Concrete paver, bluestone, flagstone or brick, set on a base built for the ground it sits in.
Front walks, garden paths and steps — the run people use every day and notice when it moves.
Block or natural stone, drained behind and footed on ground that has been prepared for it.
Paver and cobblestone, edged and restrained so the border holds its line.
Granite, bluestone and built treads, set solid and pitched to shed.
Foundations, columns, chimneys and facades in natural and manufactured stone.
The part nobody sees and the reason the rest of it is still straight in twenty years.
Every wall and patio we have taken apart failed for one of these five reasons. They are the same in Fort Worth as anywhere else in Texas, and they are most of what separates a job that looks right at twenty years from one that does not make five.
Compacted gravel, deep enough for the ground it sits in. Every course above copies the first one, and so does every mistake in it.
Much of the ground here is clay that swells when it is wet and shrinks when it dries. A patio laid straight on it rises and falls with every wet spring and dry summer, and cracks where it does. The base is what keeps that movement from reaching the stone.
Water standing against a wall or soaking in under a patio is what makes clay move. Clean stone, fabric, and a pipe run out to daylight keep the ground under the work at an even moisture.
A tooled joint sheds water off the face of the stone. A joint struck flush holds it there, and held water is what stains the stone and washes the joint out.
The top takes the weather and everything anyone sets on it. Pitched away, set solid, joints tight.

Fort Worth is the seat of Tarrant County, Texas, and we cover it alongside Benbrook, Keller and Southlake.
Frost is rarely what decides a job here; water and clay are. We look at the soil and at where the water goes before we price, and we build to what your building department requires.
If something we built moves, cracks or fails in the first year because of how it was built, we come back and fix it. No argument, no invoice.
Trace your patio on a satellite view of your own property, or send a photograph of the job, and the page prices it. The on-site visit is free and it is what makes it exact.
