FAQ’s

Do you install retaining walls for homes in Kennett Square, PA?

Yes, we specialize in both segmental retaining walls and also CMU walls (Concrete Masonry Unit).

What patio materials do you use?

We work with natural PA Flagstone a lot, both dry laid and wet laid. We are also authorized installer of pavers such as Techo Bloc, Belgard, and Unilock.

Do you install artificial turf for homes in the Brandywine Valley Area?

Yes we have installed artificial turf grass, putting greens, and also pet turf.

Do I need a permit for hardscaping in homes in Kennett Square, PA?

In many cases, yes. Kennett Township generally requires a permit if you are altering the footprint of your property or adding impervious surfaces like a new patio or driveway extension.

We can assist with the permit application process with you, submitting the necessary grading and stormwater plans to the township office on Burrows Run Road so you don’t have to worry about the paperwork.

How do you handle drainage for sloped yards?

Our rolling hills in the Kennett Square Area are beautiful but can cause water runoff issues. We use French drains, dry wells, and strategic regrading to manage flow.

For steep slopes, we often recommend natural stone retaining walls to stop erosion while creating usable flat tiers for planting or seating. We can also extend downspouts underground to move water far away from your foundation.

What plants are deer-resistant for this area?

We design with the local ecosystem in mind. For Kennett Square properties, we prioritize ‘deer-resistant’ natives like Boxwoods, Ornamental Grasses, and Bleeding Hearts.

While no plant is 100% deer-proof, we select tough varieties that deer tend to avoid, ensuring your investment looks great year-round without constant fencing or sprays.

Do you offer a warranty on your hardscaping work?

Absolutely. We stand behind our craftsmanship with a warranty on all hardscaping installations. Because we build to strict industry standards (using proper base depths and compaction), our patios and walls are engineered to withstand Pennsylvania’s freeze-thaw cycles for decades. We will provide full warranty details during your consultation.

More FAQ’s

Do you work on historic homes in the Kennett Square Borough?

Yes. We have decades of experience renovating outdoor spaces for historic properties in the Borough and surrounding areas. We specialize in using natural materials—like flagstone and reclaimed brick—that match the authentic, historic aesthetic of Kennett Square while providing modern durability.

How do you handle permits in Kennett Township vs. the Borough?

The permitting requirements differ depending on whether you are located within Kennett Square Borough, Kennett Township, New Garden Township, or East Marlborough Township. We can assist you with the entire permitting submission process for you, ensuring your new patio, pool deck, or retaining wall complies with all local impervious coverage limits and setbacks.

My yard is hilly. Can you still build a functional patio?

Absolutely. The rolling terrain of the Brandywine Valley is beautiful but can be challenging for flatwork. We specialize in building structural retaining walls and multi-tiered patios that turn sloped yards into usable entertainment spaces, properly managing drainage to protect your home.

What hardscape materials look best with Kennett Square architecture?

For the classic stone farmhouses found in Unionville and Kennett, we often recommend Natural Pennsylvania Bluestone, Techo-Bloc, or Belgard products that mimic the look of “Brandywine Granite.” These materials blend seamlessly with the local architecture rather than looking like a “new” addition.

Do you serve areas outside of the immediate Kennett Square borough?

Yes. While we are active in the town center, we frequently design and build extensive outdoor living projects in Unionville, Chadds Ford, Longwood, and the larger estates throughout the 19348 and 19311 zip codes.
