Herringbone Paver Driveways & Patterns
Herringbone paver driveways lock together under car traffic. We also lay running bond, basketweave and multi-size patterns.
Herringbone paver driveways: How We Do It
Herringbone paver driveways projects start with a free walk-through and a written, itemized estimate. Then we build a base for Southwest Florida soil and summer rain. In addition, we install pavers from leading manufacturers such as Tremron and Belgard.
Herringbone Paver Driveways
The pattern you choose affects both the look and how the driveway handles traffic. Herringbone, laid at 45 or 90 degrees, interlocks in every direction and resists the shifting that turning tires cause. That is why it is the go-to pattern for driveways.
Running bond, basketweave and random multi-size patterns can also work, especially with the right paver thickness and base. We show you options with samples and photos before you decide.
Every project starts with a free on-site walk-through and a written, itemized estimate. That way, you see the layout, pavers and price before work begins.
To see how herringbone compares with running bond and basketweave under tire traffic, read which paver pattern works best on a driveway.
What Goes Into It
45° herringbone
The strongest interlock for driveways, with a classic look.
90° herringbone
Strong interlock with a slightly more modern, linear feel.
Running bond
Clean lines; best laid across the direction of travel.
Multi-size patterns
Natural-stone look using several paver sizes.
Common Questions
Which pattern is strongest for a driveway?
Herringbone, because every paver is locked by its neighbors in two directions.
Can I use a patio pattern on a driveway?
Some patterns work with the right paver and base; we will tell you honestly at the walk-through.
Does pattern change the price?
Patterns with more cuts take more time. We price it in your written estimate.
