Paver Patio FAQs for Allen
What base depth do you use for paver patios on Collin County clay soil?
We excavate to 6–8 inches and install a compacted crushed aggregate base before setting pavers. In clay soil like Collin County's, the base is everything — insufficient depth causes settling and unlevel surfaces within the first wet season. Proper compaction at each lift is equally important and something we never skip.
What paver styles are available in Allen?
We install concrete pavers, natural stone, travertine, and brick in a range of patterns — herringbone, running bond, basketweave, and random layouts. Color and texture options are extensive. We bring samples to the consultation so you can review them in your outdoor space and see how they look against your home's exterior.
Can you combine a paver patio with drainage improvements in Allen?
Yes — we frequently combine patio work with French drains or catch basins to address the standing water that Collin County clay soil creates after heavy rain. Solving drainage at the same time as hardscape installation protects both investments and costs less than addressing them as separate projects at different times.
Client Experience
“Our backyard had three problems: no privacy, terrible drainage after every rain, and an ugly cracked concrete pad. i30 Builders fixed all three in one project. Cedar privacy fence along the back and sides, French drain running to the street, and a paver patio over where the old concrete was. They phased it correctly — drainage and grading first, fence second, pavers last. The yard doesn't flood anymore and we actually use the patio now. I've used a lot of contractors over the years and these guys are in the top tier: show up when they say, communicate what's happening, and actually clean up after themselves.”
