Lucasville properties tend to run bigger, which means more room for a real outdoor living space and more ground to grade before you get there. HHS Contracting builds paver patios, walkways, retaining walls, and fire pits across Lucasville and all of Scioto County. Call (740) 357-9020 for a free estimate.

Why the Base Matters More Than the Pavers
Lucasville sits on clay-heavy soil that swells wet and shrinks dry, which is exactly the condition that lifts a poorly based patio. We excavate to solid subgrade, lay a minimum of six inches of compacted gravel, compact in lifts, screed the bedding layer, and lock the perimeter with edge restraint before the polymeric sand goes in the joints. A patio built on a thin base looks fine in October and is waving at you by March. That base is what you are actually buying, and it is the first thing a cut-rate crew shortchanges.

A flat, at-grade patio generally does not require a building permit. You will need one for a covered patio, a retaining wall over four feet tall, or any electric or gas line run out to the patio. HHS confirms requirements with the Scioto County building department before starting.
Most patios in the 200 to 400 square foot range take three to five working days. Retaining walls, fire pits, and tight site access add time, and wet clay can push the schedule.
Yes. HHS covers all of Scioto County, including Portsmouth, Wheelersburg, New Boston, West Portsmouth, Lucasville, Minford, Sciotodale, Franklin Furnace, South Webster, and McDermott.
In southern Ohio freeze-thaw, usually yes. Concrete cracks and the patch never matches. Pavers flex with ground movement, and a settled section can be pulled, re-based, and reset. We install both.
