Paver Driveway Installation

We Install Beautiful Paver Driveways

Paver Driveway Installation in East Tennessee

A paver driveway does more than improve curb appeal. When it is built correctly, it adds long-term durability, clean drainage, and a finished look that sets your home apart. At Property Docktors, we design and install paver driveways that are engineered for vehicle weight and tailored to East Tennessee conditions.

We serve homeowners throughout Lenoir City, Loudon County, Knox County, and surrounding communities, helping replace failing driveways and build new ones that look right and hold up over time.

Why We Use Unilock Copthorne® Pavers for Driveways

For most driveway projects, we recommend Unilock Copthorne pavers. They are inspired by traditional European street pavers and have a classic, timeworn look that works well with both older homes and newer construction.

Copthorne pavers use smaller, delicate dimensions that allow for gentle curves, accent bands, and clean borders without excessive cutting. They are manufactured to deliver up to four times the strength of conventional poured concrete, which makes them a proven option for driveways that see daily vehicle traffic.

Because of their durability and flexibility, Copthorne pavers also transition well into walkways, entry paths, and other front yard features, creating a cohesive look across your property.

Paver Driveways We've Installed

Driveway-Specific Preparation That Holds Up

A driveway requires a very different build process than a patio or walkway. Vehicle weight, turning forces, and braking all place stress on the surface and base.

Our driveway installations include:

    • Deeper excavation than standard hardscaping
    • A thicker, properly compacted stone base designed for vehicle loads
    • Careful grading and drainage planning for Tennessee soil conditions
    • Edge restraints and jointing methods that prevent shifting over time

This level of preparation is critical for preventing settling, ruts, and premature failure, especially in areas with clay soils or sloped lots.

Replacing Old Concrete or Gravel Driveways

We regularly remove and replace cracked concrete driveways and convert gravel driveways into clean, low-maintenance paver systems. Before installing new pavers, we correct underlying issues such as poor base material, drainage problems, or uneven subgrades.

The result is a driveway that looks better, drains more effectively, and does not crack like poured concrete or scatter like gravel.

Walkways, Driveway Extensions, and Parking Areas

A paver driveway does not have to stop at the garage. We can:

  • Build matching or contrasting paver walkways to your front door
  • Add side-yard or wraparound walkways using the same paver system
  • Create driveway extensions for additional parking
  • Design defined paver parking areas for guests, trailers, or recreational vehicles

These additions improve both function and curb appeal while keeping a consistent design across the front of your home.

Permeable Paver Driveway Options

In certain situations, permeable pavers can be a smart option for driveway installations. Unlike standard pavers, permeable systems are designed with wider joints and a specially engineered stone base that allows rainwater to pass through the surface instead of running off toward the street or foundation.

    • Helps manage stormwater in areas with drainage challenges or mild slopes
    • Reduces surface runoff and pooling near garages, walkways, and foundations
    • Works well where downspouts or driveway runoff currently cause erosion
    • Can be useful on properties with limited stormwater discharge options
    • Requires specific soil conditions and proper base depth to function correctly

Permeable paver driveways are not right for every property. Soil type, slope, and subsurface drainage all need to be evaluated first. When conditions allow, we design and install these systems from the ground up to handle vehicle weight while managing water effectively over the long term.

We moved into a home in August. The bushes and weeds were growing on top of each other! Sam and his crew got everything looking neat in 1 morning. He helped me decide what bushes to keep and what to remove. He gave me some great advice on helping my grass go back too. After Sam and his crew left, I didnt just love my house, I loved my yard right along with it.
