The Best Paver Patio Installations In Burlington

The Square Leaf Landscaping Approach to Paver Installation

At Square Leaf Landscaping, we understand that the foundation of a stunning, durable paver patio lies in the meticulous preparation of the site and the paver base. Poor groundwork can lead to disappointing outcomes, something we ensure never happens with our installations.  We strictly follow the guidelines provided by some the manufacturer of the products we are using like Unilock and Permacon.  We guarantee that your new paver landscape not only looks amazing, but stands the test of time and qualifies for the full manufacturer’s warranty.

Ground Preparation: The Square Leaf Process

Building the perfect paver patios, driveways, and walkways in Burlington requires precision, patience, and sticking to a series of critical steps that distinguish our work from the rest.

Step 1: Layout and Design The first thing we do is accurately measure and outline the area designated for your new paver patio. Using stakes and string lines, we outline the space's perimeter while using spray paint or flags to mark any unique design features such as curves or corners.

Step 2: Clearing the Site We then proceed to clear the area of any existing vegetation, roots, rock, or debris, ensuring a clean base to start from. Following this, we excavate to a depth that accommodates your specific paver choice along with the underlying base materials, which can vary based on the paver type and project requirements.

Step 3: Depth Precision The excavation depth is critical, tailored to the paver thickness and the desired level with adjacent surfaces. This includes room for the base material and any leveling agents, such as sand, to ensure a seamless finish.

Step 4: Base Material Application We lay down a foundation of crushed gravel followed by a layer of sand in the excavated area. The gravel layer establishes a firm base with adequate drainage, while the sand layer offers a smooth, adjustable surface for paver placement. Each layer is meticulously compacted to prevent future settling, using either hand tampers or mechanical tampers, as per our project's scope.

Step 5: Setting the Edges Installing edging is important to keep the pavers aligned and maintain the design's integrity. Depending on the specifications we might utilize metal or plastic edging secured along the paver area's perimeter, fixed in place with appropriate stakes or fasteners.

Step 6: Laying the Pavers Starting from a predefined corner, we methodically lay the pavers, adhering to your chosen pattern. A rubber mallet assists in accurately positioning each paver, while a level ensures all pieces align perfectly. Adjustments to the sand base are made as necessary to achieve a flawlessly level surface.

By dedicating ourselves to thorough site preparation, Square Leaf Landscaping promises a paver patio installation that not only meets but exceeds expectations, ensuring a beautiful and long-lasting addition to your outdoor space. Trust us to bring the expertise, precision, and care your project deserves.
