Build Outdoor Spaces That Last and Function

Lock In Hardscapes in Union

You need durable hardscapes when patios crack, retaining walls lean, or walkways settle unevenly into Union's clay soils. K H Custom Remodeling designs and installs patios, retaining walls, walkways, steps, and outdoor living structures that account for local soil types, grades, and drainage challenges from the first stake in the ground. Every paver is set on compacted aggregate, every wall is pinned with proper geogrid, and every joint is filled to resist frost heave and water infiltration.

You'll work with a team skilled in custom carpentry and grading, so your outdoor environment flows seamlessly from deck to patio or from driveway to fire pit. Support extends to repairs of failing hardscapes or erosion issues that compromise stability. Whether you're adding a backyard entertaining area or upgrading a commercial entrance, the focus remains on durable materials and structurally sound installations.

Schedule a design consultation to explore options for your Union property and receive a detailed plan tailored to your vision and site conditions.

Why Locals Choose This Option

Your hardscape project begins with a site survey to measure slope, test drainage, and map underground utilities. In Union, where backyards often slope toward structures or collect runoff from neighboring lots, this step ensures water flows away from your patio and walls stay plumb through freeze-thaw cycles.

K H Custom Remodeling excavates to the required depth, installs compacted stone base in four-inch lifts, and uses a plate compactor to achieve 95 percent compaction or better. You'll see edge restraints installed to prevent paver shift, joint sand swept and compacted, and sealant applied for stain resistance. Retaining walls are built with interlocking blocks, drainage pipe behind the backfill, and stepped footings that anchor into stable soil.

Once the installation is complete, you have an outdoor space that handles foot traffic, furniture weight, and weather without cracking or settling. Your investment pays off in years of low-maintenance beauty and reliable function, whether you're hosting gatherings or simply enjoying your yard.

What to Expect When You Book

Union property owners often ask about material choices, timelines, and what happens when existing hardscapes fail. These answers help you plan your project with confidence.

What materials work best for retaining walls in Union?
You'll typically choose from concrete block, natural stone, or segmental retaining wall systems, all selected for their ability to handle lateral pressure and resist frost heave common in Kentucky winters.
How long does a patio installation take?
Most residential patios are completed in three to five days, including excavation, base prep, paver installation, and joint sanding. Larger projects or complex designs may extend the timeline.
Can you repair a sunken walkway without replacing it?
Yes, pavers are lifted, base material is added and compacted, and pavers are reset to the correct grade. You'll discuss whether full replacement or repair is more cost-effective during the estimate.
Do you install drainage with hardscapes?
Absolutely. French drains, channel drains, and catch basins are integrated into the design to prevent water from pooling on patios or undermining retaining walls.
What's the difference between concrete and paver patios?
Pavers allow for easier repairs, better drainage, and more design flexibility. Concrete cracks over time, while pavers can be lifted and reset if the base settles.

When your outdoor space needs to match your lifestyle and withstand Union's weather year after year, professionally installed hardscapes deliver the durability and aesthetics you're after. Reach out now to schedule your design consultation and bring your vision to life.
