White Center replace broken pavers
Homeowner’s Issue
In White Center and nearby West Seattle, yards face heavy winter rainfall, compacted glacial till soils, and shady corners that hold moisture—conditions that accelerate paver cracking and settling. Many homes sit on gentle slopes or older compacted bases that were not installed with adequate drainage, so freeze-thaw cycles, root growth, and runoff from roofs or driveways often lift or break pavers. Weeds and moss find footholds in open joints, and uneven stones become trip hazards and collect water near foundations.
Homeowners tell us they want a durable, low-maintenance surface that keeps water flowing away from the house, looks tidy from the street (especially around Westwood Village and Roxhill Park), and reduces routine upkeep. Landscape Repair here means diagnosing base issues, redirecting drainage, and using sustainable, non-chemical methods to stabilize surfaces. A thoughtful replacement restores curb appeal, prevents future repairs, and makes paths, patios, and driveways safer for kids and guests while fitting with Seattle’s wet, mild climate.
