White Center Landscape Repair — Leveling Uneven Pavers Cost
Homeowner’s Issue
In White Center, homeowners face persistent issues that make pavers go uneven: heavy, frequent rainfall, compacted glacial till and clay soils, moss and weed growth, and sloped yards that funnel water. Many patios and walkways were installed without proper base depth or edge restraints, so freeze–thaw cycles and seasonal saturation cause settling and trip hazards. Shady corners near fences and mature evergreens develop moss and heave faster, while sunny, exposed areas fade and shift differently.
Drainage is a big local factor — slow percolation and surface runoff from neighboring slopes (common around Highland Park and parts of West Seattle) often undermines paver bases. Homeowners want safe, attractive, low-maintenance surfaces that shed water correctly and hold up in our wet winters. Typical homeowner needs are improved drainage, safer transitions to lawns or driveways, reduced weed pressure, and attractive curb appeal without ongoing chemical treatments. Sustainable, mechanical repairs and organic controls are preferred here; we focus on correcting base and grading problems so pavers stay level and require minimal follow-up maintenance.
Our Quality Service
We assess site conditions, identify root causes (poor base, drainage, slope), and repair pavers with long-term stability in mind. Work includes lifting pavers, correcting base materials, regrading for positive drainage, and resetting pavers with proper edge restraint. We use recycled base materials where practical and organic, physical weed control—no herbicides.
Benefits:
- Safer walking surfaces and reduced trip hazards.
- Improved drainage to protect foundations and planting beds.
- Better curb appeal and property value.
- Low-maintenance results built for Seattle’s climate.

Before & After / Expectations
Expect some noise from compactors and trucks, and temporary access restrictions while we work. Typical small to medium jobs finish in one to two days; larger patios or complex drainage fixes may take longer. We protect nearby planting and clean up thoroughly each day.
Care tips after Landscape Repair:
- Water newly adjusted planting beds only as needed; avoid puddling on pavers.
- Sweep joints seasonally and pull any finger-weeds promptly.
- Keep nearby trees pruned to reduce root heave and debris.
- Re-sand joints after winter if gaps reappear.
FAQs
Q: How long will paver leveling last in our climate?
A: With correct base and drainage, expect many years of stable service; routine joint maintenance helps longevity.
Q: Do you use herbicides for joints and beds?
A: No—only mechanical and organic methods to control weeds and moss.
Q: Will you fix drainage that comes from a neighbor’s slope?
A: We can improve on-site drainage and suggest solutions; larger off-site runoff may need additional civil measures.
Q: Do you dispose of old base material?
A: Yes—we offer haul-away or green bin/compost options.
