Is your property struggling with standing water, drainage issues, or excessive stormwater runoff? Are you concerned about the environmental impact of traditional concrete driveways while dealing with heavy rainfall and challenging soil conditions? Maxwell Landscape Construction specializes in permeable paver installations that solve these challenges while creating beautiful, functional outdoor spaces that protect both your property and the local watershed.
For over 40 years, our team has helped homeowners combat water management issues with innovative permeable paving solutions. We understand that effective hardscaping requires more than just attractive design – it demands intelligent engineering that works with nature, not against it.
Permeable pavers are an innovative hardscaping solution designed to allow water to pass through the surface and infiltrate into the ground below, rather than creating harmful runoff. Unlike traditional concrete or asphalt surfaces that shed water and contribute to flooding, permeable pavers feature wider joints filled with permeable aggregates and are installed over specially designed base layers that facilitate natural water infiltration.
These interlocking paver systems combine the durability and aesthetic appeal of traditional hardscaping with advanced stormwater management capabilities. By mimicking nature’s own drainage processes, permeable pavers help recharge groundwater, reduce flooding risks, filter pollutants, and create more sustainable outdoor living spaces. Available in various styles, colors, and patterns, they offer both environmental responsibility and design flexibility for driveways, patios, walkways, and parking areas.
Heavy clay soil and intense rainfall create unique drainage challenges that traditional paving only worsens. When rain hits impermeable surfaces, it rushes off carrying pollutants into storm drains, contributing to local flooding and water pollution. Our permeable paver systems address these external problems by:
Beyond the visible water issues, poor drainage creates stress and worry for homeowners. You shouldn't have to anxiously watch weather forecasts, wondering if the next storm will flood your garage or wash out your landscaping. Our permeable paver solutions provide peace of mind by:

Permeable pavers are specially designed paving stones that allow rainwater to filter through joints into the ground below. Unlike traditional paving, they reduce stormwater runoff, help with drainage, and recharge groundwater. Maxwell Landscape Construction installs permeable pavers that are both functional and beautiful.
Traditional pavers and poured concrete trap water on the surface, often leading to pooling or runoff. Permeable pavers are engineered to let water flow through, reducing flooding and erosion while complying with many stormwater regulations.
They reduce runoff, prevent pollutants from entering storm drains, and support natural water cycles. Many municipalities encourage or require permeable paving for eco-conscious construction.
Benefits include improved drainage, erosion control, reduced flooding, eco-friendliness, and a long lifespan. They also add curb appeal to driveways, patios, and walkways.
Permeable pavers are perfect for driveways, patios, walkways, parking areas, and commercial applications where drainage control is essential.
Yes — they are specifically designed to address drainage challenges by allowing water to pass through instead of pooling or running off.
Permeable pavers may cost slightly more upfront due to their engineering, but they save money by reducing drainage infrastructure needs and long-term water damage repairs.
Yes — many municipalities offer incentives for eco-friendly solutions like permeable paving. Our team can help identify available programs in your area.
They improve functionality, meet environmental standards, and add modern curb appeal that increases property value.
