Driveways
Your driveway is more than just a place to park — it’s the first impression visitors have of your home. A professionally installed paver driveway enhances curb appeal, increases property value, and provides a durable, functional surface for years to come.
Overview
A quality driveway installation can boost your home’s resale value by 5–10% — but only if it’s built right. Heritage driveways start with deep excavation and a heavy compacted base engineered for vehicle loads, then finish with premium pavers laid in patterns that elevate the whole property. For sloped driveways or elevation changes, we integrate retaining walls to create level parking areas, prevent erosion, and add structural support.

We are so happy we had Diego and Heritage Hardscapes create a beautiful 3 level retaining wall and widen our driveway.

Common Questions
Like patios, paver driveways typically range from $15–$30 per square foot depending on size, materials, and site conditions. Driveways need a heavier base than patios, which we include in every itemized estimate up front.
Most residential driveways complete in one to two weeks, including demolition of the old surface, base construction, and paver installation. Weather and scope can extend larger projects.
Yes — this is one of our most common projects. We correct grade, engineer drainage, and where needed integrate retaining walls to create level, stable parking areas that stop erosion at the source.
Pavers outlast both (25–50 years), resist freeze-thaw cracking, and are individually replaceable — a repair means lifting a few stones, not saw-cutting a slab. They also deliver the curb appeal that asphalt can’t match.
