Tremron Driveway & Pavers: The San Antonio Owner’s Guide
We stock and install Tremron-compatible driveway pavers and replacement units across San Antonio, with most paver driveway installations running $7,000 to $18,000 depending on square footage, base prep, and paver style. If you’re dealing with a cracked, sunken, or shifting Tremron paver, we can usually match the color and profile within 24 hours and have a written price in your hands before any work starts. The way most San Antonio homeowners find a failed paver is subtle at first: a slight wobble underfoot, a hairline crack that catches dirt, or water pooling in a spot that used to drain. Then the San Antonio clay soil does what it does, and that one loose paver becomes a trip hazard and a drainage problem. We’ve been fixing exactly this since 2005, and Luca Romano still walks the final inspection on every paver job we close.
Key Takeaways:
- Paver driveway installation in San Antonio runs $7,000 to $18,000 installed.
- We stock Tremron-compatible replacement pavers and can match most active product lines.
- Sawyer Remodel San Antonio is an independent installer and parts provider, not affiliated with Tremron.
- Every job gets a written price before work begins, under The Relay Visibility Guarantee.
Which Tremron Models This Applies To
Tremron’s catalog covers a lot of ground: Holland stone, Olde Towne pavers, City Square, Regency Stone, and larger format slabs like Mega Olde Towne and Mega Stone. Most San Antonio driveways we see use their 60mm or 80mm pavers, with 80mm being the spec we recommend for anything a vehicle will drive on. 60mm pavers are rated for patios and walkways; put a truck on them and you’ll see cracked corners within a few years. That’s the most common compatibility gotcha we run into: a homeowner bought 60mm pavers thinking they’d save money, and now we’re replacing the section that takes wheel traffic.
If you have a failed paver but don’t know the exact Tremron line, look at the underside. Tremron stamps most pavers with a mold code, and the profile dimensions narrow it down fast: 4×8 inches for Olde Towne, 8×8 for Holland, and the larger formats run 12×12 or bigger. For OEM versus aftermarket, Tremron’s color blends are proprietary, so an aftermarket paver from a different manufacturer will usually look close but not exact, especially after a year of San Antonio sun. We always try to match OEM first. When a line is discontinued, we’ll show you a physical sample next to your existing pavers before ordering anything.

Signs Your Tremron Driveway & Pavers Are Failing
- Rocking or wobbling pavers underfoot. The base layer under the pavers has settled or washed out, usually at the edges or near downspouts. In San Antonio’s clay soil, we see this more after heavy rain cycles where the ground swells and contracts.
- Hairline cracks spreading across multiple pavers. This points to a base failure, not a paver defect. Individual pavers can crack from impact, but cracks running in a line suggest the base wasn’t compacted in lifts or a vehicle loaded beyond what the base was built for.
- Sand loss between joints with weeds taking root. Joint sand washes out over time, especially on sloped driveways. Left alone, the pavers lose lateral support and start shifting. We see this worst on Alamo Heights hillsides where runoff moves fast.
- Low spots that hold water after rain. San Antonio gets intense downpours, and a dip that holds water for hours after a storm means the base has settled unevenly. Standing water accelerates paver deterioration and brings mosquitoes.
- Chipped edges or spalled paver faces. This is wear. After 10 to 15 years of Texas sun and traffic, the top layer of the paver can start to flake. Individual pavers can be swapped, but if half the driveway shows it, the surface is telling you the whole top layer is at end of life.

AfterReplacement Cost & What’s Included
In San Antonio, a full Tremron paver driveway installation runs $7,000 to $18,000. A smaller repair, like pulling and resetting a sunken section or swapping 20 to 40 cracked pavers, typically falls well under that range, often $1,500 to $4,000 depending on how much base rebuild is needed. Here’s what drives the spread:
- Square footage: a two-car driveway is usually 600 to 900 square feet; more driveway, more material.
- Base condition: if we’re pulling up pavers and the base underneath is powder, we’re rebuilding it, not just dropping pavers back on top. That’s where a cheap quote becomes an expensive redo.
- Paver style and thickness: 80mm pavers cost more per square foot than 60mm, and larger-format stones install faster but cost more per unit.
- Access and slope: Alamo Heights and Terrell Hills driveways with steep grades or tight turnarounds take longer and cost more.
Every quote is a written line-item price: materials, base work, labor, and haul-away separated so you see exactly what you’re paying for. The number on the invoice is the number you approved. And the 365-Day Done Right Promise applies to every paver job: if it’s not done right, we make it right, in writing, for a full year.
DIY or Call Us?
A single cracked paver on flat ground is a job a motivated homeowner can absolutely do: pry it out with a flat bar, scrape the sand level, drop a new paver in, sweep sand into the joints. The dangerous part of driveway work isn’t the paver itself, it’s what’s underneath. If the base has failed, pulling pavers without rebuilding the base means you’ll redo the work in a year, and a half-ton pallet of pavers delivered to a San Antonio driveway is not something to move by hand unless you enjoy lower back pain. We also see homeowners try to match a 20-year-old Tremron color from a photo, and they always end up with a patch that looks like a patch. Come by with a physical sample or let us match it for you. For anything beyond a single paver swap, call (432) 547-6806 and use the free estimate, even if you end up doing the work yourself.
FAQs
A properly installed Tremron paver driveway with an 80mm paver and a compacted base lasts 25 to 40 years in San Antonio’s climate, with the top surface showing UV fading after 10 to 15 years. The pavers themselves rarely fail; what fails is the base underneath. Call (432) 547-6806 if you’re seeing the early signs, and we’ll tell you what you’re actually looking at.
No, a cracked paver can’t be structurally repaired; the crack is through the full unit and it will only widen with freeze-thaw cycles and traffic. The good news is single paver replacement is fast and inexpensive relative to the rest of the driveway. Call (432) 547-6806 with the paver dimensions and we’ll confirm stock before you pay for anything.
A standard two-car Tremron paver driveway in San Antonio takes 3 to 5 working days from demo to final sand sweep, assuming the weather cooperates and the base doesn’t need a full rebuild. A repair section takes one day in most cases. We’ll give you a written schedule with your quote, and The Relay Visibility Guarantee means photo updates before and after, with a live arrival time so you’re not waiting on a four-hour window.
We stock a range of Tremron-compatible pavers in common San Antonio colors, including the gray and tan blends most driveways use, and we can order OEM Tremron pavers within a few days for less common lines. If a color is discontinued, we bring you physical samples to match before ordering. Call (432) 547-6806 and we’ll check the shelf while you’re on the phone.
