Paver & Flagstone Patio Installation in Sacramento & Surrounding Areas
American Gardens Landscaping builds paver, manmade flagstone, and natural flagstone patios for homeowners across the Sacramento area. A patio is only as good as what is underneath it — excavated depth, a compacted base, and proper jointing decide whether it stays level for decades or starts shifting in two winters. We build the base right, then finish it beautifully. Every patio comes with our 12-month workmanship warranty. Licensed, Bonded & Insured — Lic. #1105341.
How We Build a Patio That Stays Level
- Layout and excavation — the patio shape is marked out and the area is excavated to the full build depth.
- Geotextile and drainage — fabric and drainage are placed where the site needs them, so water doesn’t undermine the base.
- Compacted base — aggregate base rock is spread and machine-compacted in lifts to a firm, level foundation.
- Bedding layer — a screeded bedding layer is laid for a perfectly even surface.
- Paver and flagstone installation — pavers or flagstone pieces are laid in your chosen pattern — herringbone, running bond, basket weave, natural random stone layouts, and more — and cut precisely at the edges.
- Edge restraints — solid edging locks the field of pavers in place so nothing creeps or spreads.
- Joint sand and finish — joints are swept with sand (polymeric sand where specified), the surface is compacted, washed, and cleaned.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why do some patios sink or shift?
A: Almost always the base: too shallow, not compacted in lifts, or no edge restraint. We excavate to full depth and compact properly, which is what keeps a patio level.
Q: How long does a patio project take?
A: Most residential patios take several days to about a week, depending on size, pattern, and site access. Your free estimate includes a clear schedule.
Q: Can you match or extend my existing patio?
A: Usually yes — we source pavers that match or complement what you have and tie the new section in cleanly.
Q: Do you warranty your patios?
A: Yes — our paver and flagstone patios carry a 12-month workmanship warranty.
Q: Do patios need drainage planning?
A: Yes. We grade and drain every patio so water moves away from your house instead of pooling on the surface.
