Paver Driveway Installation

What This Service Involves

Paver driveways set individual units over a compacted aggregate base, creating a surface that flexes with our region's settling and freeze-thaw without cracking like a slab. The joints let rainwater drain, which helps with stormwater management on Puget Sound lots. A wide selection of colors and patterns makes the driveway a design feature, and damaged pavers can be swapped out individually. We build a deep, well-compacted base so the driveway carries vehicle loads for the long haul. Any required permits and grading are handled to code.

Benefits

Interlocking units flex without cracking; Permeable joints aid drainage and stormwater compliance; Individual pavers can be replaced if damaged; Wide range of colors and patterns to choose from; Strong load capacity for daily vehicle use

Our Process

1) Excavate and grade the driveway to the proper depth; 2) Build and compact a crushed-rock base; 3) Screed a bedding layer and lay the pavers in the chosen pattern; 4) Cut edges, install restraints, and lock the joints with sand

What Affects the Cost

Driveway size and paver type selected; Depth of base required for the soil; Pattern complexity and amount of edge cutting; Drainage and grading work involved; Site access and excavation disposal

Best Time of Year

Dry summer weather is ideal for base compaction and jointing, though installation stays feasible through early fall.
