We had a client in Chester Springs, PA, reach out to our team to improve accessibility at the front of their property. They wanted to create a seamless transition that connects the driveway to the front entrance of their house. So, this project began with a consultation to discuss their expectations for the new walkway and outdoor steps, as well as the materials. Once we had solidified the plan with them, our team moved forward with site preparation, which involved clearing any existing obstructions and properly grading the land, among other steps. From there, we meticulously installed the walkway and outdoor steps using beautiful Pennsylvania bluestones, complementing the natural stone of their house perfectly.


This Project Started With a Consultation to Discuss Our Client's Walkway & Outdoor Steps

We wanted to ensure we understood our client's expectations for their walkway and step installation, so this project started with a consultation. During this initial meeting, our team collaborated with them to plan the locations of their new walkway and outdoor steps, which is crucial to maximizing their function and creating a seamless transition from their driveway to the front entrance of their house.

Additionally, we discussed the materials they wanted to use for these features, as they wanted them to complement the home's natural stone for a cohesive aesthetic. Once we had a solid understanding of their goals and vision, we moved forward with the next steps: site preparation!

The Next Step Was to Prepare the Site for the Walkway & Step Installation

Quality site preparation is vital for the longevity of the new walkway and outdoor steps. So, we got to work establishing a clear, even foundation for the features. This involved clearing any existing obstructions, such as grass, debris, and other materials. After that, we did the necessary excavation and grading to ensure their structural integrity and proper drainage. Then, we compacted the soil and added the base for the walkway and outdoor steps. With this prep work complete, we could start their installation!


We Meticulously Installed Their Walkway & Outdoor Steps to Improve Accessibility

The final step of this project was to install our client's new walkway and outdoor steps! We constructed a walkway from the driveway leading to the front door of their house, seamlessly connecting these areas to improve accessibility. High-quality Pennsylvania bluestones were used, which complement their home. We also arranged the pieces in an ashlar pattern to elevate the walkway's visual appeal. Then, we installed light stone edging along it to define its shape.

In addition to the walkway, we also installed their outdoor steps from Pennsylvania bluestone slabs to ensure cohesiveness. These steps were placed closer to the garage doors to create another path that connects to their driveway, improving safety when navigating between different elevations. With these features complete, our client can now enjoy their beauty and function for years to come!
