Permeable concrete paving provides stormwater management through pavement surfaces that allow water infiltration into underlying base materials and soils. This approach reduces runoff volumes, decreases drainage infrastructure requirements, and may contribute to green building certifications and municipal stormwater requirements. Permeable systems are increasingly specified for commercial parking lots, plaza areas, and developments with limited stormwater detention capacity.

Pervious concrete uses carefully proportioned concrete mixes with reduced fines that create interconnected void spaces allowing water passage. Proper mix design, placement, and curing are essential for achieving both structural performance and infiltration capacity. We work with concrete suppliers to specify and verify pervious concrete performance.

Permeable interlocking concrete pavers (PICP) use specially designed units with joint spaces filled with permeable aggregate. Water flows through joints into reservoir base materials that provide temporary storage and gradual infiltration. PICP systems offer design flexibility and easier maintenance access than monolithic pervious concrete.

Base system design determines overall infiltration capacity and structural support. Open-graded aggregate reservoirs store water during storm events while allowing gradual infiltration. Geotextile fabrics prevent soil migration while allowing water passage. Underdrains may be required where soil infiltration rates are insufficient.

As a general contractor, we deliver complete permeable paving systems including base construction, surface installation, and maintenance documentation. Direct contracts ensure accountability for both structural and stormwater performance.

Frequently Asked Questions About Permeable Paving & Stormwater Management

What permeable paving systems do you install?

We install pervious concrete, permeable interlocking concrete pavers (PICP), and aggregate-based permeable systems. System selection depends on loading requirements, infiltration goals, and aesthetic preferences.

Where is permeable paving appropriate?

Permeable paving works well for parking stalls, pedestrian plazas, and low-traffic areas. High-traffic drive aisles typically use conventional concrete with drainage to permeable zones.

What maintenance do permeable systems require?

Permeable systems require periodic vacuum sweeping to remove sediment from void spaces or joints. Frequency depends on surrounding conditions and debris accumulation. We provide maintenance recommendations with every installation.

Do permeable systems count toward stormwater requirements?

Yes, permeable paving typically qualifies for stormwater credits depending on local requirements. Infiltration and detention capacity may reduce or eliminate conventional detention requirements.

What is the cost compared to conventional paving?

Permeable systems typically cost more per square foot than conventional paving. However, reduced detention infrastructure may offset higher pavement costs. Total site development costs should be compared.
