What Our Hardscaping Services in Delaware Include

Five hardscaping services in Delaware, all handled by one crew. Book a single project or combine several on one schedule.

Pool Decks in Delaware by Perez Landscaping and Hardscaping

Pool Decks in Delaware

Pool deck installation in Delaware uses slip resistant pavers, travertine, bluestone and textured concrete finishes. Decks go around in ground and above ground pools of any shape or size. Coping, step treads, bullnose edges and pool edge details are cut to fit the shell. The base is compacted and pitched so water drains away from the pool. Travertine stays cool underfoot through humid coastal summers and shrugs off salt air. Old concrete pool decks can be resurfaced, overlaid with pavers or torn out completely. Pool patio work in Delaware is scheduled around your swim season.

Driveway Installation in Delaware by Perez Landscaping and Hardscaping

Driveway Installation in Delaware

Driveway installation in Delaware covers paver, concrete and gravel driveways. The old surface is removed and hauled off before new work starts. The base is graded, compacted and built deep enough to carry vehicles on sandy soil. Drainage is planned so water moves off the driveway instead of pooling at the garage. Aprons, borders, edge restraints and turnaround areas are laid out with the main run. Driveway widening, resurfacing and replacement are all handled in Delaware. Paver driveways can be sealed and joint sanded to slow weed growth. Belgian block and cobble borders are available.

Patio Installation in Delaware

Patio installation in Delaware uses pavers, flagstone, natural stone and stamped concrete. Every patio sits on a compacted gravel base with a leveled bedding layer on top. Proper base depth and drainage keep the surface level through freeze and thaw cycles. Sizes run from small sitting areas to full outdoor living spaces with multiple zones. Fire pits, seating walls, steps, pergola footings and grill areas are added on request. Edge restraints and polymeric sand lock the joints against blown coastal sand and weeds. Patio and walkway work in Delaware is quoted together as one job.

Retaining Walls in Delaware by Perez Landscaping and Hardscaping

Retaining Walls in Delaware

Retaining wall installation in Delaware holds back slopes, stops erosion and creates level, usable yard space. Walls are built in segmental block, natural stone, boulder or poured concrete. Gravel backfill and a perforated drain pipe behind the wall relieve water pressure. Geogrid is added on taller walls so the structure ties into the soil. Caps, steps, lighting and seating walls can be worked into the same run. Low terraced walls also lift beds above the high water table near the coast. Failing, leaning or bulging walls in Delaware are rebuilt from the footing back up.

Tree Trimming in Delaware by Perez Landscaping and Hardscaping

Tree Trimming in Delaware

Tree trimming in Delaware covers pruning, crown thinning, crown raising, crown reduction and deadwood removal. Limbs are cleared off roofs, gutters, fences, driveways, walkways and power line clearances. Cuts are made at the branch collar so the tree seals over properly. Thinning the canopy lets light reach the lawn and lowers storm damage risk. Ornamental trees, fruit trees and shrubs are shaped without cutting back hard. Storm prep trimming in Delaware removes weak limbs before nor'easter and hurricane season. All brush and limbs get chipped and hauled the same day. Emergency limb removal runs 24/7.

Why Our Crew

Why Delaware Property Owners Choose Our Hardscaping Crew

Three things separate a hardscape that lasts thirty years from one that shifts and cracks in three. Here is what we do differently.

Get Your Free Estimate

One Crew, Five Services

Patios, driveways, walls, pool decks and tree trimming come from one single company. There is no second contractor to coordinate or schedule.

Base Work Done Right

Most hardscaping fails at the base, not the surface. Every install here is compacted, pitched and drained before the first stone lands.

Freeze and Thaw Ready

Freeze and thaw cycles lift poorly built patios and driveways. Proper base depth and drainage keep the surface level year after year.

Frequently Asked

Hardscaping Questions from Delaware Clients

How much does a patio cost in Delaware?

It comes down to square footage, material and how easy it is to get equipment into the yard. A small paver sitting area and a large patio with steps and a fire pit are very different jobs. You get a written price after we walk the property, and it doesn't move once it's signed.

How long does a paver patio or driveway last?

Decades, if the base is right. That's the part nobody sees and the part that decides everything. A properly compacted and drained base keeps pavers level through freeze and thaw. A thin or skipped base is why patios sink, heave and go wavy after two winters.

Do I need a permit for a patio or retaining wall in Delaware?

It depends on your county, the wall height and how close the work sits to the property line. Taller retaining walls usually need one. We'll tell you what your project needs during the estimate so nothing stalls after the crew shows up.

When is the best time of year to install hardscaping?

Spring through fall is easiest, but hardscaping runs later into the year than planting does. Base work and paver setting are possible in cold weather as long as the ground isn't frozen. Winter jobs just move slower, so the timeline stretches.

Can you fix a patio or wall that's already failing?

Yes. Sunken pavers, bulging retaining walls and cracked pool decks all get repaired or rebuilt. Most failures trace back to drainage or a weak base, so we fix the cause instead of resetting the surface and waiting for it to move again.

Do you work on commercial properties?

Yes. Walkways, entry plazas, parking islands and retaining walls all run on business properties in Delaware. We phase the work outside your operating hours so entrances, walkways and parking stay open while the crew is on site.

"Perez built a new paver patio behind our Lewes home. They dug deep, compacted the sandy base in layers and set every edge restraint. Two winters later nothing has sunk or shifted."

Karen Whitfield
Lewes, DE

"Our old concrete driveway in Middletown was cracked everywhere. The crew hauled it off, regraded for drainage and laid pavers. Water runs to the street now and the price matched the estimate."

Brian Castillo
Middletown, DE

"We needed a retaining wall on a slope near Dover. They installed gravel backfill, a drain pipe and geogrid exactly as explained. The wall is straight, solid and the crew cleaned daily."
