Signs You Need Professional Hardscaping
Hardscaping is the ideal solution for transforming an underutilized or problematic yard into a functional, low-maintenance living area. If you find yourself facing common backyard frustrations, a professionally installed patio or walkway may be the perfect long-term answer for your Memphis home.
Consider hardscaping if you notice these signs:
- Poor Drainage or Muddy Areas: Water consistently pools in your yard, creating muddy patches and making the space unusable after rain.
- Erosion or Sloping Issues: You have a sloped yard where soil or mulch constantly washes away, or you need a stable, level area for outdoor living.
- A Cracked or Sinking Existing Patio: Your current concrete slab or paver patio is failing, showing significant cracks, sinking, or becoming uneven and hazardous.
- High-Maintenance Lawn: You are tired of the constant mowing, watering, and fertilizing required for a grassy area and want a beautiful, durable alternative.
- Lack of Usable Space: Your backyard is just grass, and you lack a clean, stable surface for grilling, dining, or placing outdoor furniture.
A well-designed hardscape project, such as a paver patio or retaining wall, directly solves these issues. It creates a defined, durable surface that properly manages water, controls erosion, and expands your home's functional living space.
Our Hardscaping Installation Process
At Green Earth, we build patios to last. Our reputation is built on dependable work, and we apply our meticulous, long-term planning to every hardscaping project. We understand that a patio's longevity depends entirely on what is underneath it, a step we never compromise on.
Our process focuses on stability and durability:
- Thorough Site Assessment: We first analyze your property's grade and soil, identifying potential drainage challenges before we begin.
- Proper Foundation Excavation: Our team excavates to the correct depth, ensuring we remove all organic material that could decompose and cause sinking.
- Compacted Aggregate Base: We install and meticulously compact a thick aggregate base. This step is critical for preventing the sinking and shifting that plagues poorly built patios.
- Precise Installation: We install your chosen materials—pavers, stone, or blocks—with expert precision, ensuring level surfaces and tight joints.
- Sustainable Drainage Solutions: We can integrate permeable pavers or other eco-conscious solutions to manage water runoff effectively.
We provide honest communication throughout the process, delivering a finished hardscape that is as durable as it is beautiful, backed by our A+ BBB rating.
DIY Patios vs. Professional Installation
Building a patio seems straightforward, but it is a complex structural project. The most common DIY failure is improper base preparation. Without correct excavation and compaction using specialized equipment, a patio will quickly sink, heave, or become uneven, leading to costly repairs.
Professionals understand the technical demands of the Memphis environment. They calculate the proper slope for drainage away from your home's foundation, preventing water intrusion. They also select materials durable enough to withstand seasonal temperature swings without cracking or spalling.
A professional installation is an investment in safety and longevity. Experts ensure the final surface is level, stable, and secure, eliminating tripping hazards. This expertise guarantees the patio not only looks right but performs correctly for decades, ultimately saving money and frustration.

Patios That Fit the Memphis Lifestyle
A well-planned patio offers more than extra space; it creates a place to enjoy the outdoors in a way that fits your routine. At Green Earth, we design patios around how your space is used, considering slope, layout, drainage, and daily movement.
Beyond functional layouts, we help you choose paver and stone options that hold up against Memphis’ humid summers and changing weather. We check sun patterns and water runoff to ensure your patio stays useful and inviting for years. By matching materials and finishes to the property’s style, we help homeowners and businesses add value as well as curb appeal.
That could mean a paved seating area just outside the kitchen, a cozy fire pit corner for relaxing, or a quiet nook tucked near the garden. For commercial spaces, we have created everything from shaded break areas and HOA community spots to welcoming storefront patios that blend into the landscape.
Add Landscaping, Lighting, or Drainage for a Cohesive Result
Because we also handle landscape design, irrigation, and drainage, many clients choose to bundle their hardscaping project into a complete site improvement. This way, plantings, lighting, and water control all work together from the start.
We often integrate lighting and plant beds to highlight new patios and walkways. Building these elements at the same time creates outdoor living areas that combine style with practical use. In Memphis, we coordinate drainage matters, and we make sure all hardscape projects work with your property’s natural water flow to prevent pooling and erosion.
