Paving Stone Driveway Installation
Paving Stone Driveway Installation
Why install a paving stone driveway instead of pouring a concrete slab? The benefit of using paving stones in your driveway is far more than adding curb appeal to your home. Concrete is prone to cracking, and developing unsightly lines that get worse with every freeze and thaw cycle, as the material has no outlet for the expansion and contraction that happens with seasonal change. Paving stones are know as “flexible pavement” since they are able to move with freezing and thawing, thereby avoiding cracks. Additionally paving stones are manufactured with less water content than “poured in place concrete”, so the stones are more durable and last longer.
Aside from practicality however, the most exciting qualityof paving stones really is the many design possibilities; the opportunity to create a more visually pleasing and unique paved surface with the variety of shapes, sizes and colours available.
We at Nicholson Landscaping recommend using paving stones on driveways in an interlocking pattern since this is proven to be the most durable for vehicular traffic. Our skilled, certified installers can quickly lay your driveway in under a week and get your vehicle off the street and back in the garage!
We stand by the quality of our work with a written guarantee.

Belcarra
This client has a beautiful "smart" home on the water in Belcarra. He had us install natural stones using boulders, dry stack basalt stackers and natural stone stairs. Getting all this heavy and awkward materials up the hill and into this back yard was a challenge. We were successful and everyone is pleased with the natural looking results.
Hemlock
All natural stone project using boulders and flagstone. This client also had us back 2 years later to add a similar style to his front yard too. Thanks Ben!
Patullo
This wonderful couple trusted us again for the second time in as many years. Last year we did a small retaining wall and low maintenance garden area in the front yard, so this year was our chance to complete this full yard renovation.
