Ready to get started?
Our paver installation services cover every application your Atherton property needs. From grand entrance driveways that make the right first impression to intimate patio spaces perfect for entertaining, we handle projects of any scale with the same attention to detail.
Atherton’s unique climate and soil conditions require specific installation techniques that many contractors overlook. We use proper base materials, precise grading, and professional-grade edge restraints that prevent shifting and settling. Our installations are built to handle everything from heavy vehicle traffic to seasonal weather changes.
Every paver installation includes comprehensive site preparation, premium materials from trusted suppliers like Belgard, and our signature project management approach. You’ll receive daily progress updates, direct access to your project manager, and the peace of mind that comes from working with Silicon Valley’s most experienced paver installation team.
Most paver installation projects in Atherton take 3-7 days depending on the scope and complexity. A typical patio installation usually requires 3-4 days, while larger driveway projects may take up to a week.
The timeline includes site preparation, base installation, paver laying, and final finishing work. Weather can occasionally extend timelines, but we provide guaranteed start and completion dates for every project. Our project managers keep you informed with daily updates throughout the installation process.
Concrete pavers and natural stone perform exceptionally well in Atherton’s Mediterranean climate. Concrete pavers offer the most design flexibility with 25-50 year lifespans, while natural stone like travertine can last 100+ years with proper maintenance.
Porcelain pavers are increasingly popular for their durability and low maintenance requirements. They resist staining, require minimal cleaning, and maintain their appearance through decades of use. We help you select materials that match your aesthetic preferences while delivering the performance your property demands.
For Atherton properties, we often recommend permeable pavers for areas with drainage considerations, as they allow water infiltration while preventing runoff issues.
Paver installation costs in Atherton typically range from $15-35 per square foot, depending on materials, design complexity, and site conditions. A standard 300 square foot patio generally costs $4,500-10,500 installed.
Premium materials like natural stone or intricate patterns increase costs, while simpler concrete paver designs offer excellent value. Site accessibility, excavation requirements, and existing landscape removal also affect pricing. We provide detailed estimates that break down every cost component.
The investment pays dividends through increased property value, reduced maintenance compared to concrete, and decades of reliable performance. Most Atherton homeowners find quality paver installation adds significantly more value than the initial investment.
Yes, we provide comprehensive warranty coverage including a 30-year workmanship warranty and lifetime material warranties. This coverage protects your investment and demonstrates our confidence in the quality of our installation methods.
Our warranties cover structural issues, settling, and installation defects. We also provide guidance on proper maintenance to ensure your pavers perform optimally throughout their lifespan. Most maintenance involves occasional cleaning and joint sand replenishment every few years.
We stand behind every installation with the kind of warranty coverage you’d expect from Silicon Valley’s most established paver contractor. Your warranty documentation includes specific coverage details and maintenance recommendations.
In many cases, we can install pavers over existing concrete if the surface is structurally sound and properly prepared. This approach can reduce costs and installation time while delivering the aesthetic and performance benefits of quality pavers.
The existing concrete must be evaluated for cracks, settling, and drainage issues. We may need to make repairs or adjustments to ensure a stable foundation. Proper edge restraints and base preparation are critical for long-term performance over concrete substrates.
However, complete removal and proper base installation often provide superior long-term results, especially for high-traffic areas like driveways. We evaluate each situation individually and recommend the approach that best serves your specific needs and budget.
Properly installed pavers require minimal maintenance compared to other hardscape options. Regular sweeping and occasional pressure washing keep them looking their best. Joint sand may need replenishment every 2-3 years depending on traffic and weather exposure.
Sealing pavers every 3-5 years helps maintain color vibrancy and provides additional stain protection, though it’s not always necessary. Individual pavers can be easily replaced if damaged without affecting the surrounding installation—a major advantage over concrete surfaces.
We provide detailed maintenance guidance with every installation, including recommended cleaning products and techniques. Most Atherton homeowners find paver maintenance straightforward and much easier than maintaining concrete or asphalt surfaces.
