The short answer
Paver pricing varies from yard to yard. Two driveways on the same street can come out very differently: different material, different square footage, different tear-out, different base work. That's why we price every project in person instead of from a chart.
The six factors below are what move the price up or down. When you want your exact number, we come out, measure, and put your quote in writing, free, usually within one business day.
The six things that set your price
- 1 The material you choose
- Concrete pavers are the budget-friendly workhorse. Brick is the classic look. Travertine runs cooler underfoot. Porcelain is the premium look. We install all of them, including brands like Belgard and Pavestone, in any color or pattern.
- 2 The size of the area
- Pavers are priced by the square foot, but small jobs carry the same setup costs, so the per-foot rate usually drops as the area grows.
- 3 What’s there now
- Tearing out an old slab or driveway first adds demolition and haul-away. Bare dirt skips that cost.
- 4 The base underneath
- The part you can’t see decides how long the job lasts: excavation, base rock, and compaction. We build this layer for Arizona soil and heat on every job.
- 5 Access and slope
- A flat, open front yard is simple. A backyard through a narrow side gate, or a slope that needs grading, takes more labor.
- 6 Pattern and borders
- A simple pattern lays faster than a herringbone with a contrasting border. Details look sharp and take more time.
How the materials compare
| Material | Price tier | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Concrete pavers | Most budget-friendly | Driveways and budget-smart patios. The Valley workhorse. |
| Brick pavers | Budget to mid tier | The classic look for patios, walkways, and borders. |
| Travertine | Mid to upper tier | Pool decks. Stays cooler under bare feet in July. |
| Porcelain | Premium | The premium, modern look for patios and pool surrounds. |
The tiers hold for almost every project; the exact numbers depend on your yard. The only price that counts is a written quote. Ours is free.

Where the money actually goes
Roughly half of a quality paver job is what you never see: excavation, base rock compacted in lifts, a screeded sand bed, and edge restraint holding it all together. That layer is what keeps a driveway flat through Arizona summers, and it's included in every quote we write.

Common questions
- Why do quotes from different paver companies vary so much?
- Every company builds the base differently, and the base is most of the job. Our quotes include excavation, compacted base rock, and edge restraint. Call (602) 872-8352 and we’ll walk you through what goes under your pavers.
- Are pavers more expensive than poured concrete?
- Usually upfront, yes. Over the years pavers are easier to live with: a damaged paver can be lifted and replaced, while concrete has to be patched or re-poured.
