Retaining walls, paver patios, and driveway extensions — designed and installed with grading that keeps them from shifting, cracking, or pooling water.
Tell us about your hardscape project.
Every hardscape starts with a properly graded, compacted base — so patios stay level, walls stay put, and water moves away from your home instead of pooling against it.
We've built retaining walls, patios, and driveways across Greer, Greenville, Spartanburg, and the surrounding Upstate, and know how the soil and slope here behave.
From backyard patios to custom home builder partnerships and commercial properties, we scale the work to the job.
A patio or retaining wall is only as good as what’s underneath it. Skip the grading and base prep, and you’ll be dealing with shifting pavers, cracking concrete, and water pooling against your home within a year or two. Shade Tree Landscaping has spent over 10 years designing and installing retaining walls, paver patios, and driveway extensions across Greer, Greenville, Spartanburg, and the surrounding Upstate. Every project starts with getting the base right before a single paver goes down.
Whether you’re adding a patio for entertaining, extending a driveway, or need a retaining wall to hold back a sloped yard, we combine proper grading, solid base compaction, and clean finish work so your hardscape looks good and performs for years — not just for one season.
Custom-designed patios built on a properly graded and compacted base, so they don't shift, crack, or collect water.
Engineered walls that hold back soil on sloped properties, built to stay put for years, not seasons.

We offer maintenance plans to keep the landscape surrounding your hardscape looking its best year-round.
A patio or wall that looks great on installation day isn’t worth much if it’s shifting or cracking within a year. Skipping proper grading and base compaction is the most common cause of hardscape failure — pavers heave, concrete cracks, and retaining walls lean or fail under pressure. Getting the excavation, base, and drainage right from the start means your hardscape holds its shape and value for years, not just until the first hard freeze or heavy rain.
