and plan the drainage before laying the pavers.
Issues we see most:
- Pavers settling along the border
- Old slabs cracking after winters
- Standing water across the patio
- Weeds coming up between the joints
- Bare areas by the back door
Warning signs to watch for:
- Trip spots across the patio
- Low spots holding ice
- Joint sand washing away
- Stones shifted out of place
- Yard space too uneven to enjoy
When the new patio belongs to a bigger project with walls, steps, and a walkway, read the hardscape contractor page for how we plan everything together.
Our process
What Our Westwood Paver Patio Service Includes
A simple square patio and a large patio with seat walls are very different projects, but every paver patio in Westwood begins the same way: an evaluation of the ground, the grade, and where water goes. From there, we design the patio, build the base, and lay the pavers.
- 01
Patio Layout
The size, shape, the paver style, and borders are planned around the way you use the yard and its connection to the house.
- 02
Digging Out
Grass, topsoil, and soft soil come out to the depth the base requires, so no soft soil stays under the patio.
- 03
Gravel Base
Crushed gravel is placed in lifts, and each lift is tamped before the next, so the patio carries weight evenly.
- 04
Pitch for Water
The base is graded gently away from the house, so water runs off rather than sitting on the pavers.
- 05
Setting the Pavers
A bedding layer is screeded, then the pavers or stone are set in the pattern you picked and trimmed at the edges.
- 06
Edges and Joints
A restraint at the edge holds the field in place, and sand in the joints tightens them together once it is compacted.

FAQ
Patio Pavers in Westwood: Common Questions
Building a patio brings up a lot of questions, and we have gathered the ones Westwood homeowners raise most often below. They touch on pavers and stone, what goes under the patio, water, and estimates. Not seeing yours? Call (774) 341-4894 and ask our team, and we will walk you through it.
Is Westwood within your paver patio service area?
It is. Westwood, ZIP code 02090, is covered by our Greater Boston service area, and our own crew takes on interlocking paver and stone patios in Westwood. Explain what you have in mind for the backyard at (774) 341-4894, and our team will book a free consultation at a convenient time.
Can you add a fire pit or seat wall to my patio in Westwood?
Yes. Fire pits and seat walls are among the patio features we install, and it works best when planned with the patio so the layout and base match. For a current patio in Westwood, we check the space and the base before at the free consultation.
How long does a paver patio last?
The pavers only carry the load onto what is under them. A well-compacted crushed stone base holds the surface flat, lets water drain, and stands up to freeze and thaw. If the base is too shallow or not compacted, the surface sinks, holds puddles, and shifts after a few winters.
Can a patio be built on a sloped yard?
Yes, it can, often with a retaining wall to create a flat area first. We study the grade and where water runs, then design the patio and the wall together, so the steps, base, and drainage fit. What it takes are explained during the free consultation.
