Paver Walkway Installation
Connecting your spaces with paver walkways and pathways designed for function and style.
Gio was GREAT to deal with. He let me explain what i wanted and together we came up with a plan. His attention to detail is exceptional. His work and materials are of the highest quality. If there were any questions or issues, he promptly addressed them. The crew went over and above in the clean-up. I m so glad I went with his company.
💯 % on top with communication, fast, efficiency, clean up and EXACTLY what I envisioned! Listened and surprisingly did things I didn’t ask for. Like move our personal items to spots I showed him why I wanted landscaping there. The crew was respectful and on top of it!
Giovanni and his team did an excellent job with our landscaping project. They handled the demo of existing stone, trees and bushes in addition to installing a new border and plants. The crew was very efficient and did quality work. They even accommodated a couple of last minute changes I requested and didn’t hesitate. I would recommend Tooscape for any size project.
Topscape did quick and easy work of pir new fire pit! We are extremely with the price and quality of work.
Highly recommend Topscape landscaping for any of your yard projects. Geo was great to work with and they did a great job of laying sod and cleaning up everything when they were done.
Giovanni and his crew did a great job on trimming and mulching! The price was right and so was the quality of work. The crew came in and was very professional and courteous too. I would use them again in the future.
I have worked with Topscape for several years now, being a senior citizen I’m a little more picky than some, and I without equivocation this is one of the best land scapping companies in the area. They are cost-effective , reliable, and really know what they’re doing. I would hire them long before some of the other companies in the area. If you’re looking for a quality professional company, you can’t go wrong with these guys
The men from Topscape Landscaping & Lawncare did an amazing job!!! Highly recommended giving Giovanni a call for all your landscaping needs.
Great Job, Yard looks great . Highly recommended.Thanks
Great experience with Topscape.
I had let my yard get a bit out of control so I contacted Topscape Landscaping to come do a fall clean up to get it back in order. I was very impressed in all aspects, from the initial response to get a quote, to the quality of work and the speed with which they got it done. Everyone has been friendly and professional and skilled. What more could you ask for?
Topscape replaced our old railroad tie retaining wall. It was incredibly reasonable pricing and Giovanni was excellent with communication. When they started work, they completed everything in a timely manner, even repairing the steps between the walls that wasn't part of the bid, and thoroughly cleaning the driveway and street of dirt and gravel. We highly recommend Topscape!
Just had one of their wrapped vehicles run through a red light and almost T-bone me they should probably reconsider who they get to drive their vehicles originally was a one star review the owner reached out to me and is addressing the driver of the problem
Great company, easy to work with and flexible, very reasonable pricing and the work looks great. Please see the before and after pics. I will be recommending to others and using their services in the future.
They did an AWESOME job. We couldn't be happier. They provided an estimate ON THE SPOT! We didn't have to wait a week for just an estimate. Our job had its challenges due to current patio that was there and had to be taken out, but they made it look beautiful. They were very meticulous. The workers were prompt and friendly. Cleanup was awesome. Can't say enough good thinks about them.
This company did a great job transforming my jungle of the backyard into something I can enjoy again.
Quick response and great work at a fair price.
Very impressed with communication, promptness, pricing, and quality work. Highly recommend.
We hired Topscape Landscaping to do some re-grading around our house and to bury our down spouts. Not only did they return our quote quickly, they completed the job in 2 days! That included them putting our existing landscaping (brickwork) back! They were professional, very knowledgeable, and soo nice to work with. Extremely impressed!! Cannot recommend them enough!!!
This company did a great job on what we requested. Very accommodating. They moved their schedule, gave pair pricing, worked hard. They were one of the best parts of a crazy project.
The Topscape crew removed a dead tree followed by adding mulch and plants to the area at the end of our lot. They did an excellent job at a very reasonable cost.
Topscape Landscaping were very professional and very easy and accommodating to work with! Loved the suggestions that Giovanni made with our project. Giovanni and his team were very courteous and helpful and answered any questions we had while they were working on our landscaping project. They were also very mindful of our newly laid sod and were very meticulous with cleaning up afterwards. Communication with Giovanni by texting and email was very responsive. Will highly recommend to others and use Topscape Landscaping for future projects.
We've used Gio and his team for two different projects. Both times were great experiences. Good communication, transparent with pricing, and delivers great outcomes. There's a reason they don't have anything lower than a 5-star review. We'll be reaching out to Topscape again for any future projects!
They were super patient, respectful, and communicative throughout the entire process. The work was absolutely stellar and I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking for landscaping work! They built an entire retaining wall and replaced my rotted stairs in about a week (barring the raining weather). I asked for a shortened timespan due to the failing wall and they delivered in SPADES! Thank you, Giovanni!
I am writing to express my appreciation for the exceptional service provided by TopScape Landscaping. The retainer wall is beautiful and it meets all our expectation. In addition, the landscaping in our backyard went above and beyond and we were so grateful for the extra care you provided. Your team's dedication, hard work ethic and attention to detail has set the benchmark for excellence in landscaping services. Once again, thank you for your outstanding work. Sharon & George Meister
Very professional, patient, artistic and great work ethics of entire team.. loved the work and end product with reasonable pricing!
Mr. Giovanni Cedeno, Topscape Landscaping and his crew did a 5-star job. I am incredibly pleased with his quick response to requested spring clean-up, which also included a fresh top mulch to cover my flower beds and bare landscape. They are easy to work with, very thorough, an excellent landscaper at what they do at a very fair cost.
The Topscape Team did an amazing job on my backyard woodline. The weeds and leaves had overtaken part of the yard and they cleaned up to my property line along the entire backyard. Giovanni and his crew were very professional, and the price was right. I highly recommend this company and I would definitely use them the again.
It was a pleasure getting to work with Topscape! Giovanni was top notch at communicating when the team would be present to work on our retaining wall. Throughout the process he asked questions and communicated with us to be sure we were happy with the final product. His team worked tirelessly and finished a large job in 5 days. We are beyond happy with the finished product and how clean they left the space after they were finished. I’d highly recommend Topscape to anyone looking for landscaping/retaining wall needs. I would love to use Topscape again if we have any other needs arise!
Gio and his team addressed my needs extremely fast and the service was done immediately! They sent me pictures to see the work before they left as well as made sure I was satisfied with the work. Thank you!
We can’t thank Gio and his team enough at Topscape! We had a company fail us on 8 properties for snow removal. Gio and his team were able to clean up the disaster the old contractor left us and has earned our business moving forward. I highly recommend this company if you’re looking for quality and honest work!
Highly recommend this company. Customer service was outstanding and the work completed was a 10 out of 10. They were a blessing to me and are definitely a blessing to the quad cities. Do not hesitate to give them your business!!!
The BEST and I don't say that easily!! Today you don't get kind and honorable customer service and I received both. They took us on as a new customer in the middle of the unprecedented storms we are having. Showed up when they said they would and dug out 2 days worth of blizzard at a very, very fair price. Giovanni was very kind and when they arrived, for their second plowing, they spoke to us to make sure everything was okay. I just cannot say enough positive things about my interactions with this company!!!
This company was very professional and did an excellent job with landscaping my front yard. I am excited about using them to do my backyard in the spring.
Topscape was a bit more expensive than others but I worked on large construction jobs for 40 years and have learned that generally you get what you pay for. I paid the extra and received a very professional job that was well worth the money. They met or exceeded all my expectations. They somehow even managed to clean up the street and driveway of all the top soil. Can’t even tell they were there. I would highly recommend them.
Topscape did a great job on our retaining wall and landscaping project. Strong recommend if you're looking for quality work.
Did a great job making our vision for our front yard become a reality. They worked quickly and efficiently. Made sure I was still able to access my garage and driveway during the process. If they ever needed to go to our backyard they always made sure to close the gate again so my dogs wouldn’t escape.
Giovanni and his crew did a great job on my lawn. He designed a great look all around my house. Highly recommend to use them. You will not be disappointed.
Topscape landscaping did an awesome job installing a retaining wall. I will definitely be using them again for my landscaping projects. The guys are polite and know what they are doing!
Top notch! From start to finish these guys were great. I was always informed of the progress and details. These guys are seriously the best! Thank you guys for a job well done. Definitely exceeded my expectations!
Have used Topscape for two different projects. The crew works hard and does the job right. They’re respectful of your property, clean up after themselves, and do a great job. Communication is great and timelines and budgets are kept. Will use again and always refer.
They did a great job putting up a retaining wall, fence, and landscaping. Professional staff and did a nice job cleaning-up after the job was done. Highly recommend them!
We couldn’t be more pleased with the work Giovanni and his crew did on our front yard. We love our beautiful new two tier wall and the regrading of our hillside will make it so much easier for us to mow. Beautiful new plants too! 😊 Giovanni and his crew were skilled, friendly, hard working and paid attention to detail. Definitely worth the ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Giovanni and his team did excellent work on our retaining walls / flower beds. Extremely pleased with the work that was done. Giovanni is professional, responsive and ensured that the work was done in a timely manner. I highly recommend this business!
Giovanni and his team did an outstanding job on our yard! They were skilled an meticulous with their work. The job was finished in a timely manner. The site was completely clean when they were done. We highly recommend Topscapes.
I highly recommend them for any landscaping needs you may have. Our back yard was a mud pit. After they put down the new sod, our back yard looks the best it ever has. The entire crew was wonderful and professional. So happy with the finished product!!!!
Topscape installed Holland paver edging and mulch for our flower beds, and our experience with them was terrific! Gio was very responsive in both quoting and scheduling the work. His crew (Josh, Adrian and Jason) is very talented and made sure the finished job was exactly what we wanted- and it looks great! I would highly recommend this company!
Would recommend this business to everyone! Very professional, friendly, and quick.
Giovanni and his crew just completed a wall that will enclose a new garden. He is very responsive, and he and his crew are very professional and efficient. I love the finished project and will hire him for future work.

1. Consultation & Site Evaluation
We start with a walkthrough of your property to understand your goals, measure the space, and identify any slope or drainage concerns.

Our team develops a layout tailored to your home’s style and needs—whether it’s a welcoming front entry, a winding garden path, or safe access to outdoor areas.

Medium Sized Walkways

Paver Walkway FAQ
How wide should a walkway be?
For comfort and safety, most residential walkways should be at least 3 feet wide. This allows two people to walk side by side. For front entryways or high-traffic areas, 4–5 feet is recommended for a more spacious feel.
Do I need a permit to build a walkway?
In most Quad Cities neighborhoods, simple walkways do not require permits. However, if your project includes structural elements such as large retaining walls, major grading, or changes near city easements, permits may be needed. We’ll advise you on requirements for your specific property.
Can lighting be added to a walkway?
Yes. We can integrate low-voltage or LED lighting into your walkway design. This improves both safety and curb appeal by illuminating paths, steps, or landscape features at night.
What materials can be used for walkways?
We install walkways using a variety of durable materials, including concrete pavers, paving stones, natural flagstone, and poured concrete. Pavers are the most popular choice because of their design flexibility, strength, and ease of repair.
How is the ground prepared for a new walkway?
Proper base preparation is the most important part of a long-lasting walkway. We excavate the soil to the correct depth, add layers of compacted gravel, and ensure proper grading for drainage. Cutting corners in this stage leads to shifting or sinking pavers over time.
Can you rebuild or replace an old paver walkway?
Absolutely. If your existing walkway is sinking, uneven, or outdated, we can lift the old pavers, rebuild the base properly, and reinstall or replace the surface. This is often more cost-effective than starting from scratch and gives you a refreshed, stable walkway.
How long does a paver walkway last?
With proper installation and maintenance, a paver walkway can last 25–50 years. Individual pavers can also be replaced if one gets damaged, which makes pavers more durable and repairable than poured concrete.
Are paver walkways low maintenance?
Yes. Aside from occasional sweeping and joint sand replenishment, paver walkways require minimal upkeep. Sealing can also be applied for added protection against stains and weather.
