Details That Matter Most

Your project begins with layout planning to determine the best route from driveway to door, patio to garden, or entry to backyard. You'll review material samples and discuss width, edging, and any curves or steps needed to navigate slopes. Site measurements ensure accurate estimates and material ordering for your project in Hackettstown.


Robert B. Scalera Mason Contractor excavates the path area and installs a compacted base layer for stability. Edging is set to hold materials in place and define borders. Surfaces are leveled and finished with joints or seams that allow for natural expansion and contraction.


Final steps include sealing or joint filling depending on your material choice. You'll get care instructions for keeping your walkway clear of debris and managing winter ice. The completed path provides safe, reliable access and adds lasting value to your home's outdoor layout.

How Our Process Works

Homeowners often ask about material longevity, repair options, and how the walkway will perform in different weather conditions. Here are answers to common questions about building durable, attractive pathways.

Which material lasts longest for walkways?
Concrete, stone, and pavers all last decades when installed correctly. Concrete offers seamless surfaces, stone provides natural texture, and pavers allow individual replacement if damage occurs.
Can you repair cracked or uneven walkways?
Yes. Damaged sections are removed, the base is repaired, and new materials are installed to match or complement your existing path in Hackettstown.
How do you ensure proper drainage?
The walkway is graded to slope away from structures and direct water toward lawn or drainage areas. Base layers include compacted gravel that allows water to filter through without pooling.
Will the walkway shift over time?
Proper base compaction and secure edging prevent shifting. Materials are set with tight joints or mortar bonds to maintain alignment through freeze-thaw cycles common in North Jersey.
How wide should a walkway be?
Standard widths range from three to four feet for single-file traffic and four to five feet for side-by-side walking. Custom widths accommodate specific property layouts and access needs.

Your new walkway will be ready for daily use as soon as curing or settling is complete and final cleanup is finished.
