A Salem client wanted to create a unique patio using found materials. However he needed help in creating a foundation that was firm and pitched to shed water. The area in his backyard was excavated, then a thick layer of stone dust was brought in and compacted. After compaction, the surface was pitched and screeded, leaving a surface ready for the homeowner to create the patio he wanted. A small retaining wall and steps were also added.
While I usually oversee a project from start to finish, I am always happy to help clients do the difficult bits of a project.
