Unilock Construction in Claremont, CA | Stallion Contractors
We provide independent Unilock paver installation, repair, and re-leveling across Claremont, from the Village core to the foothill edges. The one thing that separates our Unilock work here: we plan every patio, walkway, and driveway around Claremont’s protected-tree review and expansive clay soils before we ever cut a base. That means fewer settlement callbacks and pavers that stay true through Santa Ana heat cycles. If you’re pricing a Unilock patio or driveway in the 91711 ZIP, call (855) 600-3192 for a free, line-item estimate.

Why Claremont Residents Choose Us for Unilock Service
We’ve been installing and repairing Unilock hardscapes in Claremont long enough to know what the Brussels Block and Cambridge lines actually do after three Inland Empire summers. The catalog shows clean joints and tight edges. The real world shows efflorescence, shifting bases, and root heave where the city’s mature oaks push against a field. Ruben Montoya, our owner, grew up in Colton, not far from Pepper Avenue, where the soil moves the same way it does in Claremont. He learned early that a paver is only as good as the base under it. Good work doesn’t need a sales pitch – it needs the right materials and someone who knows what they’re doing.
As an independent contractor, we choose Unilock because its paver systems hold up to Claremont’s hot, dry summers better than most. We’re not authorized by the manufacturer, and we don’t need to be. We stock matching color lots, quality polymeric sands, and edge restraints rated for high-heat climates so repairs blend and last. When a Claremont homeowner calls us about a shifting walkway, we show up with a plan, not a brochure.

Common Unilock Construction Problems We Solve in Claremont
- Efflorescence blooming on Brussels Block and Cambridge pavers. Claremont’s first hot, dry summer pulls calcium salts to the paver surface, leaving a white haze on darker units. It’s cosmetic but stubborn, and the fix depends on the paver’s base chemistry. We clean and, where needed, re-seal so the field reads even again.
- Polymeric joint sand washing out or cracking. Santa Ana winds bake joints, and the dry heat makes low-grade sands brittle. When joints fail, pavers shift under foot traffic. We re-sweep with hot-climate-rated polymeric sand and re-compact the field.
- Paver settlement and heaving from expansive clay soils. Claremont’s south-side ranch homes sit on clay that swells and shrinks with moisture. Add mature sycamore and coast live oak roots, and you get lifted units and wavy edges. We lift, re-base, and re-set when the base is still sound.
- Edge restraint and base failure on driveways and walkways. A base cut too shallow for vehicle load ruts and lips off at the edges. We see this on older Claremont driveways where the original base was thin. New restraint systems and proper base depth fix the failure permanently.
- Color-mismatched patches from prior repairs. A previous contractor grabs whatever paver is on the shelf, and the repair reads like a scar. We source genuine Unilock units and matching color lots so the patch disappears into the field.
Unilock Service in Claremont: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Claremont is a designated Tree City. That’s not a marketing line. It means the city’s coast live oaks and sycamores carry legal protection, and any excavation near their root zones gets reviewed before grading starts. For a Unilock patio or driveway, that review changes everything. We can’t always cut the base to a uniform eight inches. Sometimes we hold at four or five, use a permeable joint system, and keep water moving to the roots below. This is not how a generic paving crew operates, and it’s why some Claremont paver jobs fail: the base gets cut too deep too close to a protected root, the tree suffers, and the city catches it. We’ve worked through Claremont’s tree-protection review enough times to know where the line sits and how to design around it. On a Craftsman near the Colleges, we tore out a cracked concrete walk and re-set a Unilock Brussels Block entry patio, but the root zone of the property’s mature coast live oak sat right where the new base would go. We kept excavation shallow with a permeable joint system, re-laid the pavers to clear the protected roots, and a season later there was no settlement. The oak never blinked.
Unilock Models & Products We Service in Claremont
We install and repair the full Unilock paver range most common across Claremont: Brussels Block, Cambridge Pavingstones, Beacon Hill Flagstone, and the Brussel Dimensions hollandstone-style pavers. Repairs get tricky when a color lot is discontinued. We keep a local inventory of common Claremont tones and order genuine Unilock units for exact matches where possible. If you have a short walk of Brussels Block that needs three squares replaced, we’ll pull from our stock before ordering from the plant. For full Unilock sales & service, we handle everything from material selection to final compaction.

FAQs – Unilock Construction in Claremont
Yes. We work within Claremont’s tree-protection review, keeping excavation shallow near root zones and often switching to permeable jointing so water and air still reach the roots. Call (855) 600-3192 for a site walk and specific plan for your tree.
That’s efflorescence. Claremont’s hot, dry first summer pulls calcium salts to the paver surface, leaving a white film on darker units. It’s not a defect, but it’s cleanable. Call (855) 600-3192 and we’ll tell you if it needs cleaning, sealing, or just another season to settle.
Yes, directly. The expansive clay under much of Claremont swells with winter moisture and shrinks through summer, which shifts thin bases and lifts pavers. We cut deeper bases on driveway work and use edge restraints rated for that movement. Call (855) 600-3192 for an exact quote on your driveway.
We pull from our local stock of common Claremont tones first. If an exact match isn’t available, we source the closest genuine Unilock lot and blend the repair into the field pattern so it doesn’t read as a patch.
It depends on the site. Near protected trees or on slopes where runoff matters, we typically use permeable jointing. On flat, open fields with solid drainage, standard polymeric sand works fine. We’ll tell you which one your property needs before we write the estimate.
