San Diego County's inland valleys sit on expansive Diablo clay that swells in the rainy season and shrinks in dry months. Paver bases, retaining walls, and drains on these soils need deeper excavation, compacted road base, and geotextile fabric to hold their shape. Hillside lots from coastal bluffs to Escondido ridgelines add grade changes that make retaining walls a common need.

Inland communities such as Poway, Escondido, El Cajon, and Santee have significant clay content. Our paver installations start with excavation to 4 to 6 inches for patios and 8 to 12 inches for driveways. We compact the base to 95 percent and include non-woven geotextile fabric as standard.
Retaining walls on these lots need drainage behind the blocks. Without perforated pipe and gravel backfill, water pressure can push a wall over. We add geogrid reinforcement on walls over 2 feet and pour concrete footings for structural walls and outdoor kitchen islands.
Pavers suit clay soil because they flex as a system. Concrete slabs crack when the ground shifts, so we recommend pavers for larger patios, pool decks, and sun-exposed areas where stamped concrete fades within a few years.
