Patios & Walkways in Scottsdale and Phoenix
Outdoor Living Spaces Designed for Comfort, Connection, and Everyday Living
Your outdoor space should feel like an extension of home. A place where the kids play after dinner, friends gather around the kitchen, and you can unwind without stepping far from your back door. Our patios and walkways are designed with those moments in mind. Each one is shaped around your lifestyle and built to stand up to the Arizona sun.
Comfortable Spaces for Relaxing and Hosting
Patios That Bring People Together
Great patios become the place where life happens. When we design a patio, we start with how you want to use it. Maybe you picture slow mornings under a pergola or evenings spent around a fire feature. Maybe you want room for a dining table or a quiet corner to read. We listen first, then build a space that feels natural to you.
Our patios often include:
Paver surfaces that stay reliable through heat and heavy use
Layouts that make outdoor kitchens, pergolas and lighting feel purposeful
Spaces sized and shaped for real living, not just checking a box
The goal is simple. You step outside and feel at ease. Your patio supports your routines and your gatherings without needing constant attention.
Paths That Feel Natural and Invite People In
Walkways That Create Flow and Connection
Walkways guide people through your yard and give the space a gentle rhythm. Some lead guests from the driveway to your front door. Others connect the patio to a side yard or pool. Each one is designed with care to feel natural and completely at home in your landscape.
Design options include:
Paver walkways that pair well with patios and entry areas
Curves or straight paths that feel intuitive
Placement that protects plants and keeps foot traffic where it belongs
A good walkway is one you never need to think about. It simply works and makes the whole yard feel more intentional.
Designed for the Desert Climate
Arizona’s climate presents real challenges. Patios and walkways need to handle intense sun, dry conditions and sudden weather shifts. We plan for all of it. Materials are chosen for heat resistance and long-term strength. Patterns and layouts are built to avoid shifting.
We also help soften the space with shade structures, lighting and thoughtful transitions. The goal is to create a yard that feels welcoming in every season.
Our Process: Simple. Thoughtful. Proven.
Step One
We Start with a Conversation
We walk your property, talk through how you want to use your space and listen to what truly matters to you.
Step Two
We Create Your Design
You receive a custom layout with options for materials, patterns, lighting and how everything ties together. You see how the patio and walkways will support your lifestyle.
Step THREE
We Build with Care
Our crew handles the details. Every cut, curve and connection is installed with precision so the finished space feels complete and ready to enjoy.

Rising Tide did an absolutely amazing job with our yard from the start.
Jaden came out to quote our job and was very respectful and excited to help us make our dream yard come to life. Jaden worked with me around all of my ideas and was very thorough in offering options, concepts, materials and listened when I had some wild ideas, and was honest with his answers when I had questions. Jaden even was able to whip together a great drawing to help us visualize the details of the yard which was very helpful.
The team were quick to get us scheduled and get the job started once we were ready to go. The team working on the yard were very hard working and kind, willing to listen to our questions and help. All in all, we are very happy we went with Eric and his team at Rising Tide and will be happy to recommend them to all of our friends and family”
