Paver Walkway Installation Project in Maryville, IL

Paver Walkway Installation Project in Maryville, IL

At Creekside Landscapes, we love helping homeowners transform their outdoor spaces into something both beautiful and practical. Recently, we had the opportunity to do just that for a homeowner in Maryville, IL. Their goal was simple but important: create an attractive, long-lasting walkway from the backyard to a gated area. They wanted something that would not only serve as a durable path but also complement their home’s style and landscaping.

We began with a consultation to understand exactly what they wanted for their outdoor space. After discussing their needs, we recommended a paver walkway for its unbeatable strength, style, and low maintenance. Once all the design details were finalized, our team installed the walkway with precision. To finish the project, we spread grass seed over any disturbed areas and covered them with straw, ensuring new grass would grow in seamlessly.

The first step of this walkway construction project was to meet with our clients for a consultation.

The first step of any project is to understand exactly what the client wants to achieve. We scheduled a consultation at their property to discuss their goals, preferences, and any specific requirements for the new walkway. This meeting allowed us to see the existing layout of the yard, determine the best route for the walkway, and explore paver options that would complement the home’s style.

During our conversation, we reviewed different paver styles, colors, and patterns, and discussed how the walkway would integrate with the surrounding landscaping. By the end of the consultation, we had a clear plan in place to move forward with a design that was both functional and visually appealing, and we were ready to begin construction.

We Installed a Paver Walkway Leading From the Backyard to the Gated Area

With the design approved, our crew began the installation process. We started by preparing the ground, ensuring it was level and properly graded for drainage. Once the base was ready, we carefully laid the chosen pavers in the agreed-upon pattern, making precise cuts where needed to ensure a perfect fit along edges and corners. This new walkway connected the backyard to the gated area, making it easier for the homeowners to move between spaces while also enhancing the overall appearance of the yard. The paver material they selected was not only attractive but also durable enough to withstand years of foot traffic and varying weather conditions.

The last step of this walkway installation project was to spread grass seeds and cover them with pine straw to restore the yard.

After the walkway was installed, there were areas along the patio and throughout the yard that had been disturbed during construction. To restore the lawn and promote healthy new grass growth, we spread high-quality grass seed in these areas.

To protect the seed, retain moisture, and encourage germination, we covered the seeded spots with a layer of pine straw. This step not only helps the grass establish more quickly but also improves the overall look of the yard during the regrowth period. In addition to addressing the spots impacted by the walkway installation, we also applied seed and pine straw in other parts of the yard to promote a more uniform and lush lawn throughout the property.
