Interlocking paver driveways and aprons with heavy-duty bases that carry vehicles and look like part of the home.
Pavers make a driveway feel like a courtyard. The pattern, color and borders add richness to the front of the house, and individual units can be lifted and reset when a utility needs repair. A paver driveway has to be built with a deeper, stronger base than a patio, and the details of the edge and the apron decide how well it lasts.
Your designer helps you choose pavers rated for vehicles, patterns and borders. The crew excavates deeper than for a patio, builds a thick compacted base in lifts, sets edge restraint, screeds the bedding layer and lays the pavers, then compacts and fills the joints. The apron where the driveway meets the street is built to handle turning loads, and drainage is built in. Maintenance is simple. A broom, a hose and a fresh dose of joint sand every few years keep the surface tight, and individual pavers can be lifted and reset when a utility needs access, which is a real advantage over a poured slab.
Thicker pavers and herringbone patterns resist turning and braking forces better than thin units.
A thick compacted base spreads the weight of vehicles, which keeps the surface flat.
Concrete or heavy edge restraint stops the drive from spreading, especially at the apron.
Polymeric sand locks pavers, and a simple care routine keeps the surface tight.
