Built from the ground up.
A lot of paver jobs are done the fast way. Tear out the grass, throw down some sand, lay the pavers on top. It looks great for a season. Then the dips show up, the pavers start shifting, and the edges spread into the yard.
That's not a paver problem. That's an installation problem.
Pavers don't fail on top. They fail underneath. When they're installed correctly, a paver patio lasts for decades. At Houston Precision Construction, every paver project is a multi-step build, and most of the work happens below the surface where you'll never see it. That's where the value is, and it's the part we refuse to cut corners on.
Geotextile fabric is installed where soil conditions call for it. Select the graphic to enlarge.
Our clay soil moves. It swells when it's wet and shrinks when it's dry. If the ground underneath isn't prepped right, that movement shows up in your patio as dips, gaps and loose pavers. That's why we evaluate the existing soil on every job and build the base to match it. A properly compacted stone base, with geotextile fabric added where soil conditions call for it, is what keeps your patio flat and tight year after year.

Richard and his guys did a great job laying out our pavers

They have done several jobs here at our ranch in Hempstead. They provide quality work, looking to re-contract them again for future jobs. Highly recommend them!

Travertine or concrete pavers? Travertine is natural stone with variation in color and texture. Concrete pavers offer manufactured shapes, finishes and patterns. We'll compare the options for your setting, design and maintenance preferences.
The pavers we install carry a manufacturer's lifetime limited warranty, and that warranty depends on the pavers being installed to industry guidelines. That's exactly how we build them.
Smaller paver projects start around $5,000. A generous patio with room for a table, chairs and a comfortable seating area typically runs around $15,000. Final price depends on size, pattern, site prep and access, and we'll give you a clear price range at your design consultation.
Every HPC paver project follows the same multi-step process. We evaluate the existing soil, excavate to the right depth, grade for drainage, and compact the native soil. Where soil conditions call for it, we add geotextile fabric. Then we build a crushed stone base compacted in layers, screed a 1" sand bed, set the pavers, lock in the edge restraint, plate-compact the surface, and sweep in polymeric sand to lock the joints. Most of the work happens below the surface, and that's what makes a patio last.
Almost always because of what's underneath. When pavers are laid on loose soil and sand without a properly compacted base, Houston's clay soil moves and the patio moves with it. A compacted stone base built for the existing soil, with edge restraint set on the base, keeps pavers in place for decades.
For most patios, walkways and pool decks, pavers. They're made from stronger concrete, the joints let them flex with our soil instead of cracking, and they can be lifted and reset if you ever need repairs or access to utilities underneath. A cracked concrete slab has to be cut out and patched, and the patch never matches.
A properly installed paver patio lasts for decades. The base underneath determines how long it holds up, which is why we put so much into it.
Smaller projects start around $5,000, and a generous seating area with room for a table and chairs typically runs around $15,000. Size, pattern, site prep and access all affect the final price.
