Driveways & Walkways

Paver and stone driveways, walkways, and garden paths that set the tone before guests ever reach your door.

What We Build

The First Thing Anyone Sees

Driveways and walkways take more daily wear than almost anything else on a property. We build a proper base and drainage plan underneath, so the surface — paver, flagstone, or stamped concrete — stays flat and solid for years.

Paver Driveways

Interlocking paver driveways built on a compacted, engineered base for long-term stability.

Flagstone Walkways

Natural flagstone paths set with tight, clean joints for a finished look.

Stamped Concrete

Textured, stamped concrete surfaces for driveways and patios at a lower cost than paver or stone.

Garden Paths

Smaller-scale stone and paver paths that connect your yard's outdoor spaces.

How It Works

A Straightforward Process

01

Consultation & Design

We walk your property, talk through what you want, and put together a design that fits your space and budget.

02

Materials & Planning

You choose stone, brick, or finish options, and we schedule the build around permitting and site prep.

03

Build & Walkthrough

Our crew builds it to spec, and we walk the finished project with you before calling it done.

Materials We Work With

Driveways

Your driveway is the first thing visitors see when they pull up. We build it to handle daily traffic and still look sharp for decades — stamped concrete or pavers, sized and sloped right for proper drainage.

Walkways

A well-built walkway ties your driveway to your front door, or your patio to your side yard. We match material and pattern to the rest of your property so it feels intentional, not tacked on.

Our Build Process

Designing a paver driveway layout

1. Design

The layout is entirely up to you, and we're happy to work with you to figure out the shape and pattern that fits your property best.

Preparing the base for a paver driveway

2. Prepare

We remove and dispose of your existing driveway, then excavate and compact the base your new pavers will actually be set on.

Building a paver driveway

3. Build

Our crews set each paver by hand, with the joint sand and edge restraint that keep the whole surface locked together for years.

4. Live

We confirm the finished surface meets our standard, answer any questions you have, and hand over a driveway built to last.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose Coronado Exteriors?

We build every paver driveway around Houston's specific soil and drainage conditions, not a generic spec — and we walk the finished project with you before we call it done.

Are pavers stronger than concrete?

Pavers flex slightly as a unit instead of cracking under stress the way a single concrete slab can, which is why they tend to hold up better over Houston's shifting clay soil.

How does Coronado install a paver system?

Full excavation, a compacted aggregate base, bedding sand, then each paver set by hand with joint sand and edge restraint to lock the pattern in place.

Do pavers stain easily on a driveway?

A sealed paver surface resists oil and tire marks far better than bare concrete, and if a single paver does stain badly, it can be pulled and replaced without redoing the whole driveway.

Do you install decorative concrete surfaces?

Yes — stamped and decorative concrete are both options if you want the look of stone or brick without the cost of true pavers. We'll walk you through the trade-offs for your project.

Is cracking an issue with pavers?

Individual pavers essentially don't crack the way concrete does. The real risk is settling if the base underneath wasn't compacted properly, which is why we treat base prep as the most important step in the job.

What are your standard specifications for a paver installation?

Specs vary by soil and intended use, but every driveway gets a compacted aggregate base sized to Houston's clay soil, proper bedding sand depth, and edge restraint on every open edge.

Do you install Belgard pavers?

Yes, Belgard is one of several manufactured paver lines we work with, alongside natural stone and other paver brands, so we can match the material to your budget and style.

Can pavers be installed over an existing driveway?

Generally no — we remove the old driveway first so we can build a proper compacted base underneath. Setting pavers directly over old, uneven concrete just carries that unevenness into the new surface.

What maintenance is required?

Sweep and rinse as needed, refresh the joint sand every few years, and reseal on a regular schedule to keep water and stains from working into the joints.
