Products we use:
Interlocking Pavers
Interlocking concrete pavements are a flexible pavement system. Flexible means that weight is distributed through the Class 2 Base layer below the surface of the brick -- in essence the base is the support layer not the brick, allowing the surface to move with the weight, thus, causing more flexibility within the product. This offers many benefits, including easier repair processes, longer pavement life, and reduced maintenance costs; which all lead to extending the replacement cycle of the paver product. In the long run, it also conserves the use of raw materials; making for a more sustainable product for our environment. Interlocking concrete pavers have a minimum average strength of 8,000 psi. Interlocking concrete pavers make for a very durable system.
The Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute (ICPI) offers education materials on Interlocking Concrete Pavement systems. Our team is ICPI Certified; we have installed over 100,000 square feet of pavers over the last five years. Contact us today to inquire about more education materials we have available.
Block for Retaining Walls
Looking to add an Allan Block wall to your property? The first part is to determine if you need a Gravity Wall or Reinforced Wall. Gravity walls rely on their own weight and setback to hold up the soil behind them. Reinforced walls use layers of geogrid to combine the soil and block together to form a reinforced soil mass. Allow our certified Allan Block team to install the perfect wall for you.
Artificial Turf
Artificial turf is a surface of synthetic fibers made to look like natural grass. It is most often used in arenas for sports that were originally played on grass. However, it is now being used on residential lawns and commercial applications as well. The main reason is maintenance—artificial turf stands up to heavy use and requires no irrigation or trimming.
Perfect for a kids outdoor play area or an outside area for the pets. The little to no maitenance makes this product a most love for all users!
Permeable Pavers
As cities continue to see growth, we see growth in other areas as well. Pavements, buildings and other impervious surfaces generate additional runoff and pollutants causing stream bank erosion, degenerating lakes and polluting sources of drinking water. In response to environmental and economic impacts the storm water runoff is causing, U.S. federal law requires that each state control water pollutants in runoff through the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). Through this law, one of the requirements is that states and localities execute best management practices (BMPs), controlling the pollution from further development.
Permeable Interlocking Concrete Pavements (PICPs) are highly effective in providing infiltration, detention, and treatment of storm water pollution.

Flagstone
Flagstone includes layers of sedimentary stone and is known to be an easy product to work with due to the flat, thin nature of the material. Flagstone can be used in a variety of different ways to showcase your landscape install; fire pits, seating areas and walls, patios, paths, and walkways are all examples of how the materials can be used. Flagstone pavers are available in several different colors, shapes, and thicknesses. Keep in mind that all Flagstone is a natural stone; the colors showcase the characteristic features of their original region. No two stones will be exactly the same. The color palettes for flagstone range from red, pink, orange, brown, blue, gold and even white. The stone ranges in thickness as well. It is recommended for the stone to be at least 1” thick in areas that will endure heavy traffic or weight.
Lighting
Lighting can be instrumental in showcasing property, safety, and making sure spaces are sufficiently lit to local code. We offer a variety of exterior lighting for both functional and aesthetic uses. Allow our Design Experts to recommend the best lighting to showcase your install.
