Ardian was awesome to deal with. He did exactly what was promised and like he promised it. He knew exactly what will and won't work. His crew was in and out in two days.
Paver Patios & Driveways Patios, driveways, walkways, and pool decks built on a deep compacted base with polymeric joints
A paver patio shifts if the base is shallow, drifts if the edge restraint is wrong, and grows weeds if the joints are loose. We do all three the right way the first time.
Paver Patios & Driveways — what's included
Patios, driveways, walkways, and pool decks built on a deep compacted base with polymeric joints.
- Herringbone, basketweave, and running-bond patterns
- Permeable paver driveways for stormwater compliance
- Soldier-course borders and cut radius edges
- Polymeric jointing and edge restraint
Paver Patios & Driveways — start to finish
The four stages we run on every paver patios & driveways job. Same workflow whether it's a small fix or a full install.
Layout and excavation
String lines on the design. Excavation to 8–12 inches below finish grade — deeper for driveways. Geotextile fabric on the subgrade if soils are soft or wet.
Compacted base
3/4-inch clean stone placed in 2-inch lifts, each lift compacted with a plate compactor before the next goes in. This is where 80% of the long-term performance lives.
Bedding and laying
1 inch of bedding sand screeded to grade. Pavers laid in the chosen pattern (herringbone for driveways — it locks under load). Soldier-course border tied to the field.
Edge, joints, and compact
Snap-edge restraint spiked into the base. Polymeric joint sand swept in, blown clean, then misted to activate. Final pass with the compactor over a roller mat sets the field flush.

What homeowners say about our paver patios & driveways work.
Verified reviews from our HomeAdvisor profile.
Absolutely great work and left the work space clean! Will definitely use again and refer to my friends.
They are very easy to work with and they do exceptional work!
Yes, job is done right.
Had 6 estimates. Some came prepared. Some never even measured or quoted a price. Ardian was very open about pricing, durability of pavers and showed his previous work. One thing I value in any vendor is communication. Ardian kept us well informed in every step of the job. Would recommend and will utilize his services in the future. Not to mention that the job he and his crew did was excellent. Pleasure to do business with.
Ardian and his team came and installed my Cambridge paving stones quickly upon agreeing to work together. His team was friendly and very respectful of our property as they tore up the concrete slab pathway and installed our new pavers. We are very happy with the craftsmanship and professionalism Ardian and his team showed. I highly recommend his work!
About paver patios & driveways work
The four things people actually want to know before they sign an estimate.
How long does a paver installation take?
A typical 400 sq ft patio is 5–7 working days. A driveway runs 1–2 weeks depending on size and how much we have to dig out. Weather and base condition are the big variables — soft subgrades take longer to compact correctly.
Polymeric sand vs. regular sand for joints?
Polymeric. It locks the joints, stays put through rain and snowblowing, and stops weeds from rooting. Regular sand washes out within a season. Polymeric needs to be installed dry on a dry surface, then misted — installer error here is the most common reason a paver job fails early.
Will pavers heave in the winter?
Not if the base is right. The base has to drain freely so water doesn't sit and freeze under the field. Bedding sand depth needs to be uniform (1 inch — not more). Joints need polymeric sand keeping moisture out of the base.
Can pavers go over an existing concrete slab?
Sometimes — it depends on the slab's condition, drainage, and finish elevation. We have to add 1.5–2 inches of stack height, so steps and door thresholds become a problem. We'll tell you honestly whether it's worth it for your slab or whether you're better off tearing out and starting on a proper base.
