Paving and masonry in Cedar Grove
Essex County. A short drive from the yard in Montclair.
Working in Cedar Grove
Cedar Grove sits up on the Watchung ridge, which makes it one of the hillier towns we work in and one where drainage decides the outcome of most jobs.
On a sloped lot, water arrives from uphill whether you planned for it or not. Driveways need pitch that sends it somewhere sensible, and retaining walls need drainage behind them rather than just good looking block. Both are the difference between a surface that lasts and one that moves.

Questions we get asked here
Why does drainage come up so much in Cedar Grove?
The town sits up on the Watchung ridge, so water arrives from uphill whether you planned for it or not. Pitch and wall drainage decide the outcome of most jobs here.
Do retaining walls need drainage behind them?
Always, and on a slope it is not optional. A wall without drainage is holding back saturated soil, which is far heavier than dry soil and freezes in winter.
