Backyard Patio Pavers
“American Pavers & Turf completely transformed our outdated concrete backyard into a breathtaking private resort. The 3D design session was eye-opening — seeing the exact stone layout and lighting before excavation gave us total confidence. Six months later, the interlocking pavers and custom BBQ island still look brand new. Their craftsmanship is second to none.”

FAQ's
Driveway Pavers Frequently Asked Questions
Get honest, contractor-direct answers about driveway permits, slopes, weight capacities, and pricing across Southern California.
Can you use pavers on sloped or steep driveways?
Yes, absolutely. Interlocking pavers are ideal for sloped driveways because their textured surface provides superior vehicular traction compared to slick poured concrete. During engineering, our crews take laser slope measurements, install reinforced concrete footer restraints at the base, and use geotextile soil pins to completely eliminate downslope creep.
Can you install pavers over an existing concrete driveway?
The short answer is no. Overlaying pavers directly on top of old concrete traps moisture underneath, raises garage lip elevations improperly, and mirrors existing concrete cracks directly up into the paver joints. We demolish and haul away the old concrete, excavate to proper subgrade depth, and build our 5-layer 98% Proctor compacted aggregate foundation.
What kinds of vehicles can our paver driveway support?
Professionally installed driveway pavers from American Pavers & Turf withstand over 10,000 PSI—more than four times the compressive strength of standard concrete. Our deep aggregate foundation is engineered to effortlessly support everyday passenger vehicles, heavy commercial delivery trucks, boats, and full-size Class-A RVs with zero rutting.
How long does an interlocking paver driveway last?
Our paver installations are engineered to last 50+ years. Because individual pavers flex naturally with California seismic micro-movements and expansive clay expansion, they never fracture or crack like rigid concrete. Every driveway project is backed by our 25-Year transferable master craftsmanship warranty.
How much do driveway pavers cost in California?
Driveway paver costs vary based on total square footage, excavation depth, existing demolition, and the specific stone collection selected (such as Euro Cobble, Large-Format Planks, or Herringbone). During our complimentary in-home consultation, a senior hardscape architect measures your site, brings physical stone samples, and provides a guaranteed, transparent 3D design estimate with 0% APR financing options.
How long does it take to install a paver driveway?
Most standard residential 2-car to 4-car driveways (800 to 2,000 sq. ft.) are fully completed in 4 to 6 working days. This includes concrete demolition, excavation, base compaction, paver laying, edge beam pouring, and polymeric sand locking.
What routine maintenance is required for driveway pavers?
Interlocking pavers require minimal maintenance. Occasional sweeping and periodic garden hose washing keep them looking pristine. Our polymeric sand joint lock prevents weeds and ant tunnels. We recommend an optional commercial-grade clear seal refresh every 3 to 5 years to enhance color luster and resist tire marks.
Can I customize the pattern, border soldier course, and colors?
Yes, 100% custom. Choose from 45°/90° herringbone, tumbled cobbles, or modern mega-slabs, accented with contrasting charcoal border courses, custom driveway apron banding, and integrated low-voltage lighting pavers.
