This paver patio and walkway installation in Bloomfield Hills, MI is a strong example of thoughtful master planning and phased landscape development.
The project was designed with a long-term vision, allowing construction to be completed in stages over the past two years, with additional work continuing into the current season.
Our team at Grow Garden and Landscape Design, focused on building a structurally sound and visually refined foundation that will support future landscape and planting installations.
This Bloomfield Hills project was approached with a phased installation strategy, ensuring flexibility while maintaining design consistency.
Each phase was carefully planned to contribute to the overall landscape vision, allowing the homeowner to expand and enhance the outdoor space over time without compromising quality or flow.
The current phase establishes the core hardscape framework, which will guide the remaining elements in future stages.
The installed portion of this paver patio and walkway installation in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan includes approximately 630 sq ft of custom paver patio along with 410 sq ft of connecting paver walkway, creating a cohesive and functional outdoor living layout.
For this project, we utilized premium Oaks Nueva slab and Unilock Beacon Hill style pavers, selected in a champagne color tone to achieve a clean, modern, and timeless aesthetic that complements the home’s architecture and surrounding landscape.
The entire paver patio construction process was completed with a strong focus on durability, precision, and long-term performance. Our installation included:
This professionally executed paver patio and walkway system not only enhances the visual appeal of the outdoor space but also ensures a long-lasting, low-maintenance hardscape solution designed to withstand Michigan’s harsh weather conditions, including freeze-thaw cycles.
A key feature of this paver patio installation in Bloomfield Hills, MI is the construction of a raised patio system, designed to add elevation, dimension, and functionality to the outdoor living space.
The raised structure not only enhances the visual appeal of the backyard but also improves usability by creating defined levels for different activities, including access to the lawn and a designated lower fire pit area.
To ensure seamless transitions between elevations, we installed custom-built steps that connect:
These transitions were carefully designed for both safety and visual flow, making movement between spaces natural and convenient.
For structural support and long-term durability, we utilized Unilock Pisa XL wallstone with caps in a Fieldstone color, a premium retaining wall system known for its strength and refined appearance. These retaining wall elements serve multiple purposes:
In addition to the hardscape construction, our team incorporated custom egress solutions and drainage systems where required. Proper drainage is critical in any raised patio and retaining wall installation, especially in Michigan, where water management and freeze-thaw cycles can impact long-term performance.
By combining engineered base work, high-quality Unilock materials, and expert installation techniques, this raised patio system delivers both structural integrity and a high-end finished look, making it a standout feature of the overall landscape design.
To elevate the final appearance, clean dimensional border accents were installed throughout the patio and walkway.
These borders:
Attention to these details ensures a polished and cohesive outdoor environment.
This phase of the project establishes the structural backbone of the outdoor space, creating a strong and well-defined foundation for future landscape development.
With the core hardscape framework now in place, upcoming phases will focus on enhancing the space through:
