Paver patios, driveways and walkways in Kiawah Island
Pave the Way designs and installs paver patios, driveways and walkways in Kiawah Island, SC, along with retaining walls, fire pits, outdoor kitchens, pergolas and drainage. Every project starts with a 3D layout of your own property, so you approve the look before we build. We work with pavers and block from Techo-Bloc and Belgard and with natural stone such as travertine and bluestone.

Paver patios in Kiawah Island
Interlocking paver patios over a compacted stone base, designed in 3D first. Sandy soil, salt air and a high water table shape the base, joint sand and finish we choose. -
Paver driveways in Kiawah Island
Paver driveways built on a deeper, heavily compacted base for vehicle loads. Salt, sun and standing water are hard on driveways, so base depth and drainage come first. -
Walkways and steps in Kiawah Island
Paver and natural-stone walkways and steps that stay level and safe. Sand and moisture make walkways slick, so we choose textured surfaces and plan drainage. -
Retaining walls in Kiawah Island
Segmental block retaining and seating walls built with drainage behind them. Coastal soil and water pressure make drainage behind every wall essential. -
Fire pits in Kiawah Island
Fire pits and outdoor fireplaces built into a patio, with seating planned together. Wind off the water affects where a fire pit and seating should sit. -
Outdoor kitchens in Kiawah Island
Block-and-veneer outdoor kitchens with openings for your appliances. Salt air is hard on hardware and appliances, so we plan materials and openings with that in mind. -
Pergolas in Kiawah Island
Wood pergolas on concrete footings for shade and structure. Coastal wind calls for larger posts, deeper footings and hardware built for salt. -
Brick work in Kiawah Island
Mortar-set brick patios, borders and steps in the pattern you approve first. Humidity and salt make sealing and drainage important for brick surfaces. -
French drains in Kiawah Island
French drains and yard drainage built into patio and driveway projects. Low ground and high tides make drainage part of nearly every coastal project. -

Quarterly and yearly soft washing, joint re-sanding and resealing. Salt, humidity and shade feed algae and staining, so regular washing and sealing pay off.
