Through our Hardscape Design and Installation service at Groundwork Outdoor Living, we create durable, elegant outdoor living spaces tailored to the Bay Area’s mild climate, diverse topography, and year-round entertaining needs.

We design and install patios, walkways, driveways, retaining walls, outdoor kitchens, and fire features using premium materials from trusted brands like Techo-Bloc and Belgard. Their extensive paver, slab, and wall collections—available in modern, rustic, and traditional styles—offer textures and colors that perfectly suit Bay Area homes, from sleek San Francisco contemporaries to East Bay craftsman and Peninsula Mediterranean designs.

Beyond beauty, our hardscapes provide functional extensions of your home for dining, gathering, and relaxation, while solving local challenges like drainage on slopes, seismic stability, and durability against fog, sun, and rain.

Our local team of landscape designers, masons, and installers—well-versed in Bay Area permits, soils, and codes—delivers precise craftsmanship and innovative design for hardscapes built to last.

We emphasize sustainable choices, including permeable pavers from Techo-Bloc and Belgard for stormwater control, recycled materials, and eco-friendly practices that meet California standards and reduce runoff.

From initial site assessment and consultation to final installation, Groundwork Outdoor Living guides you every step, delivering stunning, functional hardscapes with expertise and efficiency.
