How we build paver jobs in Riverlea

Paver work in Riverlea faces the same conditions as the rest of Central Ohio: clay that holds water, a long freeze-thaw season and spring rains that soak the ground. We install and repair pavers with all three in mind, starting from the subgrade.

Freeze-thaw cycles that crack poured slabs barely register on a paver field with a drained base, since the joints let each unit shift and settle back. Polymeric sand needs a dry forecast to set, so in a wet Columbus spring the joint sand sometimes waits a day or two after the pavers are laid.

Send us a few details about your Riverlea paver project, or phone us, and we will find a time to walk the site with you and work up a free estimate.

Around Riverlea

Homes around Riverlea Ravine and Rush Run Parkland in Riverlea sit on the same slow-draining clay found across Central Ohio, so the base we build there is compacted in thin lifts and graded to move water off the pavers.

A plate compactor works Central Ohio clay best when the soil is damp but not wet, since dry clay is hard to dig and wet clay pumps up into the base.

Outside Riverlea, we take on patios, walks, driveways and paver repairs in Worthington, Minerva Park, Upper Arlington and Huber Ridge as well, built the same way from the subgrade up.

Questions

Riverlea questions

Can you relevel sunken pavers in Riverlea?

Yes. We lift the pavers in the low area, rebuild and compact the base, screed fresh sand and relay the same pavers. The joints then get new polymeric sand.

Do I need a permit for paver work in Riverlea?

It depends on the project and the local rules. Patios and walks on your own lot are often simple, while driveway aprons at the street and taller retaining walls more often need a permit or a design, and we check what applies before work starts.

Do you install pavers in Riverlea year-round?

Most of the year, yes. Frozen ground cannot be dug or compacted, and soaked clay has to dry out before it will take a base, so a cold snap or a wet week can push back the start date.

How deep do you dig for pavers in Riverlea?

It depends on what the pavers will carry. A walk needs the least base, a patio more and a driveway the most, and soft or wet clay adds to any of them, so the depth is set after looking at the soil.

How do I get a paver estimate in Riverlea?

Call (614) 810-4672 or fill out the form with the size and type of paver job. We will call back, arrange a visit to see the site and give you a free estimate.

Do you use geotextile fabric under the base?

When the subgrade calls for it. Firm, dry soil may not need it, but over soft or wet Central Ohio clay a woven fabric keeps the base stone from punching down into the mud and the mud from pumping up into the stone.
