Paver And Travertine Installation Done Right

Paver and Travertine Installation

At Grass and Things Hardscaping, we install paver and travertine surfaces that make outdoor spaces look clean, finished, and built to last. If you want a new patio, pool deck, walkway, driveway, courtyard, or outdoor living area, we can help you design and build a surface that fits your home and your budget. This is not just about laying stone. It is about creating a space that drains well, holds up over time, and adds real value to your property.

We are a hands-on team with years of experience in hardscaping, artificial grass, putting greens, pavers, and travertine. Our company was built by three dedicated guys with a full-time team behind us, and we take pride in showing customers what quality work really looks like. We stay reliable, professional, and easy to work with from the first call to the final cleanup. With us, the grass is greener, and the hardscaping is stronger too.

Pavers vs. Travertine

Both options are great, but each has its own benefits. We help you choose the right material based on appearance, performance, maintenance, and budget.

Pavers are a popular choice because they are durable, versatile, and available in many colors, shapes, textures, and patterns. They work well for patios, driveways, walkways, and outdoor living spaces. Concrete pavers and interlocking pavers can create a modern look, a classic look, or something more rustic depending on the design.

Travertine is a natural stone known for its upscale appearance and cool surface underfoot. It is commonly used around pools, patios, and luxury outdoor spaces. Many homeowners choose travertine for its elegant finish, natural variation, and slip-resistant texture. It is especially popular for pool decks because it stays cooler than many other surface materials in the sun.

Our Installation Process

A strong, level, long-lasting surface starts below the top layer. That is why we focus on proper site prep and professional installation methods, not shortcuts. Our process is built to give you a finished product that looks great and performs well.

1. Consultation and site review: We learn about your goals, measure the space, and look at grading, drainage, access, and existing conditions.
2. Design and material planning: We help you choose between pavers or travertine, select colors and patterns, and plan borders, curves, and layout details.
3. Excavation and base preparation: We remove old materials if needed, excavate to proper depth, and prepare the area for a stable foundation.
4. Compacted base install: We install and compact the base material to support the surface and reduce movement over time.
5. Edge restraint and leveling: We set the edges and screed the setting layer to create an even surface and a clean finish.
6. Paver or travertine installation: We place each unit carefully, keeping lines straight, spacing consistent, and cuts neat around edges and obstacles.
7. Jointing and finishing: Depending on the material and project, we finish joints properly and complete the final details for a secure, polished result.
8. Cleanup and walkthrough: We clean the site and walk the project with you so you know exactly what was done and how to care for it.

Why Proper Base Work Matters

One of the biggest differences between a surface that lasts and one that fails early is what happens underneath. Poor prep can lead to sinking pavers, uneven areas, water problems, and costly repairs. We take base prep seriously because we want your patio, walkway, or pool deck to stay solid and attractive for years. Proper grading, compaction, and drainage planning help protect your investment.

Design Options

Your hardscape should feel like it belongs with the rest of your home. We offer a wide range of design options so your finished space looks custom, not cookie-cutter.

• Multiple paver shapes and sizes
• Travertine in different tones and finishes
• Running bond, herringbone, basket weave, and modular patterns
• Borders, banding, and accent inlays
• Straight lines, curves, and radius work
• Steps, landings, and transitions
• Integration with turf, planting beds, and drainage features

Benefits of Paver and Travertine Installation

• Better curb appeal: A clean hardscape instantly upgrades the look of your property.
• More usable outdoor space: Turn empty or rough areas into places to relax, walk, cook, or entertain.
• Long-term durability: Quality installation helps the surface hold up to weather, traffic, and daily use.
• Low maintenance: Compared to plain concrete or worn surfaces, pavers and travertine are easier to maintain and repair.
• Improved drainage and function: A properly planned install helps water move where it should.
• Increased home value: Well-built patios, pool decks, and driveways can add market appeal and practical value.

Great for Pool Decks and Outdoor Living

Pavers and travertine are excellent choices for homeowners who want to create a more enjoyable backyard. A new pool deck can improve safety, comfort, and appearance around the water. A custom patio can give you a better place for outdoor furniture, dining, and family time. We can also tie your hardscaping into artificial grass, planters, and other landscape features for a complete outdoor design.

Repair, Replacement, and Upgrades

If you already have an old hardscape that is cracked, uneven, outdated, or no longer working for your space, we can help evaluate replacement or upgrade options. In many cases, homeowners want to expand a patio, redo a pool deck, replace basic concrete with pavers, or switch to travertine for a more premium look. We can guide you through the best next step based on your goals and the condition of the existing area.
