The original driveway was removed and replaced with a new broom-finished concrete surface, complete with decorative detailing near the garage. The new layout provides a cleaner approach to the home while supporting drainage and everyday vehicle use.
Stamped and colored concrete shaped these driveways, entries, and walkways into a unified decorative surface across the property. The pattern and color add visible detail without giving up the strength of a poured concrete installation.
This backyard was redesigned to create more usable space for seating, entertaining, and everyday outdoor living. The combination of paved surfaces, curved transitions, and defined gathering areas gives the yard a more functional and finished layout.
“It's going on 2 years now and I still have trouble believing that that's my backyard now. It's so beautiful. It's my safe haven, it's my Serene place, it's where I commune with God and nature.”
Deteriorated front steps were rebuilt with textured concrete risers set between the existing brick columns, and a herringbone brick paver walkway now leads to the door. Together they restore level, dependable access and tidy up the transition from the driveway.
This large exposed aggregate patio created a finished outdoor area for dining, grilling, and entertaining. The decorative stone finish adds texture and durability while complementing the home and surrounding landscape.
Exposed aggregate concrete was poured, worked, and washed to reveal a decorative stone surface across both residential and commercial patios. The result is a slip-resistant, low-maintenance finish that defines each outdoor area with texture and character.
Front porches and entry walkways were rebuilt using a mix of stamped and exposed aggregate finishes to define the approach to the home. The completed work improves access, sharpens curb appeal, and gives each entry a finished appearance that complements the existing brickwork.
A worn residential sidewalk was torn out and re-poured with proper forms and reinforcement. The new run sits level along the property, sheds water away from the home, and restores a safe path from the street to the front door.
A new poured concrete walkway now traces a cleaner path through the property, replacing a worn approach with a straight, reinforced surface. The line of the walk defines the landscape and gives the entry a more intentional feel.
The front steps and surrounding concrete were torn out and re-poured as a single, cohesive entrance. The new staircase creates a cleaner transition to the door and stands up to Michigan freeze-thaw cycles year after year.
“We designed and sold this custom step concept to our awesome customer, and our brick and block guys knocked it out of the park. We used the original brick from the house, and they look like they have been part of the house since it was originally built over 20 years ago.”
A reinforced concrete pad and steps were poured to support a residential wheelchair lift installation. The finished work provides a level, reinforced base designed for the equipment while creating safer everyday access into the home.
A residential backyard was reshaped around a full concrete basketball court, with a block retaining wall and integrated steps handling the grade change. The result is a defined play area that turns a sloped yard into an everyday outdoor amenity.
Base stone was graded and laser-leveled, then vapor barrier and rebar were tied in before pouring the pole barn's interior floor and covered porch slab. The finished slabs give the owner a level, insulated working surface built for structural, long-term use.
A heavy-duty garage slab was carefully formed and braced in preparation for concrete placement. The layout was designed to support daily vehicle and equipment use while maintaining clean elevations and perimeter lines.
On-site block work was laid out to establish the footprint for a poured concrete slab. These photos show the block layout, base stone, and forms — the prep stage that decides how square and level the finished pour lands.
A commercial building entrance received a new concrete entry pad, an integrated trench drain, and protective steel bollards. Site drainage was corrected, the building envelope is shielded from vehicle contact, and the entry now handles daily commercial traffic.
The aging roof was torn off down to the deck and rebuilt with new architectural shingles, updated underlayment, and proper flashing at every transition. The rebuilt system cleans up the exterior lines of the home and restores weather protection.
A residential roof replacement was completed with new skylights reset into the shingle field and continuous ridge ventilation added along the peak. The new system improves attic ventilation, preserves the home's natural light, and creates a clean, weather-tight roofline.
