Belgard Construction in Georgetown, TX | Penhallow Remodeling Austin
We provide our Belgard services across Georgetown, from Old Town’s historic district to the new subdivisions east of I-35. What makes our Belgard work different here is simple: we’ve rebuilt enough patios and driveways on Georgetown’s expansive clay to know which failures are surface-level and which ones mean the base underneath is shot. If your Belgard pavers are shifting, rocking, or turning chalky white, call Trevor Nash and the Penhallow crew at (325) 225-5429. We’re not a Belgard dealer, which means our only loyalty is to the paver job that lasts.
Why Georgetown Residents Choose Us for Belgard Service
Belgard makes a good paver system. We work with their Mega-Arbel, Catalina, and Dublin lines, plus Weston Wall blocks. But any paver is only as solid as what’s underneath it, and Georgetown’s soil doesn’t do anyone any favors. We know the clay around here expands in wet springs and contracts through hot, dry Augusts. That cycle is what pushes pavers into waves if the base wasn’t built right in the first place. Trevor Nash grew up around construction, trained at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College, and has spent well over a decade as a General Contractor in Georgetown fixing Austin-area hardscape and remodels. He started Penhallow Remodeling on one idea: give the customer a real number on day one and then do exactly what you said you’d do.
Our crews work on Belgard pavers across Georgetown’s ranch-style yards and new subdivisions every week. We know the difference between a paver that failed because it was laid wrong and one that failed because the drainage plan didn’t account for a Georgetown flash flood. Being independent means our recommendations come from watching how these systems actually perform here, not from a manufacturer’s sales sheet. When you call, a real person answers. When we show up, it’s a background-checked, uniformed technician. And every job gets a written price before we move a single paver.

Common Belgard Construction Problems We Solve in Georgetown
We see the same handful of Belgard issues across Georgetown, and most of them trace back to local soil, water, and heat. Here’s what shows up most often:
- Paver shifting and settling on expansive clay. Georgetown’s clay soil swells when it rains and shrinks when it dries. Over a few wet-dry cycles, pavers that were flush in March can be visibly uneven by September. We rebuild the base with proper drainage rather than just resetting the surface.
- Efflorescence from hard water and irrigation overspray. That white, chalky film on Belgard pavers is mineral salt left behind when Georgetown’s hard water evaporates. Sprinklers aimed across the patio make it worse. We can clean it and recommend adjustments so it doesn’t come right back.
- Edge restraint failure on driveways and patios. Georgetown’s summer heat regularly runs over 100 degrees. Cheap plastic edging warps and pulls away from the paver field, letting the outer course drift outward. We replace failed edging with proper restraint that holds in Central Texas temperatures.
- Polymeric sand erosion after flash floods. When a Georgetown storm drops two inches in thirty minutes, runoff chases across paver joints and washes the sand out. Then weeds move in and pavers start rocking. We re-sand joints and fix the drainage that caused the washout in the first place.
- Color mismatch on add-on projects. Adding a new paver section next to an old one without matching the exact Belgard series and color looks like a patch job. We match original colors and textures so the addition reads as part of the original design.
Belgard Service in Georgetown: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
If you own a Belgard patio or driveway in Old Town, there’s a rule you need to know about before you replace or expand it. Georgetown’s Historic and Architectural Review Commission, the HARC, requires new hardscape visible from the street to use materials compatible with the district’s native limestone and early concrete. That’s a real review process, not a formality. Homeowners who file for a front walkway or streetscape-visible patio often get pushback on crisp, modern pavers that look like they belong in a new subdivision. But Belgard’s tumbled or antiqued lines, the ones with softened edges and a weathered finish, usually pass review because they read as old stone rather than manufactured tile. In practice, that means the product you pick matters for more than looks. It can determine whether your project gets approved at all.
This page is the only Belgard-focused service guide written specifically for Georgetown’s clay soils, historic district rules, and flash-flood drainage. You won’t find generic paver advice here. You’ll find what actually holds up in this town.
Belgard Models & Products We Service in Georgetown
We work on most Belgard paver and wall lines you’ll find around Georgetown. The big three in local yards are Mega-Arbel, a tumbled paver with that older-stone look that does well in the Old Town historic district, Catalina, a smooth-faced modern paver common in Georgetown’s newer subdivisions, and Dublin, a textured paver that splits the difference. We also rebuild and repair Weston Wall retaining and garden walls. For partial repairs and add-ons, we match the exact Belgard color and series. Aftermarket lookalikes might be cheaper up front, but the tone and texture never quite line up, and a mismatched patio tells everyone exactly where the repair happened. We keep common Belgard colors and jointing materials on hand for faster Georgetown turnaround. If a section is failing because the base or drainage is wrong, we’ll tell you honestly that rebuilding that section properly is the only fix that sticks. Resetting pavers on a bad base just buys you a year before the same waves come back.

What moves the number? For a patio, it’s the size of the field, the condition of the soil underneath, whether we need to export clay and bring in limestone base, and whether drainage needs to be rebuilt. A driveway adds edge restraints, base depth for vehicle loads, and usually more grading. Your free estimate includes a written line-item price, not a verbal range. Call (325) 225-5429 to set one up.

FAQs – Belgard Construction in Georgetown
Belgard pavers themselves rarely crack. What fails is the base underneath when Georgetown’s expansive clay goes through wet-dry cycles. A properly installed geogrid-reinforced limestone base with drainage handles the movement; a thin sand base does not. If your pavers are shifting, the base was likely undersized for the soil here.
Yes, in most cases we can identify the series and color by visual match, especially with lines like Mega-Arbel that have recognizable tumbled textures. We match against Belgard’s current catalog and verify against the existing field before ordering. The add-on gets the same color, texture, and jointing so the expansion doesn’t look like a patch. Call (325) 225-5429 and we’ll take a look.
A Belgard paver driveway holds up well if the base is built for Georgetown’s drainage patterns. The key is a compacted limestone base with enough depth for vehicle loads, plus edge restraints that won’t wash out during heavy runoff. Permeable paver systems can also help manage stormwater. Get the base right and a paver driveway here lasts decades.
Georgetown’s Historic and Architectural Review Commission reviews hardscape visible from the street in the Old Town district. Belgard’s tumbled or antiqued lines often get approved because they match the area’s native stone and early concrete. Crisp, modern-faced pavers frequently don’t. We can help you pick a line that fits the historic streetscape before you file.
That white film is efflorescence, mineral salts left behind when Georgetown’s hard water evaporates from the paver surface. Clean the surface and adjust irrigation so overspray doesn’t hit the patio. A quality sealer can also slow mineral absorption. For a patio that’s already heavily affected, call (325) 225-5429 and we’ll assess what’s cleanable versus what needs resetting.
