Brick paver and concrete are beautiful additions to any property. However many fall into disrepair over the years and lose their once lustrous look. At JV Hardscape restoration we aim to bring that glorious pristine look back to your hardscape. Be it brick pavers, aggregate, or concrete our renewal process will bring out its best. Our service is often provided over two work days. The first day consists of power washing the area including the use of cleaner to help lift stains. On the second day we come back out, address any repairs than need to be done such as leveling bricks before pushing in poly sand, compacting if needed, and spraying sealer. 10 years ago I started out working as a patio reatoration specialist at a company in the northwest suburbs. I have since built upon that experience and have started a family run business aiming to being my decade of experience to you at a price that doesnt break the bank.

"Dan was quick to respond to our call. He set up our appointment within a week of our initial call. Although he had help, Dan was there to supervise the job. We are thrilled with the work! Our stamped concrete patio was in desperate need of cleaning and resealing. It really looks fantastic! Dan is very professional, personable, AND came in under his original quote!! We will definitely use A Touch of Color again!"

Retaining Wall Installers questions, answered by experts

Railroad ties can be good for retaining walls, but it depends on the area. They have a desirable rustic look and are durable. The problem is they’re treated with creosote, a preservative the EPA says poses a risk to humans and wildlife. Over time, the preservative seeps out of the wood and into the ground. Many areas have banned the use of creosote-treated wood on residential properties. If your area does allow it, never use railroad ties near an edible garden or drinking water source. Instead, use wood that’s treated with an EPA-approved preservative or a wood-alternative composite material.

The longevity of flood walls depends on how they were constructed, but most wood, gravel, and cement flood walls last 10 years. While aluminum flood walls may cost far more initially, they can be a good investment as they can last decades and will not be damaged by exposure to the elements.

Rebar is a steel support that goes inside concrete to prevent structural damage over time. Concrete is susceptible to impact, weight, and tension. By inserting rebar into the concrete during the installation, you can help extend its lifespan and avoid hazardous situations where the foundation of your home gives way to tensile forces.

While vinyl is the least costly material for building a retaining wall, the most cost-effective method is to use wood or concrete blocks for a DIY retaining wall under 2 feet tall. Wood is inexpensive but lasts 20 years or more with care. Concrete can cost a little more but is stronger and will last longer with less maintenance.

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.
