Driveway pavers in Sunrise Manor NV - a surface that holds up under your cars

Installed paver work in Las Vegas usually runs about $9 to $23 per square foot. Where yours lands depends on how much digging and base your ground needs, the paver you pick and the pattern. I'll give you your own number in a written estimate after I see the driveway.

Herringbone does, because the zigzag sets each paver against its neighbors so they lock together and spread the load where tires turn and brake. Industry guidance recommends it wherever cars drive constantly, and it's the layout we lean toward for driveways.

Keep the joints full, and top them up with dry masonry sand right away once the sand has dropped more than half an inch, as the paver maintenance guide advises. Wind, heavy runoff and too much cleaning can wash it out, and the guide doesn't recommend polymeric sand for topping up.

Clark County requires a building permit for on-site grading of any kind, and that permit covers private property only. Work in the street right of way or drainage needs a separate off-site permit with bonds posted. We help you figure out whether the county or your city covers your address and handle the application with you before work starts.

A properly installed paver driveway needs little upkeep and stays good-looking for decades, though traffic still brings dirt, stains and some wear. That life depends on the install, so ask each contractor how deep they plan the base and whether they hold the state's license class for driveway paving.
