Definition: What Are Belgard, Keystone, and Techo-Bloc Pavers?

These are premium concrete paving stones and wall blocks manufactured and engineered specifically for landscaping, driveways, patios, and walkways. Key characteristics include:

• Belgard: Well-known for high-strength, color-blended pavers designed for driveways, patios, and walls; many lines are CSA/ASTM tested for freeze–thaw and deicing conditions.
• Keystone: A leading manufacturer of segmental retaining walls and classic paver styles like Holland, Roman, and modern slab or block patterns.
• Techo-Bloc: Recognized for innovative shapes, textures, and surface finishes with outstanding resistance to Canadian winters and salts.

Step-by-Step Framework: Buying Pavers and Planning Materials with TUDS

1. Initial Consultation: Online or In-Store

• Visit us: Bring photos, rough yard measurements, inspiration images, or sketches to our Regina (141 4th Ave E) or Saskatoon (320 68 St E) store. Or start a conversation online via our contact form or request a FREE quote.
• Discuss project goals: We’ll clarify your planned use (patio, walkway, pool, driveway), site challenges (clay, sand, slope, drainage), and preferred styles.

2. Product Selection: Choose the Right Paver For Your Design

• Shop our in-stock lines, including:
  Keystone Holland Pavers

  

  Keystone Roman Pavers

  

  Belgard Holland 4x8 Grey

  

  ...and more, depending on current inventory.
  Techo-Bloc models are also available for order through our supplier relationships.
• We explain the pros, pricing, best applications, and color options for each line, so your decision is informed and aligned with overall design goals.

3. Full Material Calculation

• We use your exact site measurements (area, layout, curve/straight edges) to provide a detailed material list.
• The calculation includes:
  • Square footage of pavers needed (always with a 5–10% waste/cutting buffer)
  • Base aggregate (crushed stone or clear gravel) in cubic yards or tons, based on the area and intended use
    • 6–8 inches (0.5–0.67 ft) of compacted base for patios/walkways
    • 12 inches (1 ft) for driveways
  • Bedding sand for a 1-inch screeded layer, typically around 0.33–0.35 cubic yards per 100 square feet
  • Edging: Linear feet of edge restraint (such as Snap Edge in 8 ft pieces)
    • All open sides are calculated for proper containment
  • Polymeric joint sand by bag, matching paver type and joint width
  • Landscape fabric/geotextile and geogrid if needed
• Our team reviews the calculation with you, answers questions, and allows you to make changes before confirming your order.

4. Delivery Coordination

• We work with each customer to schedule delivery for a convenient day and time, coordinating with your crew or rental equipment.
• Local materials can be dropped curbside, on driveways, or staged in order of use to simplify construction workflow.
• We also ship across Canada and to select US regions. See more about our delivery services.
• Many customers highlight our prompt, careful delivery and support when adjustments are needed partway through a project.

Best Practices for Paver Installation in Canadian Climates

• Excavate and compact to the industry-recommended depth for your use (see tips here).
• Use 0–3/4 inch crushed stone or clear gravel for the base, compacted in layers.
• Bedding sand layer should be screeded, not compacted before pavers are installed. Final compaction takes place after pavers are in place and joint sand is brushed in.
• Always use proper edge restraints to contain the paver field. TUDS recommends systems like Snap Edge Paver Edging 8' for straight and curved layouts.

  

• Choose polymeric joint sand formulated for your climate and paver size; apply according to manufacturer guidelines and water in gently for proper setting.
• Plan for a slight slope (2%) away from the house or structures to prevent water pooling and freeze/thaw damage.
• Limit use of deicing salt on decorative pavers; select salt-tolerant products or sand to reduce the risk of surface scaling over time.

Comparison: Why Not Just Buy From a Box Store?

• Big-box retailers may carry a limited selection of generic pavers but rarely offer Belgard, Keystone, or Techo-Bloc lines. Their staff often lack in-depth knowledge and do not provide quantitative takeoff or site-specific advice.
• The Ultimate Deck Shop difference: Personalized, detailed planning and consultation from a team specializing solely in decks, patios, and hardscaping. We check, double-check, and adapt your order for local soil, climate, and install method. Reviews consistently praise our service, product choices, and mistake-avoidance on large material orders.
• Learn more about how specialist material suppliers prevent project delays and costly mistakes: What store can help me figure out whether I need deck blocks, adjustable supports, or screw piles before I order materials?

Who Benefits: Homeowners, DIYers, and Professional Contractors

• Homeowners and DIYers: Get all materials pre-verified, a printed or digital build list, and help staging product from site prep down to joint sand. We also provide assisted builds for complex work—our crew builds the substructure, you finish the surface (see: Regina Assisted DIY Install for the deck example; the principles apply to hardscapes).
• Contractors/Pros: Access to bulk discounts, the TUDS Pro service, in-stock specialty products, and a consistent quoting and delivery process for multiple projects per season.
