Permeable Paver Systems for Minnesota

Sustainable Hardscape for the Twin Cities

Traditional hardscape surfaces create impervious coverage that directs stormwater into municipal systems, contributing to combined sewer overflows, erosion, and pollution of Minnesota's lakes and rivers. Permeable paver systems offer an alternative that allows rainfall to infiltrate naturally, mimicking the hydrology of undeveloped land.

In the Minneapolis-Saint Paul metro area, stormwater management is increasingly regulated. Many municipalities require runoff mitigation for projects exceeding certain impervious surface thresholds. Permeable pavement can help satisfy these requirements while eliminating the need for detention ponds, rain gardens, or underground storage systems in some applications.

Our permeable paver installations use Permeable Interlocking Concrete Pavement (PICP) technology—the same proven systems used in commercial applications, scaled for residential use. These systems combine the aesthetics of traditional pavers with environmental responsibility and often superior performance in Minnesota's freeze-thaw climate.
