Quality Driveway Paver Installation
Many homeowners are diverging from concrete and asphalt and choosing to have their driveway paved. With so many different types and styles, the paved driveway can significantly enhance your home’s beauty and give it a personal touch. Your driveway should look welcoming to you and your guests and give your home a warm sense of security. It should also instill a sense of peace in the business of life.

Custom Designed Driveway Pavers
Driveway Paver Styles
Choose from a waterproof or permeable paver. An impervious paver driveway would be your traditional driveway. A permeable paver driveway prevents water from accumulating on the surface. A heating system could be installed beneath paves to keep snow from accumulating.
Laying Pattern Options
The sturdiest and most common choice is a herringbone pattern set at a 45-degree angle to the garage. An ashlar pattern can be effective for heavier traffic and provides a more contemporary look.
Thickness and Base
Traditional pavers have been constructed using 80mm with a standard 6″ base. A lighter 60mm paver with a thicker base is becoming more common. In rainy climates, the base depth can be up to 12 inches.
Color and Border Options
The homeowner is expected to choose a color that matches the home's roof. Another option is to contrast paver shape, texture, and color.
Embellishments
Focal points can be added with pattern embellishments for unique touches to your driveway. Contemporary focal points can be created using circles, squares, or rectangles.

Walkway Pavers Installation
Walkway pavers help you safely navigate your landscape and add a touch of beauty and elegance. By directing traffic, you are also protecting your landscape’s precious artifacts, such as flower beds, shrubs, and trees. The walkway can be designed to complement the colors and patterns in its surroundings, creating a unique style that enhances your home and, if done properly, greatly increases its curb value.
Custom Designed Paver Options
Paver Material
Brick (clay), concrete, bluestone pavers, flagstone, marble, travertine, porcelain, cobblestone, rubber, and plastic.
Type of Paper
Impervious (traditional), permeable, or slip-resistant is available. Impervious pavers are your traditional ones; permeable ones prevent water accumulation, and slip-resistant ones prevent people from slipping on the walkway while traveling.
Thickness and Base
Traditional driveways have been constructed using pavers with a standard 4″-6” base.
Paver Installation
Natural stone and concrete pavers must be installed properly to last a long time without cracking. The ground must also be adequately prepared with extensive grading or backfilling. This requires a team of professionals with years of experience laying foundations and choosing materials. The folks at Green Day are just the team for you!
Pedestal Paver System
A pedestal paver system consists of structurally strong pavers laid over a pedestal support, which raises the tiles to create perfectly horizontal elevated decks. This system is generally used if the existing surface is uneven or sloping. A common application is converting a building rooftop into an outdoor living and entertainment space. Some other applications include pool decks, patios, balconies, courtyards, walkways, and pool surroundings.
