Fast, Reliable Driveway & Pavers Across Los Serranos
Driveway work in Los Serranos comes down to two things: the clay soil under your feet and the Santa Ana winds that sweep through the Chino Hills every fall. A paver driveway here typically runs $7,000-$18,000, while a concrete pour lands between $4,500 and $12,000. The honest answer on timing: most driveways and paver jobs in the 91709 zip code take 3 to 10 days once we break ground, depending on scope, weather, and whether permits need Chino Hills inspection sign-off. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, and we’ve been laying pavers, pouring concrete, and fixing cracked slabs across Los Serranos long enough to know which streets have the worst soil movement and which inspectors check for WUI mesh on every vent. Call us at (877) 610-1318 and Tom or one of the crew will answer.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Los Serranos’s Preferred Driveway & Pavers Company
We’re not a franchise that sends a different crew every week. Tom Barrett owns the company, his sons run the crews, and when you call the office, a live person answers, 24/7. That matters in a hillside community like Los Serranos, where the difference between a driveway that lasts 20 years and one that cracks in five is knowing which lots sit on expansive clay and which ones drain toward the foundation. Our Driveway & Pavers team has replaced slabs on streets around the Los Serranos Country Club where mid-century homes were built on dirt that moves every wet-dry cycle. We pull Chino Hills permits on every eligible job and we put every price change in writing before a single wheelbarrow moves. No surprise invoices at the end. The 90-Day Done Right Promise is on every contract: if it’s not done right, Tom comes back.
We also keep our name verifiable. Tom publishes his name, address, and license number. Look it up before you sign anything. Ask a neighbor on your street about us, or check the work we’ve done on driveways throughout Los Serranos. The permit inspector works for you, not for us, and we like it that way.
Our Driveway & Pavers Services in Los Serranos
Paver Driveways
A paver driveway in Los Serranos isn’t just curb appeal; it’s drainage management on sloped Chino Hills lots. We install Belgard and Techo-Bloc pavers with proper base compaction and edge restraint so the pavers don’t wander downhill during winter rains. Expect $7,000-$18,000 depending on square footage, paver style, and whether we’re cutting into an existing slab or starting fresh. Permeable paver options can help with runoff on hillside properties, and we’ll walk through the trade-offs before you commit.

Concrete Driveways & Concrete Work
Concrete in Los Serranos needs to be poured thick enough and reinforced well enough to handle clay soil movement. Most driveway pours here run $4,500-$12,000, with stamped concrete pushing toward the higher end of that range. We schedule pours around summer heat, because concrete that cures too fast in 100°F weather develops surface cracks you’ll see within a year. Expansion joints get cut the same day, not next week. If you’re replacing a driveway at an older mid-century home near the country club, we’ll check the existing sub-base before quoting, because what’s under the old slab tells us more than what’s on top of it.

Asphalt Driveways & Resurfacing
Asphalt paving and resurfacing in Los Serranos runs $3,500-$9,000 for a typical residential driveway. Asphalt handles the wet-dry clay cycles better than unreinforced concrete in some cases, and it’s a faster install. The trade-off is maintenance: sealcoating every two to three years keeps water out of the surface, which matters more on hillside driveways where runoff collects. We offer Driveway & Pavers sealing and resurfacing as part of our hardscape work, and we’ll tell you plainly if a full tear-out is smarter money than a resurface.

Driveway Repair & Replacement
Clay soil heave cracks slabs, Santa Ana winds blow debris that chips edges, and older Los Serranos homes sometimes sit on driveways poured before current code. Replacement runs $5,000-$14,000 depending on removal, base work, and whether the driveway pitch needs correcting for drainage. We replace driveways throughout Los Serranos, from the 1920s-era cottages near the golf course to the 1980s and 2000s hillside tracts, and we handle the permit and inspection when one’s required. If your driveway has shifted enough to pool water against the garage, that’s a repair we’d rather talk about sooner than later.
We also build patios, walkways, and pool decks in Los Serranos, and if your driveway project is part of a bigger home improvement push, we handle Kitchen Remodeling in Los Serranos and Home Additions & ADU in Los Serranos as well.

Trusted Brands We Service in Los Serranos
We carry Belgard and Techo-Bloc pavers, and when a driveway job calls for drainage or waterproofing details, we use products from GAF and Schluter where they apply. These are brands you can look up, not mystery materials off a van. For Los Serranos customers, we keep common paver styles and concrete supplies stocked so a small repair doesn’t turn into a week of waiting on a distributor. If your driveway sits in the WUI fire zone, we’ll spec materials that hold up to ember exposure alongside the hardscape work, because the same attention to fire-resistant detail that applies to your roofline applies to what’s right next to the house.
Common Driveway & Pavers Problems We See in Los Serranos Homes
- Clay-soil slab cracks: The expansive soils across the Chino Hills move with every wet-dry cycle. We see longitudinal cracks and slab sections that have shifted a half-inch or more, particularly on older lots around the Los Serranos Country Club.
- Santa Ana debris damage: Wind-driven branches, gravel, and embers hit driveways and pavers every fall. Surface chips and edge breaks on paver borders are common in exposed hillside locations.
- Drainage problems on slopes: Hillside driveways that weren’t pitched correctly send water toward the garage or down the slope and under the slab. In Los Serranos, that water finds clay, expands the clay, and lifts the concrete.
- WUI code misses on adjacent work: We routinely see driveways, walkways, and hardscape that out-of-area crews built without accounting for the fire-zone requirements that govern the whole Los Serranos envelope. The detail people miss most: ventilation mesh and material choices that inspectors flag when they walk the property.

Yes. We work throughout the 91709 zip code, from the older residential core around the Los Serranos Country Club up to the hillside tracts. Hillside access doesn’t change our pricing structure, though steep lots sometimes call for additional base or drainage work, which we’ll quote before any work starts.
If a section of your driveway has shifted enough to block access or cause a drainage issue against the foundation, call us and we’ll get someone out quickly. This isn’t emergency roofing, so we won’t promise a same-day tear-out, but we’ll tell you honestly what needs to happen and what it’ll cost. Estimates are free, and the second opinion is free too.
Not by much on the base install. A paver driveway in Los Serranos runs $7,000-$18,000, which is in line with surrounding Chino Hills pricing. Where Los Serranos jobs add cost: hillside drainage corrections, clay-soil base prep, and WUI-related material details if the hardscape ties into fire-zone requirements. We’ll show you those line items rather than burying them.
Every job carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing: if something’s not done right, Tom comes back and makes it right with one call. Beyond that, the materials carry their own manufacturer warranties, and we’ll explain the difference between a paver warranty and a concrete warranty before you sign. Call (877) 610-1318 for specifics on your project.
