187th Street North St. Pete Walkways
Water on the walking surface
Walkways on 187th Street North pick up roof water. A downspout dumps on the path, a hose bib drips at the gate, and the old sand-set joints open into a stripe of weeds. The fix is not a wider paver. It is a base that stays, a slope that moves water off the walking line, and a splash detail at the downspout.
We rebuild the run on compacted aggregate, pitch it off the house, and set a small splash collar or drain at the downspout so the discharge does not excavate the joint. Hose-bib drip gets a short fall to the yard. The border is restrained so edging does not roll when a cart cuts the corner.
