Walkways and Granite Steps in Nottingham, NH
Nottingham is home to Pawtuckaway, where the glaciers left one of the largest groups of big boulders anywhere. Walks and granite steps for rocky, sloping lots.
We recently purchased a house that had an old brick walkway and a porch that was pulling away from the house.
Walkways in Nottingham, Answered
Our walk has to climb a slope. Can steps help?
Yes. Granite steps and landings break a steep approach into short, easy sections, and the number of steps follows the grade that is actually there.
There is ledge and big rock in the yard. Does that rule out a walk?
Not usually. A walk can be laid out to pass beside large stones instead of through them. One customer wrote that Derek used the boulders already on her property to build a retaining wall that blends with the landscape.
Our house sits well back from the road. Can a long walk still look right?
Yes. Stepping stones in gravel, a paver walk, or a mix of the two can cover a long run from the drive without looking like a city sidewalk. On hilly ground, a step or two along the way keeps it easy to walk.
Do you come out to Nottingham?
Yes. Nottingham is on our service list, and we travel to it from our base in Newmarket.
