Belgard Construction in Broadmoor, CA | Brookside Contractors
We provide independent Belgard paver driveway, patio, and retaining wall installation across Broadmoor and the surrounding 94015 area of Daly City, with Broadmoor General Contractor expertise built for this built-out enclave. The thing that sets our Belgard work apart here is simple: almost every job in Broadmoor starts with demolition, not open ground. This built-out enclave has no vacant lots, so your new Belgard surface replaces a 1940s – 60s concrete slab or old lawn, and the real work happens underneath the pavers. Call (833) 725-3508 for a free estimate, and we’ll tell you what’s actually under your existing driveway before we quote a single paver.
Why Broadmoor Residents Choose Us for Belgard Service
We’re not a dealer with a brand flag on the truck. We’re an independent general contractor, and that matters in Broadmoor because the fog here punishes hardscape that isn’t planned for it. Nate Burrell, our owner and GC, trained in construction technology at Gavilan College and spent years on job sites throughout South Santa Clara County before building Brookside Contractors. He’ll tell you the same thing on a Broadmoor Drive driveway as he tells clients in Morgan Hill: a paver is only as good as the base under it. When you work with us, you get Belgard sales & service knowledge applied to your specific lot, not a one-size-fits-all installation spec. We use Belgard’s own edge restraints, polymeric joint sand, and compatible wall cap units because aftermarket substitutes are where coastal installations in Broadmoor fail first.
We also handle the scope most paver companies won’t touch. If your Belgard patio or driveway job means removing an old concrete pour, hauling it out through a tight shared driveway, rebuilding a saturated base, and tying into an existing soft-story garage, that’s what we do under one contract. One contractor, every phase. That’s the advantage our Broadmoor clients get.

Common Belgard Construction Problems We Solve in Broadmoor
- Fog-driven efflorescence and joint sand washout on Mega-Arbel and Dublin Cobble. Broadmoor sits in the Daly City fog belt, so pavers stay damp for months. When base drainage was never designed for persistent onshore moisture, you get white mineral staining and joints that empty out. We pull the affected field, re-grade the base, and relay with Belgard-compatible polymeric sand that locks the joints.
- Paver settling and lippage over old pier-and-post footprints. Many Broadmoor homes from the 1940s – 60s have had sections of foundation or deck support reworked over the decades. When a paver field is laid over a compacted wet base or under-excavated fill, you get sink spots and tripping hazards. We over-excavate, compact in lifts, and relay the field flat.
- Edge restraint failure and paver creep on old concrete aprons. The single most common short-cut we see in Broadmoor is a mid-century concrete driveway apron left in place under a new Belgard installation. The pavers shift, the edge opens, and the whole field creeps. We cut and remove the old pour where it interferes, then build proper restraints.
- Spalled and stained Weston Stone wall caps on west-facing exposures. Salt-laden marine air and wind-driven rain do a number on mortared caps and unit faces. We replace damaged units with the matching Belgard product line and re-point with a mortar suited to coastal exposure.
- Saturated subgrade under a Catalina paver driveway. The fog feeds moisture into the ground beneath old Broadmoor slabs for decades. When we break out a 1950s pour, the subgrade is often saturated. We excavate, bring in compacted base rock, and reset the slope away from the garage so water never sits under your pavers again.
Belgard Service in Broadmoor: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Broadmoor is a tiny, fully built-out enclave of Daly City in 94015. There’s no vacant land, which means nearly every Belgard paver driveway or patio here replaces an existing 1940s – 60s concrete slab or an old lawn. That changes the entire job. Demolition of the old pour, hauling it out through a tight shared driveway, and rebuilding base where the original slab was never drained is the real scope, not laying pavers. Add the coastal fog belt on top of that: cool, damp summers, persistent onshore wind, and salt-laden marine air that drives chronic moisture and corrosion on everything exposed. In Broadmoor the stucco can look fine while the wood-frame behind it is quietly rotting. The same principle applies underfoot. A paver field can look level while the base underneath is saturated mush. That’s why we probe and inspect before we quote, and why we schedule exterior work around the fog season rather than the calendar’s idea of summer.
We saw this firsthand on a post-war ranch off the Broadmoor Drive loop. The homeowner wanted a Belgard Catalina paver driveway over what looked like an intact 1950s slab. When we broke out the concrete we found decades of fog moisture had saturated the subgrade and cracked the original pour along the old garage apron. We over-excavated, brought in compacted base rock, reset the driveway slope away from the garage, and laid the Catalina units with Belgard edge restraint. The whole pour-and-pave was scheduled around the fog season. Do it once, do it right, everything else is just a future repair bill.
Belgard Models & Products We Service in Broadmoor
We work with the Belgard lines that hold up best in Daly City’s marine climate. That includes Belgard Mega-Arbel pavers, Catalina granite pavers, Weston Stone retaining wall units, and Dublin Cobble pavers. When we install, we use Belgard’s own manufacturer edge restraints, joint sand, and matching wall caps, not aftermarket substitutes. If a paver field is sound, we lift, re-base, and relay it. If the base is saturated or the units are spalled from salt and fog, replacement of that section is the honest call. We keep common Belgard-compatible materials staged locally so Broadmoor turnaround doesn’t grind to a halt waiting on freight.

FAQs – Belgard Construction in Broadmoor
Because the base underneath has failed while the surface pavers still interlock enough to hide it. In Broadmoor this usually traces back to a saturated subgrade under an old concrete pour that was never removed, or a base compacted wet. The fix is lifting the affected field, over-excavating the bad base, and relaying with proper compaction and Belgard edge restraint. Call (833) 725-3508 and we’ll probe your field before quoting anything.
We generally won’t. The old mid-century slabs in Broadmoor are cracked, saturated underneath, and lack the edge support a paver field needs. Leaving the pour in place is how you end up with paver creep and a wavy surface two years later. We remove the old slab, rebuild the base, and lay Belgard pavers properly. If you want a lower-cost option, we’ll tell you honestly whether a concrete replacement makes more sense for your lot.
The fog belt means damp pavers, corroded base materials, and efflorescence on surfaces that never fully dry. That’s why we use Belgard’s own polymeric joint sand and manufacturer edge restraints, and why we re-grade bases for drainage first. Salt-laden air also attacks mortared wall caps on west-facing Weston Stone walls. We schedule exterior work around the fog season when possible and spec materials for coastal exposure. Call (833) 725-3508 for a site-specific read on your property.
Removing the lawn, excavating the sod and root layer, hauling it out, then bringing in compacted base rock before laying Belgard pavers with edge restraints. On a built-out Broadmoor lot, the demo and haul-off through a shared driveway is often the biggest part of the line-item quote. The finished patio is the easy part. We quote it honestly so you know what you’re paying for.
Yes. We’re a full-scope general contractor, not a niche paver shop.

One contractor, every phase. Call (833) 725-3508 to talk through the full scope.
