Simple Steps to Ensure a Smooth and Efficient Project

Getting Ready for Your Paver Transformation

A new paver patio is an exciting addition that will transform your outdoor living space. Before the installation team arrives at your home in Sebastian, there are a few simple steps you can take to prepare your yard. This preparation helps ensure the project starts on time and proceeds efficiently, making the entire experience smoother for you and the crew.


Clear the Project Area Completely

The first step is to completely clear the area where your new patio will be built. This includes removing all patio furniture, grills, fire pits, potted plants, yard decor, and children's toys. Providing the installation crew with a wide-open space allows them to work safely and more effectively from day one.


Plan for Irrigation and Utilities

Before any digging begins, it is very important to identify and mark any known sprinkler heads or shallow utility lines, such as those for landscape lighting or invisible dog fences. While your professional installer will call 811 to have public utilities marked, these private lines are the homeowner's responsibility. It is also a good idea to turn off the sprinkler zone in the work area.

Consider Access for Crew and Materials

A paver patio installation requires moving a lot of heavy materials, like base rock and pallets of pavers. Think about the clearest and most direct path from the street to the project area. Make sure this path is free of obstructions like vehicles, trailers, or yard equipment so the crew has easy access.


Discuss Your Landscaping Plans

Look at the plants and shrubs immediately surrounding the planned patio area. If there are any valuable plants you want to save, discuss them with your project manager at Right Way before the work begins. We can often help you carefully remove and temporarily relocate them so they can be replanted after the project is complete.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How much space does your crew need to access the backyard?

    A clear path of at least 4 to 5 feet wide is ideal. This allows for easy passage of wheelbarrows and small machinery that might be used to move heavy materials, making the job much more efficient.

  • Should I have my lawn mowed before the installation starts?

    It is helpful to have the lawn cut a day or two before the crew arrives. Shorter grass makes it easier for the team to set up, mark out the project area, and perform a thorough cleanup when the job is finished.

  • What happens if the crew finds an unmarked pipe or wire while digging?

    If an unknown private line is discovered, the crew will stop work immediately and notify you. Together, we will identify the line and determine the best course of action to proceed with the project safely. This is why marking any known lines beforehand is so helpful.
