Driveways & Walkways in Barrie, Orillia & Muskoka
We lay the path to relaxation.
At Strong Roots, driveways and walkways aren’t just functional—they’re the first impression your home makes. Our team blends expert craftsmanship with design foresight to create surfaces that are as elegant as they are durable. Whether you envision a modern entryway of linear stone or a rustic driveway framed by natural textures, we bring precision and style to every square foot.
Through 3D design tools, we help you visualize the full aesthetic of your project before the first paver is placed. That means every curve, pattern, and joint is thoughtfully planned and aligned with your overall landscape vision. With in-house design and build capabilities, we guarantee results that hold up—both structurally and stylistically.
What are Driveways & Walkways in Landscape Construction?
Driveways and walkways are the most traveled parts of your landscape—and some of the most overlooked. But when properly designed, they elevate the look and feel of your property while supporting long-term function and flow. From selecting the right base materials for drainage and durability to choosing pavers, natural stone, or exposed aggregate finishes, the process is a balance of art and engineering.
At Strong Roots Landscaping, we treat driveways and walkways as integral elements of your outdoor environment. They should guide movement, create welcome, and reflect the personality of your home—all while withstanding years of weather and use.
Our Approach to Crafting Driveways and Walkways in Barrie, Orillia & Muskoka
We’ve built driveways and walkways across the region—from sloped cottage lots in Muskoka to frost-prone driveways in Barrie and narrow walkways in Orillia. With every project, we account for the real-world conditions that affect long-term durability—grading, soil movement, drainage, and seasonal shifts. It’s not just about laying stone; it’s about building surfaces that hold up where we live.
We offer full-service hardscape installation for driveways and walkways, including:
- Interlock Paver Driveways
- Natural Flagstone Walkways
- Permeable Paver Systems
- Edge Restraints & Border Accents

Absolutely amazing to work with…
From rendering to execution, Zach was there every step of the way. Rain or shine they worked hard to deliver an amazing end result before schedule. Zach was flexible and adaptable every step of the project, from grading issues to stone shortage, Zach offered amazing alternatives and delivered. Our oasis is more than we could have asked for. We are looking forward to having Zach and his team back for phase 2 of our project later this fall or early spring. Most importantly, the strong roots crew where very much loved by my Labradors.

You were recommended to us…
From the moment we first contacted Zach for our walkway project, to the completed installation, we were impressed with his professionalism and attention to detail. Zach's suggestions regarding the walkway made it easy for us to finalize a design. Zach and his crew's did a fabulous job. Their attention to detail was amazing. There was not one day on the job where they did not leave without cleaning up the work site. We felt at total ease knowing we made the right choice to hire Strong Roots Landscaping. Looking forward to having them return for more work!
