Walkway Design Considerations
Creating the perfect walkway requires careful consideration of several important factors to ensure both functionality and aesthetic appeal.
Width and Accessibility
Walkway width depends on intended use and accessibility requirements. Standard residential walkways are typically 3-4 feet wide, while main entrance walks should be at least 4-5 feet wide to accommodate two people walking side by side. We ensure all walkways meet or exceed accessibility guidelines when required.
Proper Slope and Drainage
Walkways must have adequate slope for drainage while remaining safe and accessible. We typically design walkways with a 1-2% slope away from buildings to prevent water pooling and ice formation. Cross-slopes are minimized to ensure stability for all users.
Surface Texture for Safety
Safety is paramount in walkway design. We use appropriate surface textures to provide slip resistance without creating maintenance issues. Options include broom finishes, light sandblasting, or stamped textures that provide traction while remaining easy to clean.
Integration with Landscaping
Walkways should complement your existing landscaping and provide logical connections between different areas of your property. We consider sight lines, plant locations, and future landscaping plans to create walkways that enhance your overall property design.
Decorative Options
Transform functional walkways into beautiful landscape features with our decorative concrete options:
Stamped Concrete Patterns
Add visual interest with stamped patterns that mimic natural stone, brick, or tile. Popular walkway patterns include flagstone, slate, and cobblestone designs that complement various architectural styles.
Colored Concrete
Enhance your walkways with integral color or surface-applied stains. Choose colors that complement your home's exterior and surrounding landscape for a cohesive design.
Decorative Borders
Add definition and visual appeal with contrasting borders, geometric patterns, or integrated planters. These details create custom walkways that reflect your personal style.
Exposed Aggregate
Create beautiful, slip-resistant surfaces with exposed aggregate finishes. This option showcases natural stone aggregates while providing excellent traction for safe walking.

We can coordinate with your lighting contractor to integrate pathway lighting during construction, ensuring proper placement and protection of electrical components.
