Paving Stone Contractor in Linden Woods, Winnipeg

Linden Woods homeowners know the struggle: the executive homes built here in the 1980s and 90s are beautiful, but the original hardscaping is failing. Located between Waverley and Kenaston, this neighborhood sits on shifting clay soil that snaps concrete driveways and causes "entrance sink" near front steps.

At The Pavingstone Pros, we specialize in the "Linden Woods Refresh." We replace tired, spalling concrete driveways with engineered stone driveways that instantly update the curb appeal of your home while fixing the drainage issues common in this area.

Modernizing the Executive Suburbs

Large-Format Driveway Updates

The trend in Linden Woods is moving away from the "exposed aggregate" of the 90s to large, clean stone slabs. We install modern driveway systems (using stones like Barkman Broadway or smooth-face pavers) that complement the Tyndall stone and stucco facades common on streets like Wingate and Brentcliffe.

Clay-Proof Base Construction

Linden Woods sits on heavy "gumbo" clay. Standard bases often fail here. We use a "Deep-Excavation" protocol, removing extra clay and installing heavy-duty geotextiles to separate your new patio from the shifting soil below.

Pool Deck & Patio Restoration

Many Linden Woods backyards feature pools or large entertainment zones that have settled over time. We specialize in lift-and-relay restoration and complete patio overhauls to make your outdoor space safe and level again.

Linden Woods Spotlight: The Brentcliffe Transformation

Modern large format paving stone driveway Brentcliffe Drive Linden Woods Winnipeg

Transforming a dated 1990s entrance into a modern statement on Brentcliffe Drive.

This executive home on Brentcliffe Drive had a classic Linden Woods problem: the original exposed aggregate driveway was cracking and sinking at the garage apron. The homeowners wanted to ditch the "dated 90s" look for something clean and contemporary.

The Design Choice:

We selected a Large-Format Smooth Paver in a monochromatic grey scale. This clean, linear look instantly modernized the home's exterior, replacing the busy patterns of the past with sleek sophistication.

The Technical Fix:

Because of the heavy clay water retention in this area, we installed a Geogrid-Reinforced Base. This industrial mesh distributes the weight of SUVs and trucks across the base, preventing the "tire rutting" that often happens on softer clay subgrades.

Stabilizing "The Woods"

Linden Woods soil is notoriously heavy. When wet, it expands; when dry, it shrinks. This movement cracks concrete. Interlocking stone is the superior choice here because it is a flexible pavement system.

  • Flexible Joints: Unlike rigid concrete, our paved surfaces can absorb minor ground movements without cracking.
  • Geotextile Separation: We use a heavy-duty fabric to prevent the clay from swallowing your gravel base—the #1 cause of sinking driveways in this area.
  • Proper Grading: We correct the "negative grade" often found in older Linden Woods homes, ensuring water runs to the street, not your foundation.

Linden Woods Hardscaping FAQ

Q: My concrete driveway is heaving. Is stone better?
A: Yes. Stone is a "flexible system." If the ground moves, the stones move with it rather than snapping. Plus, stone can be re-leveled; cracked concrete cannot.

Q: Do you work in Linden Ridge and Whyte Ridge too?
A: Yes. We service the entire southwest quadrant, including Linden Woods, Linden Ridge, and Whyte Ridge.
