What happens here

To address a grade discrepancy between the driveway and the back patio, the walkway was designed with a stepped down approach. Ledgestone steppers were used to create these transitions. The primary pavers for both the walkway and patio are Unilock Treo, noted for their smooth, textureless finish. The walkway features a distinct Motani outer banding, which provides a clean and defined edge.

Goal: Install a paver walkway with integrated steps to manage changes in ground elevation.
