What Is a Base Correction?

A base correction involves repairing the foundation beneath your pavers. When the base shifts or sinks, it causes surface unevenness that not only looks unsightly but can also create tripping hazards and drainage issues. Our expert team carefully removes the affected pavers, levels and re-compacts the base, and reinstalls the pavers with precision to ensure long-term stability and performance.
