Paver Installation in Arcadia
engineered to last, not just installed
Most paver problems in Arizona are base problems. We install pavers on a properly compacted ABC base — 2–3" for patios and walkways, 4–6" for driveways, more for build-up and high-traffic — set in a 1" sand bed and locked with polymeric joint sand. Quarter minus is never used under pavers.
What's different about pavers in Arcadia
Flood irrigation changes everything about base prep, drainage, and turf selection. We engineer paver assemblies to survive saturation cycles, design landscape around the existing canopy instead of clearing it, and never specify materials that fail wet.
Scope of work
- Patios, walkways, pool decks, driveways, and full hardscape redesigns
- Belgard, Pavestone, Acker-Stone, and Oldcastle product lines
- Travertine, porcelain, and natural stone paver assemblies
- Proper drainage, edge restraint, and finish elevation
- Polymeric joint sand on every project — never plain mason sand
The non-negotiables
- 2–3" ABC base for patios and walkways; 4–6" for driveways (more for build-up)
- 1" sand bedding course on every install
- Polymeric joint sand always — never plain mason sand or no joint sand
- Quarter-minus is NEVER used under pavers (turf base only)
Pavers in Arcadia — FAQ
Why do so many pavers in Arizona fail?+
Almost always inadequate base depth or no polymeric joint sand. The pavers themselves rarely fail; the assembly under them does. We engineer the assembly to the load — patio depth for a patio, driveway depth for a driveway.
What's your paver warranty?+
2-year workmanship warranty on paver installation. Manufacturer warranty on the pavers themselves (varies by brand).
How long does a paver patio take?+
Most patios run 1–2 weeks once on schedule, depending on size and scope. Driveways and full backyard hardscape can run 3–4 weeks.
