Drainage & Grading
Grading (Slope & Pitch)
Grading is the slope built into a hardscape surface — typically a slight pitch away from the house — so rainwater runs off instead of pooling. It's set during base construction and can't be corrected afterward without rebuilding the surface, which is why it's one of the first things assessed on any project.
Why This Matters to You
Getting the grade wrong is one of the few paver mistakes that can't be patched later — a driveway pitched toward the garage or a patio that holds water after every storm both trace back to grading decided at the start of the build.
