Paver Driveways and Walkways

Interlocking paver driveways and walks with deep bases, strong edges and patterns that add real curb appeal.

Pavers turn the places you drive and walk into a feature. Instead of a plain slab, you get texture, pattern and color that can match the house. Paver surfaces are also repairable: if a section settles or a utility line needs work, individual pavers can be lifted and reset. In Nashville, where clay soil moves and tree roots lift paving, a flexible paver system often performs better than a rigid slab.

The key to a long-lasting paver driveway is the base. We excavate deeply, install geotextile fabric where soil is soft, add layers of compacted stone and set pavers in a leveled bedding layer. Edge restraints lock the perimeter so the pavers do not spread. We cut borders neatly, compact the surface and fill the joints with polymeric sand. For walkways, we follow the same method on a lighter scale, with attention to steps, slopes and drainage. We also check where water will go before we begin, since a paver surface should shed runoff toward the street or a drain and never toward the garage or the house. Edges, aprons and transitions to older concrete get special attention, because these are the places where drives most often show wear. We explain sealing choices and expected upkeep before work begins.

Deep, compacted base

Driveways need a thicker base than patios to carry vehicle loads.

Strong edges

Restraints lock the pavers in place so the pattern stays tight.

Patterns and colors

Herringbone, running bond and borders let you tailor the look.

Repairable surface

Individual pavers can be lifted and reset if needed.
