Burien uneven patio repair contractor

Homeowner’s Issue

Burien yards commonly show uneven patios from seasonal rain, clayey soils, and slopes that direct water under paving. Heavy winter rains and poor drainage near downspouts or raised beds let soil settle, heave, or wash away, which lifts or tilts pavers and concrete slabs.

Many homes in the area also sit on gentle slopes or terraces near Seahurst Park and the Highline corridor, so patios built without proper base or edge restraint are more likely to move. Landlords and homeowners want safe, low-maintenance outdoor spaces that drain well and stay level for tenants, entertaining, and curb appeal.

Addressing the root causes — surface runoff, compacted or washed-away base, and nearby tree roots or ivy — prevents repeat problems. We focus on sustainable solutions that restore function and reduce future maintenance without herbicides or harsh chemicals.

Our Quality Service

We inspect patio grade, base depth, edge restraint, and nearby drainage in person. Repairs use mechanical leveling, re-compacting aggregate, and sustainable backfill to stabilize slabs and improve runoff.

Work is done to minimize disruption, improve safety, and leave a neat finish that reduces future maintenance and keeps water moving away from foundations.

What’s Included

  • Full site inspection and written estimate.
  • Lifting, re-leveling, and resetting pavers or slabs.
  • Rebuilding base with compacted gravel and sand as needed.
  • Edge stabilization to prevent future movement.
  • Final cleanup and landscape tidy-up.

Optional upgrades:

  • Mulch + landscape fabric for adjacent beds.
  • Organic weed control and moss management (no herbicides).
  • Haul-away vs. green bin / curbside disposal choices.

Before & After / Expectations

Allow 24–48 hours for small repairs to settle, longer for full base rebuilds. After repair, water management is key: keep downspouts directed away, check for pooling, and avoid heavy loads while the base compacts. Watch for moss or ivy regrowth near shaded, damp areas and remove early to prevent undermining edges.

FAQs

  • How long does a typical repair take? Most small patio lifts finish in one day; full rebase projects can take 2–3 days.
  • Do you use chemicals? No — we use sustainable, mechanical, and organic methods only.
  • Will repairs stop settling forever? Proper base and drainage greatly reduce settling, but regular checks are recommended.
