Patio Construction in East Aldine, TX.

Create an Outdoor Area That Adds Real Value

Your East Aldine backyard should be where you relax after work, not a mud pit you avoid after every Houston rainstorm. I see homeowners with unusable outdoor space because their old patio is cracked, settling, or never existed in the first place. Meanwhile, you’re paying property taxes on square footage you can’t even use. That concrete slab your builder poured 15 years ago? It’s probably cracking because they skipped proper base work and drainage.

I’m Marco Lopez with AMS Pavers Services LLC. We’ve spent 10 years building patios throughout East Aldine, Aldine, and South Houston that actually survive Houston’s clay soil and weather. The difference between a patio that lasts 20+ years and one that fails in five comes down to excavation depth, base material, and drainage things most contractors skip to save time. Call now and let’s talk about transforming your backyard into space you’ll actually use.

About AMS Pavers Services LLC

AMS Pavers Services LLC isn’t some national franchise sending random crews to East Aldine. We’re local contractors who’ve built hundreds of patios in your neighborhood over the past decade. Marco Lopez started this company because he got tired of seeing homeowners get burned by contractors who didn’t understand Houston’s challenging conditions: the clay soil that expands and contracts, the drainage issues from intense rainfall, the settlement problems that destroy patios within years.

We know East Aldine specifically. We’ve worked on properties near Aldine Mail Route, close to Keith-Wiess Park, and throughout the 77032 area. When you call us, you’re getting someone who’s seen what works and what fails in your exact neighborhood.

Driveway Construction in East Aldine, TX.

That driveway you've been patching every year? It's not getting better. East Aldine's clay soil moves constantly with moisture changes expanding when wet, contracting when dry. If your contractor didn't account for this with proper base material, expansion joints, and adequate thickness, you're stuck in endless repair cycles. I've replaced dozens of driveways in the 77032 area that were failing because someone cut corners on base prep or excavation depth trying to save a few hundred dollars upfront.

We build driveways throughout East Aldine, Aldine, and South Houston engineered for longevity. Our work includes 6-8 inches of excavation, proper base compaction, and strategic sloping that directs water away from foundations. Whether you need basic concrete or stamped decorative finishes, the preparation work determines whether your driveway lasts 20+ years or needs replacement in five. Most driveway problems trace back to contractors who rushed foundation work that nobody sees but everyone relies on for decades.

Common Driveway Problems:

  • Progressive cracking from clay soil movement and inadequate base preparation
  • Water pooling near foundation because slope directs water wrong direction
  • Settlement creating uneven surfaces that damage vehicle suspensions
  • Edges breaking down from insufficient thickness or missing reinforcement
  • Width inadequate for modern vehicles making entry and exit difficult
  • Staining and surface deterioration from skipping proper sealing

Patio Construction in East Aldine, TX.

Here's what happens to most patios in East Aldine: they crack within 3-5 years, develop low spots where water pools after rain, or settle on one side creating dangerous uneven surfaces. Why? Because contractors pour concrete directly on clay soil without proper base preparation, ignore drainage completely, or use wrong thickness for Houston conditions. I've torn out and replaced dozens of failed patios where the original work was doomed from day one.

Our outdoor patio construction starts with proper excavation usually 6-8 inches depending on soil conditions in your specific East Aldine location. We install compacted base material, engineer slope that directs water away from your foundation, and use appropriate concrete thickness with control joints. Whether you want basic concrete, stamped concrete patio designs, or decorative finishes, the foundation work determines longevity. We've built patios throughout Aldine and South Houston that still look perfect years later because we don't cut corners on prep work that nobody sees but everyone depends on.

Problems We Fix Every Week:

  • Cracked concrete from settlement and clay soil movement
  • Standing water in low spots creating mosquito breeding grounds and slip hazards
  • Patio slabs sinking on one side from poor soil compaction underneath
  • Surface scaling and spalling from freeze-thaw damage and moisture penetration
  • Too small for actual furniture arrangement and family gatherings
  • Wrong slope directing water toward house instead of away from foundation

Porch Construction in East Aldine, TX.

Your front porch takes brutal punishment from Houston weather scorching summer sun, temperature swings, heavy rain, and moisture from below. Most porches I see in East Aldine start showing serious problems within 7-10 years: cracking, spalling, settlement, or separation from the house. Usually it's because someone poured a slab without proper footers, ignored drainage slope, or used inadequate concrete thickness. A failing porch isn't just ugly it threatens your foundation connection and creates liability issues.

We build porch construction projects throughout East Aldine that are engineered correctly from the footer up. Proper excavation below frost line, correct slope away from the house, control joints positioned strategically, and sometimes vapor barriers depending on your property's specific moisture conditions. Our front porch concrete work near Keith-Wiess Park and throughout the 77032 area accounts for Houston's clay soil movement and intense weather. It's detailed work that requires understanding local conditions, not just following some generic installation manual written for different climates.

Porch Issues We Handle Regularly:

  • Settling and pulling away from house creating dangerous gaps
  • Cracking from inadequate footer depth or missing footers entirely
  • Water draining into foundation instead of away from structure
  • Surface deterioration from moisture penetration and weather exposure
  • Structural problems from contractors who skipped engineering requirements
  • Complete failure requiring expensive tear-out an

Terrace Construction in East Aldine, TX.

Terraced outdoor spaces solve real problems in East Aldine: they manage slopes, create multiple usable outdoor levels, control erosion, and add serious property value when engineered correctly. But here's what most people don't realize: each terrace level needs proper retaining wall support and coordinated drainage. Get the engineering wrong, and water from upper levels overloads lower walls or you end up with erosion channels destroying everything. I've rebuilt complete terrace systems where the original contractor treated each level as separate projects without thinking through the overall water management.

Our terrace construction integrates retaining walls, drainage systems, and hardscape installation into one engineered solution. We've done elevated terrace projects throughout East Aldine and Aldine with garden beds, entertainment areas, and slope stabilization that's survived Houston's worst storms. It's not just about aesthetics, it's about engineering a system that manages water properly, prevents erosion, and creates functional outdoor space. Our outdoor terrace paving work near Aldine Mail Route and throughout South Houston combines structural engineering with design that actually enhances how you use your property.

What Usually Goes Wrong:

  • No drainage coordination between terrace levels causing water buildup and failures
  • Retaining walls inadequate for load from upper terrace soil and water pressure
  • Erosion channels developing between levels because nobody planned water flow
  • Settlement issues from poor soil compaction at different elevations
  • Disconnected design where levels don't integrate with overall landscape
  • DIY or budget work where each phase was done separately without comprehensive plan

Masonry Concrete Repair in East Aldine, TX.

Not every cracked patio or driveway needs complete replacement. If the foundation remains structurally sound but the surface shows damage, proper masonry concrete repair extends life by 10-15 years at a fraction of replacement cost. But diagnosis matters, understanding whether damage comes from settlement, tree roots, poor original work, or normal aging determines whether repair makes sense. Wrong assessment means repairs fail quickly, wasting your money.

We handle concrete patio resurfacing and repair throughout East Aldine including crack filling, surface restoration, joint repair, and partial section replacement. Our approach identifies underlying causes, not just surface symptoms. Sometimes repair makes perfect sense; sometimes we're honest that replacement costs less long-term. I've repaired patios near Keith-Wiess Park and walkways throughout the 77032 area where homeowners got another decade of use from proper repair work instead of spending thousands on unnecessary replacement.

Repairs We Actually Perform:

  • Progressive cracking from ongoing settlement or root growth
  • Surface spalling where concrete flakes or scales off
  • Uneven sections that can be ground down to eliminate trip hazards
  • Joint failures caught before they cause larger structural problems
  • Corner breaks and edge deterioration from water erosion
  • Localized damage where section replacement makes economic sense

Retaining Wall Construction in East Aldine, TX.

Sloped yards in East Aldine aren't just inconvenient; they're constantly eroding, threatening foundations, and making your property partially unusable. Every heavy rain washes more soil away, and that "minor" drainage issue becomes a foundation repair costing $15,000. Most retaining wall failures I see come from contractors who didn't install drainage pipes behind the wall or used wrong backfill material. Houston's clay soil creates significant pressure when saturated walls without proper drainage don't last.

We've built retaining walls throughout East Aldine for a decade that actually survive storm seasons. Our work includes proper excavation to stable soil, drainage systems with weep holes and drainage pipe, and engineering for Houston's expansive clay. Whether you need block, stone, or concrete walls near Keith-Wiess Park or throughout the area, we engineer solutions based on your specific slope, soil conditions, and drainage patterns. Call (786) 539-9211 before next storm season makes your erosion problem worse and more expensive.

Issues We See Constantly:

  • Severe erosion washing away landscaping and threatening structural stability
  • Sloped yards completely unusable for outdoor activities or safe play areas
  • Water runoff during storms flooding low areas and neighbor properties
  • Failed retaining walls leaning or collapsing after heavy rain events
  • Need to create level terraces for gardens or entertainment spaces
  • Property line drainage disputes with neighbors from uncontrolled runoff

Walkway Construction in East Aldine, TX.

Cracked, uneven walkways throughout East Aldine create genuine safety hazards and trip points that threaten elderly visitors, delivery drivers, and your own family members. Tree roots lift concrete, clay soil causes settlement, and poor drainage creates slippery surfaces after rain. Your front walkway should safely guide people to your door, not threaten lawsuits and emergency room visits. Most walkway problems stem from inadequate excavation, skipped base material, or ignoring drainage entirely.

We build residential sidewalk installation projects throughout East Aldine that address Houston's specific challenges. Proper excavation removes problematic tree roots, correct base material prevents settlement, and strategic slope prevents water accumulation. Whether you need front entry walkways near Aldine Mail Route or garden pathways connecting outdoor spaces in South Houston, we engineer solutions that last. Our walkway work accounts for aggressive root systems common in established East Aldine neighborhoods, ensuring your new pathway doesn't fail within years.

Walkway Issues We Fix:

  • Tree roots lifting concrete creating dangerous trip hazards
  • Settlement from poor base prep causing uneven surfaces
  • Water pooling making walkways slippery and dangerous after rain
  • Cracking within 2-3 years from clay soil expansion and contraction
  • Width inadequate for comfortable passage or accessibility needs
  • Edge deterioration from water erosion and inadequate reinforcement

Masonry Concrete Removal in East Aldine, TX.

Sometimes concrete is beyond repair, too deteriorated, severely settled, or so poorly built that fixing costs more than replacement. But concrete demolition isn't DIY work. Homeowners in East Aldine hit irrigation lines, damage foundations, or create mountains of debris they can't dispose of. Professional concrete removal means locating utilities first, breaking concrete safely, and handling disposal properly so you're not stuck with problems.

We handle complete concrete tear-out throughout East Aldine including patios, driveways, walkways, and old retaining walls. Whether you need removal to fix dangerous conditions or to prepare for new construction, we manage everything from utility location through final site cleanup. Our demolition work near Aldine Mail Route and throughout South Houston clears the way for new projects without damaging landscaping, irrigation systems, or structures you're keeping.

When Removal Makes Sense:

  • Concrete deteriorated beyond cost-effective repair options
  • Settlement so severe the surface is dangerous and worsening
  • Tree root damage throughout making repair impossible
  • Complete redesign where existing layout doesn't work anymore
  • Wrong slope directing water toward foundation requiring rebuild
  • Failed contractor work that needs complete do-over for proper installation

Masonry Concrete Staining in East Aldine, TX.

Plain gray concrete doesn't have to stay boring. Professional concrete staining transforms ordinary patios, walkways, and driveways into custom finishes that dramatically improve property appearance. Unlike paint that chips and peels under Houston sun, quality staining penetrates concrete creating permanent color. We use acid stain for variegated earth tones and water-based stains for uniform contemporary colors and different effects for different aesthetic goals.

Our decorative terrace concrete finishing and staining work throughout East Aldine includes complete surface preparation, expert application, and protective sealing. Proper prep is critical staining won't work on sealed concrete, contaminated surfaces, or concrete with certain admixtures. We've stained patios near Keith-Wiess Park and walkways throughout the area that still look great years later because we don't skip surface prep or use cheap sealers that fail quickly under Houston weather conditions.

What Staining Actually Fixes:

  • Boring gray concrete that looks cheap and dated
  • Oil, rust, and vehicle stains destroying curb appeal
  • Faded or worn areas from years of traffic and weather exposure
  • Need to match new concrete sections to existing colored areas
  • Desire for expensive custom appearance on reasonable budget
  • Structurally sound concrete that's aesthetically tired and outdated
