Driveways, Hardscape & Masonry in Annandale

Driveway, walkway, step, and patio replacement for Annandale homes, many of them built in the postwar decades.

Working in Annandale

Annandale grew quickly after World War II, and many homes here are ranches, split-levels, and colonials from the 1950s and 1960s. Much of the original concrete and asphalt is decades old: driveways that have cracked and sunk, walks that have tilted, and stoops that have pulled away from the door. Replacing them properly starts with the base underneath.

Joseph Cash comes out from Vienna to look at every job, explains what is causing the damage, and gives a written estimate. Our own crew handles tear-out, base work, and installation. Every job carries a 5-year workmanship warranty, paver installs add a 15-year no-settlement warranty, and we use only paver brands with a lifetime manufacturer warranty.

Building in Annandale: what to know

Fairfax County, not a town

Annandale is an unincorporated part of Fairfax County, so permits and zoning go through Fairfax County Land Development Services. The county lists on-grade patios and driveways as not needing a building permit, but retaining walls over a set height and work near streams have their own rules. We confirm with the county what your project needs before quoting.

Postwar housing stock

Neighborhoods such as Columbia Pines and Holmes Run Acres date from the late 1940s and 1950s, and much of Annandale followed in the next two decades. On homes that age, original driveways and stoops were often poured on thin bases. We expect to rebuild the base, not just the surface, and price it that way.

Streams and soils

Holmes Run and Accotink Creek tributaries run through Annandale, and lots beside them can fall inside a Resource Protection Area, where Fairfax County requires an exception for new patios. The county also maps shrink-swell soils that can move footings. We check both maps before designing a patio, wall, or driveway.

Annandale: common questions

Who issues permits in Annandale?

Fairfax County. Annandale is not incorporated, so Fairfax County Land Development Services handles permits. Many driveways and on-grade patios do not need a building permit, but some walls and stream-side work do. We confirm before quoting.

Should I repair or replace my old concrete driveway?

If the slab has sunk, cracked across, or heaved, replacing it with a new base usually lasts far longer than patching. If the problems are surface wear on a sound slab, repair can make sense. Joseph tells you which at the estimate.

Can my stoop be fixed if it has pulled away from the house?

Usually it needs rebuilding rather than patching, because the gap means the footing underneath has settled. We remove the old stoop, build a proper footing, and rebuild in concrete, brick, or stone to suit the house.
