Paver Installation in Alamo
Driveways in Round Hill and Stone Valley Oaks are often long and wide. A paver driveway with a contrasting border breaks up the large surface, and because each paver can be lifted and reset, repairs don't mean redoing the whole driveway.
Near mature oaks, we keep edges out of the main root zone where we can. If roots move the surface years later, pavers can be reset instead of cutting and patching a slab.
Alamo is unincorporated, so rules come from Contra Costa County. Private driveways and patios close to grade are on the county's permit-exempt list. A new or changed curb cut at the street goes through county Public Works.
Interlocking paver driveways, patios, walkways and pool decks built on a compacted base with edge restraints, so the surface stays flat and individual pavers can be replaced if they are ever damaged.
| Pavers | Poured concrete | |
|---|---|---|
| Repairs | Replace individual pavers | Patch or replace a full section |
| Ground movement | Joints let the surface flex | Control joints guide cracking |
| Look | Many shapes, colors and patterns | Broom, stamped or exposed aggregate |
| Use after install | Walkable right after compaction | Needs curing time before use |
We measure, check slopes and drainage, and mark the paver pattern and color with you.
We remove the old surface and soil, then install and compact a crushed-rock base in lifts.
Pavers are set on a screeded sand bed in the chosen pattern and cut cleanly at the edges.
Edges are locked in place and joints are filled with polymeric sand to limit weeds and shifting.
We compact, clean the surface and review the finished work with you.
Driveways not more than 30 inches above grade are on Contra Costa County's building-permit exemption list. Work on a public sidewalk or curb cut needs county Public Works review.
Often, yes. Pavers can be lifted and reset if roots move, and we lay out edges to avoid cutting large roots.
