The crew that came out to install our steps/patio/retaining wall was professional, friendly, and efficient. The project was completed within a week and we were thrilled with the results.

Freeze and Thaw

Why the Base Comes First in Dover

Away from the coast, soil holds more water, and wet ground heaves when it freezes. A wall needs clean stone behind it and a drain at the bottom, so water never builds up against it.

Common Questions

Questions We Hear From Homeowners

Do you build patios in Dover?

Yes, you can see examples on our Dover patio page.

Our old wall is leaning. Can it be rebuilt?

Yes, a wall that leans or bulges usually comes down and is rebuilt on a compacted base with drainage stone behind it.

Granite or concrete for front steps?

Granite holds up through freeze and thaw with no patching. Concrete is porous, and the cycles wear it down over a few winters.

Where are you based?

We are based in Newmarket, NH, a short drive south of Dover.
