Pavers

Paver driveways, patios, pool decks, repair, sealing, and removal cost ranges.

• Paver Driveway Cost — $16–$32 per square foot
  Paver-driveway pricing depends heavily on excavation, disposal, compacted aggregate base, bedding, edge restraint, paver type, pattern, cutting, and site access. Vehicle-rated construction and Southern California labor make driveways more expensive than basic pedestrian patios, while permeable systems and difficult drainage conditions can exceed the range.
• Paver Material Cost — $3–$12 per square foot
  This topic is material-only despite the requested installed-pricing research because its title and current values specifically describe paver material cost. Product type, color and texture, thickness, manufacturer, freight, pallet quantities, waste, and sales tax determine delivered material cost; excavation, base, bedding, edging, and installation are separate.
• Paver Patio Cost — $16–$38 per square foot
  Installed paver-patio cost depends mainly on excavation, base preparation, paver selection, layout complexity, and job size. Southern California labor and hauling costs, difficult backyard access, demolition, drainage work, and premium finishes can move a project well above a basic open-area installation.
• Paver Removal Cost — $3–$8 per square foot
  Paver removal involves lifting or breaking out existing units, gathering bedding material as required, loading debris, and clearing the work area. Southern California costs depend on access, paver type, installation method, disposal logistics, and the size of the removal area.
• Paver Repair Cost — $600–$4,000 per project
  Paver repair may include removing affected units, correcting the bedding or base, replacing damaged pavers, and resetting the surface to restore alignment and drainage. Southern California project cost varies with the damaged area, cause of failure, material availability, access, and the amount of base reconstruction required.
• Paver Sealing Cost — $1.5–$4.5 per square foot
  Paver sealing generally includes surface preparation and application of a compatible sealer to the paved area. Southern California costs vary with cleaning needs, surface porosity, joint condition, sealer type, access, and the number of coats required.
• Permeable Paver Cost — $20–$40 per square foot
  Permeable-paver installations require a deeper, open-graded stone reservoir and carefully separated aggregate layers rather than a conventional dense base. Excavation and soil export, infiltration conditions, paver selection, edge restraint, drainage design, access, and project size are the major Southern California cost drivers.
• Pool Deck Paver Cost — $22–$45 per square foot
  Pool-deck pavers usually cost more than a simple patio because crews must make extensive cuts around coping, drains, curves, equipment pads, and penetrations. Slip-resistant or cool-surface products, drainage correction, demolition, restricted access, and coordination with pool components are major Southern California cost drivers.
