"I reached out to Jonathan to get an estimate/recommendation for landscaping services for my back yard. Walkways were overgrown and had no design/plants. Jonathan reviewed the layout of my yard, irrigation system. Made recommendations based on what he thought would look best. He listened to me, when I stated which plants/shrubs I would like to see incorporated. He and his team took two days clean out the old mess, and lay the foundation for the new trees/plants/shrubs. The team was very efficient, clean and courteous. Arrived on time as scheduled. I would absolutely recommend Southern Landscapes to anyone."

"Customer service with Garden of Eva was excellent. As a veteran, I truly felt the owner went out of his way to provide the best service possible. The project took longer than expected. However the work when it was completed was absolutely terrific. Kudos to Rocky and his family for all their hard work. My residential yard looks great!"

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

You’ll first need to install a base underneath your pavers for extra stability and drainage. Otherwise, the pavers can sink into the ground, and you’ll have to reinstall them. Use a base gravel layer of 4 to 6 inches for walkways and 10 to 12 inches for driveways. Compact your gravel layer every 2 to 4 inches so it’s nice and solid. After you install your gravel base, apply a 1-inch layer of sand on top.

Asphalt, which is stone mixed with tar, is the most common material for outdoor basketball courts because it’s so sturdy and versatile. However, you don't have to use it: another option is polymeric rubber, which has shock pads that can prevent injury. This option is a little more expensive, ranging between $16 and $25 per square foot.

Materials used for indoor basketball courts, such as hardwoods, aren’t really an option outdoors.

Installing a walkway to your home can add value, as it can make your landscaping look more intentionally designed and boost your overall curb appeal. In addition, walkways can be installed with accessibility in mind, which can be helpful for those with mobility issues or who need a wheelchair.

The most obvious disadvantage of permeable paving is that the cost is typically higher compared to non-permeable concrete, pavers, or asphalt methods. Also, the porous material can get clogged with dirt and debris, requiring cleaning and power washing more frequently than standard paving materials and methods. Although permeable paving is not ideal for highways, airports, and other surfaces supporting heavy traffic and machinery, it is suitable for regular residential driveways.

The ideal distance between stepping stones depends on your design preference. A general rule is to place them about 24 inches apart from center to center to match an average person's stride. Another common approach is to leave about 6 inches of space between the edges of each stone; this can be adjusted to fit the path's total length without cutting pavers. If you plan to plant between the stones, leave at least 6 to 8 inches of space to give the plants room to grow.
