Compact Backyard Patio in East York

The property: [e.g. a semi near Topham Park, 20 x 35 backyard, mature maple in the corner, old patio stones heaved by roots.]

The brief: [e.g. dining space for six, keep the tree, stop re-levelling stones every spring.]

What we found: [e.g. structural roots within the old patio footprint; the design moved the patio 4 feet and saved both.]

The build: [e.g. large-format slabs with a paver border, base floated over the root zone per arborist guidance, 1.5% slope away from the house.]

The numbers: [e.g. 280 sq ft, 3 working days, $[X,XXX].]

The result: [Short close + photos.]
