Our Design & Installation Process
Looking to add brick paved driveway to your backyard? Here's what the process looks like!
- Preparation and Marking
Our team starts by marking out your driveway area to ensure precise dimensions and a gentle slope for effective drainage. This careful planning helps us achieve the ideal layout for your space.
- Excavation
We excavate the designated area, typically to a depth of 8–12 inches, depending on soil and usage. This foundation depth is tailored to ensure stability and durability for years to come.
- Laying the Base
Next, we install a base layer of compacted gravel, followed by a layer of coarse sand. Each layer is compacted to create a solid, stable foundation, minimizing future shifting.
- Edge Restraint Installation
We place edge restraints around the driveway’s perimeter. This crucial step keeps the pavers secure and prevents any spreading or shifting, even with heavy usage.
- Setting the Pavers
We lay each paver carefully, following your chosen pattern. Throughout this process, our team checks for levelness and alignment, adjusting as needed for a seamless look.
- Joint Sand and Compacting
Finally, we sweep polymeric sand into the paver joints and compact the surface to lock everything in place. This final step solidifies the structure, ensuring your driveway remains secure and beautiful.
