Hardscaping

Built for Beauty and Function

Hardscaping adds structure and usability to your outdoor space. Whether you need a patio for entertaining, a walkway to guide guests to your front door, or a retaining wall to manage a sloped yard, quality hardscaping makes your property more functional and more valuable. Our hardscaping services in Fontainebleau combine craftsmanship with materials that stand up to South Florida's weather.

We've been building outdoor structures throughout the Miami area, and we know what lasts. From proper base preparation to selecting materials that won't fade or crack in the Florida sun, every project is built to handle our unique climate. Your hardscaping should look as good in ten years as it does the day we finish.

What We Build

Hardscaping covers a wide range of outdoor construction projects. Here's what we specialize in:

• Patios and outdoor living areas perfect for entertaining or relaxing
• Walkways and pathways that add curb appeal and guide foot traffic
• Retaining walls that prevent erosion and create usable terraced spaces
• Driveways and parking areas built to handle daily use
• Fire pits and outdoor kitchens for backyard gatherings
• Decorative borders and edging that define garden beds and lawn areas

We work with a variety of materials including pavers, natural stone, concrete, brick, and decorative rock. Each material has its own benefits, and we help you choose the right one for your budget, style preferences, and how you'll use the space.

Why Proper Installation Matters

The difference between hardscaping that lasts decades and hardscaping that fails in a few years comes down to preparation. We don't cut corners on the parts you can't see. Every project starts with proper excavation, a compacted base, and correct drainage. Without these fundamentals, even the most beautiful patio will eventually sink, shift, or crack.

In South Florida, drainage is especially critical. Our afternoon thunderstorms can dump inches of rain in an hour. If water pools on your hardscaping or doesn't drain away from your home's foundation, you'll have problems. We grade and slope every project correctly, and we coordinate with our irrigation team when needed to ensure water goes where it should.

The Design Conversation

Before we start any hardscaping project, we talk through how you want to use the space. A patio for intimate family dinners looks different from one designed for hosting large parties. A front walkway that needs to accommodate wheelchairs or strollers requires different planning than a decorative garden path.

We also discuss style. Do you prefer the clean lines of modern concrete pavers, the rustic charm of natural stone, or the classic look of brick? We show you samples, explain the pros and cons of each material, and help you make a choice you'll love for years. Our design team ensures your hardscaping complements your home's architecture and existing landscaping.
