Bothell Paver Patio & Walkway Repair Services

Hey there, Bothell homeowners! 🌲 If your pavers are looking more like a wavy ocean than a flat patio, it’s time for a little TLC. Those uneven surfaces, gaps, or mossy patches aren’t just quirky traits—they’re signs of underlying issues like a failing base or poor drainage. At Neat & Tidy, we specialize in lifting, relaying, and re-grading paver patios and walkways to ensure they drain properly, sit tight, and keep your ankles safe from trips!

What’s the Problem?

Here’s what might be going on with your pavers:

• Sunken or heaved pavers due to our lovely Bothell winters and clay soils.
• Trip lips & loose bricks from washed-away bedding sand.
• Puddling at the house because of incorrect grading or runoff into garden beds.
• Edge failure—that plastic edging has popped out, and your borders are wandering.
• Moss, weeds, and ants thriving in open joints because your polymeric sand has long disappeared.

How We Fix Pavers (the right way)

Here’s our step-by-step process to get your pavers back in shape:

1. Inspect & Map Issues — We’ll take a close look at drainage, slopes, tree roots, and settled zones to pinpoint the problems.
2. Lift & Sort — Carefully pull pavers, maintaining the original pattern, and set aside any damaged pieces.
3. Repair the Base — We dig out soft spots and replace them with compacted crushed rock (no pea gravel here!).
4. Reset Grade — We’ll screed concrete sand to ensure water drains away from structures at the right angle (⅛–¼” per foot).
5. Relay Pavers — We’ll put everything back together with tight joints and staggered seams, matching your existing pattern perfectly.
6. Edge Restraint — We’ll secure borders with new edging or a concrete toe to prevent them from moving.
7. Compact & Set — Using a plate compactor, we’ll set everything in place and top up the joints.
8. Polymeric Re-sand — We’ll broom in, vibrate, and clean up with a blower before misting to activate the sand.
9. Drainage Options — If needed, we can add channel drains, catch basins, or French drains to improve site drainage.
10. Clean & De-moss — A low-pressure rinse, safe moss treatment, and efflorescence cleaning will leave your pavers looking fresh.

We don’t cover up problems. If roots are causing headaches, we’ll prune them or reroute the path instead of just hoping for the best!

What We Work On

We’re equipped to handle a variety of surfaces, including:

• Concrete pavers, clay bricks, and modular slabs
• Front walks, side-yard ribbons, cozy backyard patios, trash can pads, and alley approaches
• Tight-access repairs in Bothell’s charming hills and alleys

Our Annual Maintenance Plan (Your Hardscape’s Routine)

Keep your hardscape in tip-top shape with our annual maintenance plan:

• Joint Health — Regular inspections and sand top-ups before the rainy season to keep everything in place.
• Moss Control — Seasonal treatments and promoting sun/air circulation where possible.
• Edge Patrol — Early detection of border creep to re-secure them as needed.
• Drainage Check — Clean channel and basin grates to keep everything flowing smoothly.
• Spot Lifts — We tackle early dips before they become major headaches.

We’re all about low-maintenance landscaping—fewer problems mean less work for you!

Service Cadences (Pick What Fits)

Choose a schedule that suits your needs:

• Quarterly — Spring and fall resets with two light tune-ups.
• Bi-Monthly — Ideal for shaded/mossy or high-traffic areas.

(If you’ve just had fresh repairs or have heavy shade, start with monthly visits for 60–90 days, then taper off.)

What Annual Maintenance Includes

Your annual maintenance package includes:

• Power sweeping + low-pressure rinsing (no joint blasting, promise!)
• Polymeric re-sand for any opened joints.
• Edge restraint checks and necessary corrections.
• Spot lift/relay for emerging dips and lips.
• Drainage inlet cleanout and moss/algae treatment.

Why Annual Maintenance Matters

Here’s why you should consider annual maintenance:

• Safety — Fewer trip hazards and less slime on shaded paths.
• Longevity — Tight joints mean less water infiltration and fewer repairs in the long run.
• Cleaner Look — Sharp edges and even planes beat patchwork fixes any day.
• Lower Cost — Small, regular corrections can save you from costly full tear-outs.

2. Plan & Schedule — We’ll nail down drainage, patterns, and any additional services you might want.
