Custom paver installation designed for Massachusetts winters and built to stay beautiful for decades.
Your backyard becomes the place everyone wants to gather. Weekend barbecues, morning coffee, evening conversations – all happening on a patio that looks as good in year ten as it did on day one.
No more dealing with cracked concrete or uneven stones that shift every spring. No more water pooling after storms or ice patches that make you nervous about walking outside.
Just a beautiful, functional outdoor space that adds real value to your home and gives you a reason to spend more time outside. The kind of improvement that makes you wonder why you waited so long to do it.
Academy Masonry has been installing pavers in Chelmsford and surrounding towns for years. We understand what works here and what doesn’t.
Massachusetts winters are tough on outdoor surfaces. That’s why we use frost-resistant materials and proper base preparation techniques that prevent the settling and cracking you see with cheaper installations.
You’ll find our work throughout Chelmsford neighborhoods. We’re the contractors your neighbors call when they want pavers done right the first time.
We start with proper excavation and base preparation – the foundation that determines whether your pavers will last two years or twenty. Most problems with paver installations trace back to shortcuts taken during this crucial first step.
Next comes the sand leveling layer and edge restraints that keep everything locked in place. We use commercial-grade materials and techniques that prevent shifting, even during freeze-thaw cycles.
Finally, we install your chosen pavers with precise spacing and proper drainage slopes. We finish with polymeric sand that hardens to prevent weed growth and paver movement. The result is a surface that looks professional and performs reliably for decades.
Ready to get started?
Every paver installation includes proper excavation, compacted stone base, sand leveling, edge restraints, and polymeric sand finishing. We handle permits when required and ensure all work meets local building codes.
You’ll get a detailed written estimate that breaks down materials and labor costs. No surprise charges or change orders unless you request additional work. We source pavers from reputable suppliers and can show you samples at your property to ensure color and style match your vision.
Most Chelmsford paver projects take 3-5 days depending on size and complexity. We protect your landscaping during installation and clean up thoroughly when finished. Your new pavers are ready to use immediately after completion.
