"Williams Paving was everything you’d want in pavers. Bill the owner came out at a convenient time for me, measured the driveway himself, and sent me a quote. We arranged a time for the paving and he kept an eye on the weather. Bill worked along side his crew and they were a hardworking and efficient group. It was really nice to see the way in which these folks worked together. They were very thorough. Everything was cleaned up afterwards and left in beautiful condition. I cannot praise them enough! They did a fantastic job and were very respectful of me and my property. Hire Williams Paving; they are fantastic!!"

"Dave and his crew did an excellent job stripping my old landscape beds of stumps, roots, and several tons of old river rocks. They are a team of professionals who arrived promptly in the morning and worked hard all day, taking care not to damage my porch or walkway with their machinery. Afterwards, they did a thorough job cleaning up and even washed the dirt off my driveway. I would definitely use their services again!"

Paving Services questions, answered by experts

Pavers are a type of permeable hardscape that can be used for driveways, patios, walkways, and other landscaping features. Unlike poured concrete or asphalt, pavers typically have a layer of gravel underneath to prevent water runoff from damaging your property—though you can also lay pavers on grass. Because pavers are installed piece by piece, you can customize a one-of-a-kind hardscape that best suits your aesthetics, boosting your curb appeal along the way.

Paving is a part of hardscaping, so all paving is hardscaping, but not all hardscaping is paving. Paving involves laying down concrete or asphalt, while hardscaping can also include the use of paving stones, bricks, gravel, wood, and more. Hardscape features that involve paving are considered permanent and will increase your property taxes, while some other hardscaping features—like those involving bricks, gravel, and paving stones—will not affect property taxes. Paving also typically requires a permit, while hardscaping features considered temporary will not.

The layer of polymeric sand under the pavers plus the polymeric sand that gets swept into the joints between your pavers holds them in place in a few ways. For one, the gritty texture of the sand helps lock the pavers together. Polymeric sand also contains bonding agents that get activated by water. Polymeric sand will take between 24 and 48 hours to fully cure, so do not walk on your paver walkway before this time.

Your driveway contractor will probably recommend that you avoid driving on your new millings driveway for up to a week. Keeping pressure off the freshy applied millings will help the driveway to bind together. While the sun is helpful for binding millings, hotter weather can actually make the curing process take longer.

The most common causes of sunken pavers are poor base preparation and insufficient compaction. The problem could also be how your pavers were installed. If the soil beneath your patio or walkway wasn't compacted, it will pull pavers down as it settles. Additionally, using bare soil instead of making a paver bed with compacted gravel and sand can cause sinking over time. To fix sunken pavers, consider recompacting the base and addressing any drainage or erosion issues in the area.
