"Clifford designed a beautiful patio that he did for me over two years (due to the expense).  The first summer (2013) they did the hardscaping.  They put in the patio, and two beautiful seating wall areas.  One that provided privacy from the neighborhood and the other privacy for the hot tub area.  The next summer (2014) was the landscaping.  Clifford and crew came back and put in several trees and shrubs to provide more privacy, and gave the patio area a really professional polished look.  We have it built into the "plans" that he could come back yet again and put lighting into the seated walls, and space to include an outdoor kitchen.  It is nice that Clifford is able to develop a design that can be added to over time.  His crew is super nice and helpful!  Gabe was his right hand man on parts of my project, and he is wonderful to work with too.  I have highly recommended Richmonds Landscaping to everyone who has asked me who has created my beautiful outdoor living area. <br />"

"Forever Green did a professional job. They provided architectural plans with the overall layout of the wall and landscaping. They selected landscaping that met our requirements and assisted us in selecting a retaining wall brick that we liked. They completed the project in about a week. After the work, they reseeded and covered the grass that was driven over or covered during the construction. This last bit was an unexpected plus as I did not ask for it and they did not specify it in their quote The project manager emailed me daily during the project to keep me up to date and solicit my input during construction. <br /> I called three contractors for proposals and Forever Green was the only one who came out to my place to provide an estimate and plan. Two others I called (one recommended by two professional landscapers) never showed up to give me a quote. I made these contacts in June when everyone was busy. As such, we had t wait 8 weeks for Forever Green to get us into their schedule. <br /> I gave Forever Green a and quot;Band quot; on price because they did go over their original budget by $1,400. They were professional in their request and we did negotiate the overage. I suppose I did not have to pay anything over the original proposal . I did end up agreeing to pay for the extra materials but not the labor, which I thought was a fair compromise since they did the work so well. As I had no other quotes, I cannot compare this cost to any other bids. <br /> In the end, my wife and I love the retaining wall and landscaping. We enjoy the additional space it gives us. The brick we chose is beautiful, especially with the landscape lighting we have since added. I recommend Forever Green and would hire them again. <br />"

"They scheduled the job the next week and arrived on schedule, did the work quickly and professionally, cleaned up the yard well. <br /> We are happy so far with the work and its rained a couple of times since and no water in our basement. Of course we won't know for sure if all the water problems are resolved until we go through several months of rain. <br /> I thought the cost was a little on the expensive side but we didn't find anyone else to come out and give us an estimate so we really don't know. <br />"

"It went without a hitch. Brad A. worked with us on possible solutions through five estimates. When we decided what we wanted, it was done quickly and professionally. They were here and gone in under six hours--on a Saturday, no less. This was a small job, so I have trouble getting other hardscapers to even pay attention. I happened on ADR in an internet search, and I'm glad I did."

FAQs for brick and stone patios, walks, and steps installation projects in Cedar Rapids, IA

When cleaning your flagstone patio, begin by gently hosing off loose dirt and debris. Use a mild solution of white vinegar and water or diluted dish soap to scrub the surface with a soft-bristled brush. Avoid using abrasive tools, such as wire brushes, as they can damage the stone’s seal and finish. This careful approach effectively removes mold and grime while preserving the natural beauty of your patio.

Flagstone naturally offers a neutral palette that includes shades of grey, black, red, yellow, brown, and tan, and its inherent color cannot be altered. Choosing varieties like bluestone provides a subtle bluish tint that complements many exterior designs. These natural hues enhance curb appeal and create a refined, timeless look in your outdoor space, ensuring a sophisticated finish with minimal upkeep.

Flagstone for a patio must have a minimum thickness of 1.5 inches to reliably support furniture and foot traffic. Using stone that is two to three inches thick is recommended to ensure lasting durability. The increased thickness prevents cracking under load and enhances long-term performance. Investing in thicker flagstone provides superior stability and resistance to weather conditions, ensuring your outdoor space remains both safe and attractive.

You can paint a flagstone patio by using a high-quality, outdoor elastomeric latex paint designed for heavy foot traffic. Painting not only refreshes the patio’s appearance but also creates a waterproof barrier that protects the stone from damage. Regular reapplication every one to two years maintains its durability and visual appeal, ensuring your patio remains both stylish and well-protected.
