FAQ

Excavation questions from Barrhaven homeowners.

Do I need excavation for a new interlock job?

Usually yes — a proper base requires digging out, re-compacting, and adding crushed stone. Skipping it is why patios settle. We include excavation in hardscape quotes where it's needed.

Can you fix a yard that holds water?

Yes — water pooling is an excavation and grading problem. We cut swales, re-grade low spots, and add catch basins to move water away from the house.

Can you do side yards and townhome lots in Barrhaven?

Yes — many Barrhaven properties are townhomes with narrow side yards. We plan access, material drops, and drainage around tight spaces every week.

What's the best patio for a Barrhaven backyard?

Interlock is the go-to: it handles freeze-thaw, drains well, and stands up to constant use. We'll size it to how you actually use the yard — not a standard template.
