Artistic Pavers for Pool Decks, Patios & Driveways
Pavers let you design your hardscape like a work of art: patterns, borders, inlays, and color blends that make your backyard and driveway one of a kind.
Pavers are individual units, usually concrete, set on a compacted base with sand-filled joints. That design makes them flexible: they move with the ground instead of cracking like a solid slab, and any single paver can be lifted and replaced. It also opens up design possibilities: herringbone, basketweave, running bond, circles, fans, contrasting borders, and custom inlays.
Why pavers make sense in Arizona
Flexible. Individual pavers ride out soil movement that cracks solid slabs.
Easy to repair. Stained or broken pavers can be pulled and replaced without a patch that shows.
Endless design. Patterns, colors, borders, and inlays to match your home and pool.
Ready to use. No curing time like poured concrete.

How paver installation works
Design
Choose paver style, color, pattern, and borders.
Excavate & base
Old surfaces removed and a compacted base built for drainage.
Lay the pattern
Pavers are set in your pattern and cut to fit edges and curves.
Lock & seal
Joints are sanded and compacted; sealing is optional.
The base is what lasts
A paver surface is only as good as what’s underneath. We excavate, compact the base in layers, grade for drainage, and install edge restraints so pavers stay tight and level for years.
Around the pool, we set coping and slope the deck away from the water. Compare with travertine and porcelain pavers.
Pavers are a great fit if
Concrete and artistic pavers typically run $10–$20 per square foot installed, depending on the product, pattern, and base prep.

- You want a custom pattern or border
