Building a Paver Path to a Rear Accessory Dwelling in Pinellas

More Pinellas owners are adding a rear accessory dwelling or finishing a garage apartment. The path from the street or the main house to that door has to stay dry, lit, and wide enough for furniture and emergency access. PaverForge Hardscapes builds those connecting walks instead of leaving a mud strip between two buildings.

What the path has to do

  • Hold a walking pitch that still sheds Pinellas afternoon rain toward a bed or a drain, not toward either slab.

  • Stay isolated from both the main-house slab and the ADU footer.

  • Leave conduit sleeves for path lighting and a future gate operator.

  • Use a texture that stays slip-resistant when the walk is used as a rinse path after the beach.

Tight side yards

Many ADU paths run down a five-foot side yard next to an AC pad and a fence. We stage from the alley or the front drive, protect the neighbor line, and cut units to a clean soldier edge instead of butting raw cuts to the fence.

PaverForge Hardscapes designs and installs ADU connecting walks from St. Pete Beach through north county. Call 727-490-9798 with the two finished-floor elevations.
