Our process. A complete job from start to finish!

1. Removal and Excavation: Our first step is to remove and haul away existing surface (old concrete, asphalt, dirt, etc.) We also remove an additional 2"-12" soil to give a stronger foundation to support the pavers.

2. Geo-textile: To provide stability and strength "optional" include a geo-textile fiber mesh. This fiber mesh also acts as a barrier to keep out unwanted weeds and unwanted plants.

3. Base Material: We meet and exceed all Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute Standards and the crushed aggregate base is compacted for proper drainage and strength. Don't be short changed! This is what sets us apart from our competition and ensures lifelong enjoyment from your pavers. walkways 4 inches (base aggregate material) residential driveways 6-8 inches (base aggregate material) commercial applications vary depending on specifications (base aggregate material)

5. Pavers: Our highly experienced crew will ensure proper placement of concrete or clay pavers. All paving stones are placed by hand for a proper fit. Then a vibrating plate is passed over the stones to lock them in place.

6. Border Stone: All our borders are set in concrete to ensure a proper border and foundation for your new pavers. This will protect your paving stones from shifting.

7. Sand Joints: This is where we lock in your pavers permanently. Our highly experienced crew will use a vibrating plate to push sand into the joints and lock the pavers in to place. Additionally, we use joint/sand sealer to keep the locking sand from washing away.

8. Clean Up: We leave every job completely clean and take this part of the process very seriously.

Traditional Charlotte NC brick patios should be built over a 4-inch concrete slab. The bricks are now set in a mortar bed and leveled one at a time. Then all the spaces between the bricks are filled with a grout. This is can be rather expensive because one is building two surfaces. Interlocking brick patios are far more economical because they are set in sand instead of in mortar over concrete.

Charlotte NC Flagstone patios is a generic term for thin flat rock that is used for paving flat surfaces. Flagstone is named from the location of the quarry it comes from. Arizona red is a reddish sand stone; Pennsylvania blue is a grey blue. The cost of the stone is proportional to the shipping distance.

Concrete Pavers — Stronger than Stamped Concrete

Charlotte Concrete pavers are stronger than ordinary or stamped concrete which gives you the assurance that the pavement for your driveway, patio, or pool deck will look beautiful for a very long time. Pavers are easy to clean and require little maintenance.

Cobblestones

Charlotte Cobblestones have wide joints which encourage weeds and have a surface that makes walking difficult. Concrete pavers won't crack like asphalt or poured-in-place concrete. This is because each unit has joints that allow for a small amount of movement without cracking. Additionally, cobblestone can be 3-4 times more expensive than concrete pavers.
