No, as long as the surface was installed flat and the plow uses a rubber or poly edge. We can also set a border course that gives the blade a clean run.

Paver Driveways in Sandwich, Illinois
A paver driveway carries far more weight than a patio, so it is built differently from the ground up. Excavation goes deeper, the aggregate base is thicker and compacted in lifts, and the paver itself is a thicker vehicular unit.
Done to spec, the result outlasts asphalt by decades and never needs resealing on a schedule. If a utility has to be dug up, or a section settles after a very wet year, the pavers come out and go back in - you are not left with a patch.
We handle aprons, turnarounds, parking pads and full replacements, including tie-ins to existing concrete and garage slabs.

Why It Matters
Handles winter
A plow-friendly surface with tight joints and no seams to crack and heave.
Serviceable
Utility work or a settled area can be repaired invisibly - lift, re-base, reset.
Curb appeal that pays back
Driveways are the largest visible surface on most properties; upgrading one changes the whole front of the house.

Common Questions
Will a snowplow damage pavers?
Can you do just the apron?
How thick is the base for a driveway?
Considerably thicker than a walkway - typically 10 to 12 inches of compacted aggregate depending on soil, plus a vehicular-grade paver.
Yes. Aprons and entry sections are a common way to get the paver look without replacing the entire drive.
