Paver & Turf Installation

The Best of Both Worlds

Artificial grass looks great, but sometimes a yard needs more than just turf. Combining synthetic turf with pavers, stone, and other hardscaping creates outdoor spaces that are both beautiful and functional. Walkways, patios, seating areas, and decorative borders transform a simple lawn into an inviting landscape.

We specialize in integrated paver and turf installations that bring your outdoor vision to life. Whether you want a simple paver pathway through your lawn or a complete backyard redesign with multiple hardscape features, we handle every aspect of the project from design to completion.

Design That Balances Turf and Hardscaping

The key to a great paver and turf installation is thoughtful design. Too much hardscaping makes your yard feel cold and uninviting. Too much turf with no definition looks plain and boring. The right balance creates visual interest while maintaining functionality.

Here are some popular design elements we incorporate:

• Paver walkways that guide foot traffic and protect turf edges
• Patio spaces for outdoor furniture and entertaining
• Stepping stone paths through turf for a natural garden feel
• Decorative borders and edging to define turf areas
• Fire pit seating areas surrounded by artificial grass
• Raised planter beds with pavers and integrated turf sections
• Driveway extensions and parking pads that connect to turf lawns

We work with you to understand how you use your outdoor space. Do you entertain guests? Do you need play areas for kids? Do you want low-maintenance landscaping that still looks interesting? Your answers guide the design so the finished project matches your lifestyle.

Material Options for Every Style

Pavers come in countless styles, colors, and materials. Natural stone looks rustic and organic. Concrete pavers offer clean modern lines and consistent sizing. Flagstone creates casual, irregular patterns. The options are endless, and we help you choose materials that complement your home and personal taste.

Concrete Pavers: Available in many shapes, colors, and textures. They are durable, affordable, and easy to install in precise patterns. Great for walkways, patios, and formal designs.

Natural Stone: Includes flagstone, slate, limestone, and sandstone. Each piece is unique with natural color variation. Perfect for creating organic, flowing designs.

Brick Pavers: Classic look that works with traditional and contemporary styles. Warm earth tones pair beautifully with green artificial turf.

Decomposed Granite and Gravel: Loose materials work well for pathways and decorative areas. They provide texture contrast against smooth turf surfaces.

We also combine multiple materials in one design. Turf with paver walkways and gravel beds creates layered visual interest. Mixing textures and colors makes your landscape more dynamic and appealing.

Functional Hardscaping Solutions

Pavers are not just decorative. They solve practical problems too. Heavy foot traffic wears out turf over time. Pavers in high-traffic areas protect your investment and create durable pathways that last decades.

We often install paver walkways from driveways to front doors, around side yards where people walk frequently, and in backyards leading to gates or storage areas. These hardscape elements take the wear instead of your turf, keeping your lawn looking fresh longer.

Patio spaces give you defined areas for outdoor furniture, grills, and entertainment. Building these areas with pavers instead of turf makes more sense functionally. You get a stable surface that does not compress under furniture weight, and you can use the space immediately after rain without tracking mud.

We also use pavers for drainage solutions and slope management. Retaining walls with paver caps help level uneven yards. Permeable pavers allow water to drain through while providing solid surfaces. These functional elements integrate seamlessly with artificial turf installations.

Installation Process for Combined Projects

Paver and turf projects require coordination. Both elements need proper base preparation, and they have to fit together perfectly. Doing this right takes experience and attention to detail.

We start by laying out the entire design on your property. This lets you see exactly where pavers will go and how they will look with the turf. We make any adjustments before digging begins.

Next, we excavate areas for both pavers and turf. Pavers need a compacted base of crushed rock and sand. Turf needs proper grading and drainage. We prepare both areas simultaneously so everything fits together at the correct height and slope.

Then we install the pavers first. This creates clean, defined edges for the turf. Once pavers are in place, we lay the artificial grass up to the hardscape edges. The result is tight, professional transitions with no gaps or overlaps.

Finally, we add finishing touches like edging, joint sand, and sealer. The hardscape and turf work together as one cohesive landscape.

Expanding Your Outdoor Living Space

Combining pavers and turf creates outdoor rooms that extend your living area. A paver patio surrounded by artificial grass becomes an outdoor living room. Add a fire pit with seating and you have a year-round gathering space.

Many of our Kennewick clients use these designs to maximize small yards. Instead of trying to grow grass everywhere, they create defined zones with different functions. A turf play area for kids, a paver dining space, a gravel garden bed with plants. Each zone serves a purpose, and together they make a small yard feel larger and more useful.

We also work with outdoor lighting, irrigation for real plants, and other features. Our goal is to create complete outdoor spaces that you will actually use and enjoy, not just look at from inside.

These combined installations add significant value to your property. Buyers love well-designed outdoor spaces with low maintenance requirements. The mix of hardscaping and artificial turf delivers the best of both.
