Walkway Installation in Chanhassen, MN

Manufactured pavers are best for formal, high-traffic entryways because they are perfectly uniform and provide a completely level walking surface. Natural flagstone is ideal for winding garden paths where you want a more organic, rustic look. Both materials are incredibly durable when installed over our engineered Class 5 aggregate base.

For a primary front entry walkway in the West Metro, we highly recommend a width of 4 to 5 feet, which comfortably allows two people to walk side-by-side. For secondary garden paths, side-yard access, or stepping stone trails, a width of 3 feet is usually sufficient.

We intentionally select premium pavers and natural stones with textured, slip-resistant surfaces that provide natural traction. However, any surface in Minnesota can become icy. We recommend using sand or salt-free, concrete-safe de-icers (like Magnesium Chloride) to melt ice without degrading the finish of the stones.

Yes. If the pavers themselves are in good structural shape, we can perform a highly cost-effective "lift and relay" service. We pull up the shifting stones, excavate and re-compact the failing sub-base, level the bedding sand, and reinstall the original pavers perfectly flat. This modularity is one of the biggest long-term benefits of pavers over poured concrete.

Yes. Permeable interlocking concrete pavements (PICP) are designed with wider joints and an "open-graded" crushed stone base. This advanced system allows heavy rainwater to filter directly into the ground rather than running off into your lawn or Lake Minnetonka. It is an excellent choice for managing drainage and meeting strict municipal impervious surface limits.
