What goes into a new paver driveway?

A paver driveway in Ontario, CA is a dug-out, compacted base with edges along the sides, a sand bed and interlocking concrete pavers on top, which gives you a driveway that carries your car without the cracks of an old slab.

Maybe your concrete driveway is cracked across the middle, stained from years of oil, or just looks tired next to a house you've put work into. The price mostly turns on the driveway's size, whether an old driveway has to be broken out and hauled away, which pavers you pick and whether a concrete slab goes under them for heavy loads. The schedule turns on that same tear-out, any city sign off for work at the street and our crew's calendar, and you'll see your own figure in my written estimate, along with what I'd do and why.

Why Ontario picks us for driveway pavers

You get the owner on your driveway, a straight answer about what really needs doing, and a crew that works like your family still lives there, because it does.

  • I see every job myself

    I come out to look at your driveway in person, and I'm on site with our crew while the work gets done.

  • Careful work since 2023

    I started this business in 2023 so I could do masonry carefully instead of fast, and that's still how we work.

  • Straight talk on what stays

    If your steps or curb are sound, I'll say so, because tearing out good work just costs you money.

  • A tidy site, family at home

    Years of working around tenants taught me to keep the site neat and your path to the front door clear.

  • Licensed and insured

    We're licensed and insured, and I'm happy to show you both at the estimate before you sign anything.

Driveway paver options we build

A paver driveway is only as good as the ground work under it, so we put our effort into the base before a single paver goes down, then match the rest to how you use it.

  • Interlocking pavers on a sand bed

    This is the driveway most homes need. We dig out, compact the soil and a layer of base rock, set edges along the sides so nothing creeps, then lay pavers made to carry a car's weight on a sand bed.

  • Pavers over a concrete slab

    One cost guide suggests this for driveways that carry heavy loads, with the pavers set in sand or mortar on a slab poured over a compacted base. It adds a concrete pour to the job, so it's worth it when you need the extra strength, like a heavy work truck parked there every night.

  • Replacing an old driveway

    If cracked concrete or asphalt is out there now, we break it out and haul it away before any base work starts. That tear-out shows up as its own line on the estimate, so you can see what it adds.

  • Walls and brick around the drive

    A driveway often runs beside a slope, a planter or old brick steps. Our retaining wall construction holds back ground that drops off beside the drive, and masonry restoration brings back brick or block that's worth keeping instead of tearing it out.

What happens when you call about a paver driveway?

Every driveway starts with me seeing it in person, because the old slab, the slope and the street out front all change the plan, and we set the work around your household.

  1. You get in touch

    Call (909) 738-1042 or send the form with your driveway's rough size, and we get back to you to set up a visit.

  2. I walk the driveway

    I come out myself, take photos and show you what I'm seeing, from the old concrete to where your drive meets the street.

  3. Your written estimate

    I write up what we'd do and why, what comes out and what can stay as it is, so you're not guessing.

  4. The work and walk-through

    Once you say go, we set a schedule together, our crew does the work with me on site, and we walk the finished driveway with you.

Paver driveway questions we hear

How much does a paver driveway cost in Ontario, CA?

One cost guide puts a sand-based concrete paver driveway in San Bernardino at about $16 to $19 per square foot, which is a useful yardstick close to home. That figure includes the compacted base and the sand bed under the pavers but not tearing out an old driveway, so a replacement costs more. Your own number comes in my written estimate after I walk the job, and our work is backed by our satisfaction guarantee.

Which pavers are best for a driveway that cars drive on?

Interlocking concrete pavers are the right pick, because thinner, larger paving slabs can flex and crack under a car's weight. One paving trade group's guidance also groups driveways with walkways and calls for thicker pavers on streets, so ask any contractor what thickness they're quoting you.

How do I keep a paver driveway from sinking?

Get the soil under the base compacted properly, because national paving guidance calls compaction critical to how interlocking pavers perform and says it keeps settling to a minimum. When you compare bids, ask each crew exactly how they'll compact the soil, and listen for a real answer instead of a shrug.

How long does a new paver driveway take before I can drive on it?

Open-jointed pavers are ready to use as soon as they're installed, because there's nothing to cure. If a concrete slab goes under your pavers for heavy loads, that concrete needs time to cure first, and I'll walk you through the wait when we plan the schedule.

What should I do before digging up my old driveway?

Have your underground lines marked first, because a paving trade group advises checking with the utility companies so digging doesn't damage pipes or wires. Many places have one phone number you call at least two days ahead for marking, and I'll go over it with you before our crew digs.

What license should a driveway paver contractor have in California?

Look for a contractor licensed for paving, because California's earthwork and paving contractor classification is the one that covers placing paving and other surfacing materials. It's fair to ask every crew bidding your driveway which license they hold before you sign.

Driveway pavers in Ontario and the street out front

When a new driveway reaches the street, the City of Ontario's Engineering Department gets a say, because it issues encroachment permits and its form requires one even for owners working along their own property's frontage. The drive approach, sidewalk, curb and gutter are all on that form, and the application carries the contractor's state license number and a current business license on file with the city. When a job needs city sign off, we take care of the permit and set up the inspections, and for work that stays on your lot I ask the city before we start rather than guess.

Most of the driveways I look at around Ontario are older poured concrete, cracked or lifted where cars turn in, so the old slab usually comes out before any base work. We're based in Ontario and see the same driveways on jobs in Upland and Rancho Cucamonga, plus plenty of other cities nearby.
