Serving homeowners throughout Wayne, Villanova, Bryn Mawr, Haverford, Newtown Square, Paoli and the surrounding Philadelphia suburbs.
Main Line Hardscapes designs and installs custom paver, bluestone, flagstone and natural stone patios throughout the Philadelphia suburbs. Every project is built around the conditions of the property — including excavation, base preparation, grading, drainage and how the patio connects to the home.
A beautiful patio is only as good as the ground beneath it. We don’t just lay stone; we engineer your property to ensure water flows away from your foundation and stays off your entertaining space.
We utilize advanced laser-leveling technology to ensure your patio features a “hidden pitch,” invisibly guiding water away from your home’s foundation and preventing hazardous pooling.
Say goodbye to ugly black plastic pipes across your lawn. We hard-pipe your home’s gutter system beneath the patio, terminating water into dedicated pop-up emitters or dry wells.
Pennsylvania clay is notorious for shifting. We install a multi-layered, compacted aggregate sub-base and use high-strength geotextile fabrics to prevent the “heaving” and “sinking” common in standard installations.
We specialize in permeable paver systems that manage stormwater runoff on-site—an essential feature for meeting strict “impervious surface” zoning requirements in townships like Lower Merion and Radnor.
For complex landscapes, we install sleek, low-profile drainage channels that blend seamlessly into your stonework, capturing heavy runoff before it ever reaches your backdoor.
We don’t just fix the patio area; we ensure the surrounding landscape is graded to prevent erosion, leaving your entire property drier and more functional than we found it.
01
We start by understanding the property, grading, drainage, and how the space will be used before any materials are selected or work begins.
02
A patio is only as good as what’s underneath it. We excavate, compact, and build a stable base designed to prevent shifting, settling, and drainage issues.
03
We install pavers and natural stone chosen for durability, appearance, and compatibility with the home — laid with precision and attention to detail.
04
Edges, joints, and final grading are completed to ensure the patio performs the way it should season after season.
We take a full-service approach to patio, hardscaping, and masonry projects, handling planning, construction, and finishing with an emphasis on proper preparation and long-term performance. Our work is designed to fit the property, the home, and how the space will actually be used.
Patios can fail for a number of reasons, including settling, poor drainage, inadequate base preparation, freeze-thaw movement, deteriorating joints, or failed edging. We repair and restore paver, bluestone, flagstone, and natural stone patios by first identifying what is causing the problem rather than simply correcting the surface.
Depending on the condition of the patio, the right solution may be re-leveling and resetting sections, rebuilding failed areas, improving drainage, repairing joints or edges, or replacing the patio when the underlying construction can no longer be reliably corrected. Our goal is to recommend the solution that makes the most sense for the property and provides the best long-term result.
Our portfolio includes patios designed to improve how outdoor spaces are used, with layouts and materials chosen to fit each property and lifestyle.
We are a full-scale masonry and site-development firm with the capacity to manage every architectural detail. From grand-scale estate transformations to the meticulous restoration of historic stone, our team provides a seamless, single-source solution for the Main Line’s most ambitious projects
We specialize in custom paver patios and bluestone or natural stone patios. Many projects also include integrated features such as seating walls, firepits, steps, and transitions to other outdoor living areas.
Project timelines vary based on size, materials, site conditions, and integrated features. Most patio installations take anywhere from several days to a few weeks once construction begins, which is discussed during the planning phase.
We begin with a design consultation to understand the property, scope, and goals of the project before discussing pricing. This approach ensures accurate expectations and avoids surface-level estimates.
Paver patios offer consistent sizing, clean lines, and design flexibility, while bluestone and natural stone patios provide natural variation and a more timeless appearance. The right choice depends on the home, the property, and how the space will be used.
Yes. Properties in Wayne and Villanova often require careful grading and drainage planning due to slope, mature landscaping, and existing site conditions. Proper site evaluation, excavation, base preparation, and drainage are critical to long-term patio performance. These steps are a core part of our process and are never treated as an afterthought.
Many patio projects involve grading or site adjustments. We regularly design and install patios on properties with slopes or grade changes, often incorporating retaining or site walls where needed.
