Chesterfield Brick Paving is a referral service for homeowners in Chesterfield Township, New Baltimore and north Macomb County who want a patio, driveway, walkway or other paving project built or repaired. We are not a contractor and we do not do the work ourselves. When you call or submit a request, we pass it to an independent local paving or hardscape contractor who handles that kind of work, and they contact you directly to discuss the project and give you a quote.
We want to be clear about that up front because there is a lot of confusing marketing in home improvement. You should always know who you are talking to.
Why This Site Exists
Finding a paving contractor can be harder than it should be. Good hardscapers are often busy, many do not invest much in websites, and it can be hard to tell from the outside who builds patios that last and who cuts corners on the base. At the same time, a lot of the paving advice online is written for warmer, sandier places and does not apply to the clay soils and winters of Southeast Michigan.
This site has two goals:
- Explain paving honestly, with information specific to our area: freeze-thaw, frost heave, lake-plain clay, base depth, snowplows and salt.
- Make it easy to reach a local contractor with one phone call or a short form.
What We Do
- Answer the phone or receive your form submission.
- Pass your project details to an independent local contractor who serves your area and does that type of work.
- That contractor contacts you to schedule a visit and give a quote.
There is no cost to you for the referral.
What We Do Not Do
- We do not perform paving work, provide materials or supervise jobs.
- We do not give binding quotes. Only the contractor who visits your property can do that.
- We do not hold contractor licenses or permits; those are the contractor's responsibility.
- We do not guarantee the contractor's work. Your contract, warranty and any disputes are between you and the contractor you hire.
How We Write Our Pages
Every service page on this site follows the same principles.
Local conditions first. We focus on what matters in north Macomb County: clay soil, freeze-thaw cycles, frost heave, drainage on flat lots, salt and snowplows. Base depth guidance on our pages reflects common industry practice for cold climates, but every site is different.
Honest cost information. We do not publish our own prices because we are not the contractor. Where we mention costs, they are general national estimates from published cost guides such as HomeGuide, clearly labeled and linked so you can read the source. Local quotes can be higher or lower.
No invented credentials. You will not see made-up reviews, fake awards or fabricated statistics on this site. If a contractor has licenses, insurance, reviews and photos of past work, ask them for it directly and verify it.
No pretend photos. Images on this site are general illustrations of paving and hardscape projects, not photos of a specific contractor's work. Ask any contractor you are considering to show you real photos of their own past projects.
How to Choose a Contractor
Whether you find a contractor through us or on your own, the same advice applies.
- Get written quotes that spell out excavation depth, base material and thickness, fabric, bedding layer, paver product and thickness, edge restraint, joint sand, drainage, cleanup and warranty.
- Compare like with like. A low quote with half the base depth is not the same job.
- Ask about permits and who will pull them, if any are needed.
- Check insurance. Ask for a certificate of liability insurance.
- Check licensing where it applies to the work. In Michigan, some types of residential work require a state license; you can look up licenses through the state's licensing lookup.
- Look at old work. Ask for addresses or photos of projects that are several years old. Two winters tell you more than any brochure.
- Read the contract before you sign. Understand the payment schedule and avoid paying most of the cost up front.
- Get more than one quote on larger projects.

A Few Honest Expectations
Paving is outdoor construction, and it depends on weather, soil and scheduling. Here is what to expect when you reach out.
- Response time depends on the season. In late spring and early summer, contractors are busiest; in fall and winter they may have more time to visit and plan for next season.
- Site visits are normal. A contractor needs to see the area, check grade and drainage, and measure before giving a real quote.
- Winter planning. Many paving jobs are not built in the coldest months, but winter is a good time to plan, get quotes and get on a spring schedule.
- Quotes vary. Different contractors may recommend different approaches. Ask each one to explain why.
