Pavers

Pavers are only as good as the base.

The pavers are what you see, but the base is what keeps them flat for years.

We build driveways, walkways, patios, pool decks, courtyards and entryways in pavers.

We also set fire pit surrounds, borders and garden edging that tie a yard together.

You can choose concrete pavers, clay brick or natural stone, in a range of shapes, patterns and colors.

Under all of them goes the same work: we excavate, lay base rock and compact it in layers.

Then we screed the bedding layer, set the pavers to a plan and cut the edges clean.

Edge restraint holds the field in place, and joint sand locks the pavers together.

We grade every surface so water runs off the pavers and away from your house.

Call (919) 625-3963 and we will walk the area, talk through patterns, and write up a free estimate.

What we build

Paver Driveways done right.

  1. Paver driveways

    Driveways in concrete or clay brick pavers, on a base built for the weight of vehicles.

  2. Walkways and entryways

    Front walks and entry landings that give your door a proper approach.

  3. Patios and courtyards

    Patios and courtyards in the pattern and color that suit the house.

  4. Pool decks

    Pool decks laid to shed water away from the pool, with a surface that stays even underfoot.

  5. Fire pit surrounds

    Paver rings and pads for fire pits and outdoor kitchens, set level and edged tight.

  6. Borders and garden edging

    Paver borders that hold a bed, a lawn line or a driveway edge in place.

Around the Triangle

Pavers that handle Raleigh clay.

Red clay holds water, and water is what lifts a paver patio out of level.

So we dig deep enough for a proper base and shape the grade to carry rain away from the house.

Hard summer storms test a driveway fast, and a well-compacted base keeps a surface from settling.

Pine roots and mature oaks are common here, and we plan around them.

Older brick homes inside the Beltline suit clay brick or tumbled pavers that sit well beside the old brick.

Newer subdivisions in Cary, Apex and Wake Forest often want a back patio or a wider drive.

Some have HOA rules, and we work to them.

Questions

Paver Driveways questions.

Something else on your mind? Call (919) 625-3963 and ask.

Concrete pavers, clay brick or natural stone?

All three work. Concrete pavers offer the widest range of shapes and colors.

Clay brick has a classic look that suits older homes.

Will my pavers sink or shift over time?

A well-built base is what keeps pavers from settling.

We compact the base rock in layers and edge the field so it cannot spread.

Do you build driveways as well as patios?

Yes. We build driveways, walkways, patios and pool decks.

A driveway gets a heavier base than a patio, because of the weight it carries.

Can I choose the pattern and color?

Yes. We go over shapes, patterns and colors at the estimate.
