For comparison only — not our price. What's included differs:
- $8,400 – $14,400 · San Diego, pavers installed WITH material (our price is install only — pavers by owner) · Install It Direct — paver cost (checked 2026-10-23)
The math
- 400 SF + 7% for cuts = 428 SF of pavers
- 400 SF × 4" of base ÷ 12 ÷ 27 × 1.25 compaction = 6.17 cu yd ≈ 8.6 tons
- 1" bedding sand ≈ 1.7 tons
- Pavers themselves are by owner or an allowance; the price is prep and install on a sand base.
