Interlocking Driveway & Patio in Whitby

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 Whitby'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.

For larger small-town properties, cedar or pressure-treated wood fences offer the best value for long runs. Vinyl fencing is more expensive upfront but requires zero maintenance — a significant advantage for large perimeters. We help you balance cost, aesthetics, and maintenance requirements for your specific lot size.

Clean gutters twice yearly — after spring pollen and after fall leaves. Check for proper slope (¼" per 10 ft toward downspouts), tighten loose brackets, and ensure downspouts direct water at least 4 ft from the foundation. Gutter guards reduce maintenance significantly and are worth the investment on homes near trees.

Composite decking (Trex, TimberTech) handles Ontario's freeze-thaw cycles, UV exposure, and humidity without splitting, warping, or rotting. While it costs more than pressure-treated wood initially ($30–$45/sq ft vs. $20–$30 installed), the zero-maintenance longevity provides better value over 20+ years.
