Interlocking Driveway & Patio in Scugog

A typical driveway takes 3-5 days, while a patio or walkway may take 2-3 days. Timeline depends on size, site conditions, and weather. RenoHouse provides a clear schedule during your consultation.

Concrete interlocking pavers are the most popular for driveways — they're durable, affordable, and available in many styles. Natural stone offers premium aesthetics. For eco-friendly options, permeable pavers allow water drainage and reduce ice formation.

We use geotextile fabric beneath the base layer and fill joints with polymeric sand that hardens when wet, preventing weed growth and ant activity. Periodic reapplication of polymeric sand every few years maintains this protection.

Yes, interlocking pavers are ideal for Scugog's freeze-thaw cycles. Unlike poured concrete, individual pavers flex independently, preventing large cracks. Proper base preparation and drainage ensure long-term durability through harsh GTA winters.

Yes, RenoHouse installs interlocking patios, walkways, pool surrounds, and garden paths in addition to driveways. We create custom designs that complement your home's style and landscape.

In most cases, replacing an existing driveway surface doesn't require a permit. However, if you're expanding the driveway area or changing grading, a permit may be needed. RenoHouse advises on requirements during your free estimate.

RenoHouse provides a workmanship warranty on all interlocking installations covering settling, shifting, and drainage. Paver manufacturers typically offer 25-year to lifetime warranties on their products.

Long rural driveways face more freeze-thaw damage and erosion than shorter urban ones. Annual grading for gravel driveways and crack-sealing for asphalt prevents deterioration. Proper drainage at the edges and culvert maintenance prevent water pooling that leads to washouts — especially important during spring thaw.

Fiber cement siding (James Hardie) offers the best durability for rural homes — it resists wind, rain, UV, insects, and fire. Vinyl siding is a cost-effective alternative but may suffer wind damage in exposed locations. We recommend heavier-gauge vinyl with enhanced wind-lock systems for rural applications.

Absolutely — wraparound porches are a classic country home feature that we love building. We design them to complement your home's architecture, handle snow loads per Ontario code, and use materials (composite or cedar) that withstand the elements. The result is beautiful covered outdoor living space for enjoying your rural setting.
