Screened Paver Base

Screened paver base is a foundational construction aggregate specifically processed to remove oversized particles and debris, resulting in a uniform, easily workable material. This screening process ensures consistent particle size, which is essential for creating a stable, level base beneath pavers, bricks, or flagstones.

The screened attribute means fewer fines and a more predictable compaction, reducing the risk of uneven settling over time. This makes it ideal for both residential and commercial hardscape projects such as patios, walkways, driveways, and retaining wall bases. The improved consistency also speeds up installation and helps achieve a professional finish. While screened paver base offers excellent drainage and stability, it may require careful compaction to prevent shifting. Overall, it's a reliable choice for anyone seeking a durable, long-lasting foundation for their paving projects.
