Interlocking Pavers
Gatineau
Our specialty for 15 years, right here in Gatineau. Patios, driveways, stairs and retaining walls installed by experts who know the region's clay soils.
Bélair Aménagement is a Gatineau contractor specializing in interlocking pavers since 2011. We design and install patios, driveways, stairs and retaining walls for homeowners in Hull, Gatineau, Aylmer, Buckingham and Masson-Angers.
Working in Gatineau means knowing its ground. Much of the city sits on clay soils that move with moisture and freeze-thaw cycles. That's why every project starts with complete excavation, a geotextile membrane and a crushed-stone base compacted in layers — the only way to get a surface that stays level for decades.
From the Plateau neighbourhood to the banks of the Ottawa River, we adapt every installation to your home's architecture and offer a wide selection of colours, textures and formats from the best manufacturers.

Frequently asked questions about pavers in Gatineau
How much does interlocking paver installation cost in Gatineau?
Cost varies by surface area, paver type and terrain preparation. For a standard patio in Gatineau, expect $18 to $35 per square foot, including excavation, compacted base and installation. Request a free quote for an exact price tailored to your project.
Why do Gatineau's clay soils require a special base?
Much of Gatineau, especially the Hull and Gatineau sectors, sits on clay soils that swell and contract with moisture and frost. Without deep excavation and a well-compacted crushed-stone base, pavers can shift and settle. That's why we pay special attention to the foundation and drainage.
Do you serve every sector of Gatineau?
Yes. We install interlocking pavers in every sector of Gatineau — Hull, Gatineau, Aylmer, Buckingham and Masson-Angers — as well as across the wider Outaouais.
When is the best time to install pavers in Gatineau?
The ideal season runs from May to November in Gatineau. We can work as long as the ground isn't frozen. Planning your project early in spring ensures a spot in our summer schedule.
What's the difference between pavers and poured concrete?
Pavers are flexible, they move with the soil without cracking, unlike poured concrete which cracks with Gatineau's freeze-thaw cycles. Pavers are also easier to repair: damaged sections can be replaced without redoing the entire surface.
