Why San Antonio Homeowners Choose Tremron Construction
Tremron hardscape products, paver driveways, patios, walkways, and pool coping, are built in Florida for coastal conditions, but San Antonio’s gumbo clay and 100°F summers push them harder than most installs ever see. Mason Remodeling Co San Antonio provides independent San Antonio Tremron service, including construction, repair, and re-leveling across the metro, from Alamo Heights to Stone Oak, and we’ve been working with these specific paver lines since 2009. We are not affiliated with or authorized by Tremron. We’re a local San Antonio contractor who knows how their units perform, fail, and get fixed here better than any out-of-town crew can claim.
Isaac Pruett, our owner, grew up in Los Angeles and trained at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College before spending two decades building across the Southwest. He and our crew have worked San Antonio jobs for years, from gut renovations near King William to hardscape rebuilds in Terrell Hills, and we also serve customers looking for Tremron in Boerne. If you want straight answers about your Tremron pavers, call us at (254) 269-5071.

Why Trust Mason Remodeling Co San Antonio for Your Tremron Construction?
Our San Antonio team has inspected and repaired hundreds of Tremron paver, wall, and slab installations since 2009, from 20-year-old Mega-Arbel driveways in Alamo Heights to freshly laid 60mm Bullnose pool decks in Stone Oak. That practical history means we know exactly how Tremron units behave under Texas sun and gumbo clay. When a Mega-Arbel driveway sinks along the tire track, we know it’s almost always a base failure, not a paver defect. When a Grand Urbana patio blooms white, we know the hard water is wicking up through the sand bed, and we know how to stop it without stripping the paver surface.
Isaac has a running list of every problem a homeowner has ever blamed on a previous contractor. Not to vent, but because each one taught him something worth remembering. That list is why we re-grade bases instead of patching, why we match 15-year-old paver colors under full sun instead of in a warehouse, and why we never promise a mud-set patch on a flex-base driveway in August. Our technicians are background-checked and identity-verified under the Threshold Standard, and you get each technician’s name and photo before the visit, plus a photo ID badge at the door. Know who’s coming, know what it costs, know it’s covered – that’s the whole job before the job starts.
Common Tremron Construction Problems We Fix in San Antonio
Here’s what we actually see on Tremron installs across San Antonio. Not generic paver talk. These are field failures with causes we can point to on your specific property.
- Efflorescence blooms on Mega-Arbel and Grand Urbana pavers. San Antonio water is hard. That mineral-laden moisture wicks up through the sand bed and evaporates at the paver surface, leaving a white chalky haze. It’s most visible under tree shade where evaporation slows and minerals concentrate. We see it within 3-5 years on most Tremron installs. It’s cosmetic, not structural, but it spreads and looks terrible. We remove it with the right cleaning chemistry, not acid that eats the paver surface.
- Settling and lippage at the garage apron on Mega-Arbel driveways. This is the one we fix most. The concrete driveway base ends, the paver base begins, and the transition sinks 1-2 inches over a few San Antonio summers. You get a trip lip right where you park, and the herringbone pattern starts to separate. The cause is almost always inadequate compaction at the transition, made worse by clay that shrinks in drought. Patching the top layer doesn’t fix it. The base underneath has to be re-graded.
- Edge chipping on Bullnose pool coping. Pool chemicals and our occasional freeze-thaw cycles work on the top bullnose edge. You’ll see the finished edge spall and flake in small crescents. The rest of the paver stays sound, but every sharp chip is a bare foot away from a cut. We replace individual Bullnose units when the base is fine, and we only pull and re-lay a section when the edge damage runs six or more linear feet.
- Weed and fire ant colonization in Grand Urbana sand joints. Tremron’s wider joint gaps catch windblown seed, and fire ants follow the loose sand right under the bedding layer. Within two seasons, your patio has grass growing through the joints and soft spots where ants tunneled. The fix is proper polymeric sand, installed at the right temperature and moisture window, then maintained. If the ants are already established, we treat the bed before re-sanding, not after.
- Serpentine cracking across older paver fields. On 15-20 year old installs, we see long wandering cracks that don’t follow any joint line. That’s a base problem, not a paver problem. Gumbo clay in San Antonio swells and shrinks dramatically with moisture, and an old base that was never geotextile-wrapped eventually mirrors those soil movements up through the pavers. We pull the affected section, install geotextile, re-compact, and re-lay the original Tremron units when they’re not cracked through.
Tremron Parts & Our Repair-vs-Replace Approach
We stock or source genuine Tremron pavers, caps, and wall units from regional distributors so color and texture match your existing hardscape exactly. For fasteners, geogrid, and edge restraints, we use equal-quality commercial parts from Tensar and Snap Edge. Those are the components you never see, but they keep your paver edge from drifting over time.
Our rule is simple and honest. If a single Tremron unit is cracked but the base is sound, we replace the unit. If the base has settled more than 1 inch across the pavement, we pull the section, re-grade, and re-install. Patching a settled base just moves the problem next season. On repair-vs-replace calls, we tell you what we’d do on our own house, and we put that recommendation in writing with the price before any work starts. Call (254) 269-5071 if you’re unsure which side of the line your project falls on. The estimate is free.
Our Tremron Service Process – Step by Step
Every Tremron job in San Antonio follows the same four steps. No shortcuts, no “we’ll see when we open it up.”
- 1
Diagnosis and base inspection. We map the settled area, check for base contamination, and measure the actual lippage in millimeters. On post-tension slab homes, we locate and mark the cables before any cutting. You get a written diagnosis with photos.
- 2
Written price and scope. We give you the line-item price before tools come off the truck. You’ll know exactly which Tremron units we’re reusing, which are being replaced, what base work is required, and how long it takes. No verbal estimates, no change orders for work you already approved.
- 3
Repair or installation. We pull pavers, excavate and re-grade if needed, install geotextile and compacted base, then re-lay Tremron units with matched color and proper jointing. On installs, we compact in lifts and check slope so water moves away from your foundation, not toward it.
- 4
Test, walkthrough, and warranty. We water-test the drainage, walk the full surface with you, and take photos of the finished job. Your written warranty starts on the completion date, and our 365-Day Done Right Promise stays with you for a full year.

AfterTremron Products We Service & Install in San Antonio
We work on the full Tremron lineup, with specific experience in these lines:
- Mega-Arbel, 55mm tumbled paver, the most common Tremron driveway unit in San Antonio. We re-level, re-sand, and extend Mega-Arbel driveways regularly.
- Bullnose, 60mm coping for pool decks and steps. We replace chipped or spalled Bullnose units and re-set loose coping.
- Grand Urbana, 80mm slab for patios and high-traffic areas. We install and re-sand Grand Urbana patios, including full ant-tunnel remediation.
- Holland Stone, 60mm rectangular paver for walkways and retaining walls. We match and install Holland Stone for repairs and new projects.
We stock common replacement units locally and can source any Tremron product from regional distributors, usually within a few days. If you’re adding onto an existing Tremron hardscape, we match existing color in full sun before ordering, which saves you the heartbreak of a new section that looks like a patch.
We Also Service These Brands
Tremron is a big part of what we do in San Antonio, including Tremron Construction in Selma, TX, but we’re not a single-brand shop. We also handle KraftMaid and Wellborn cabinetry, Cambria, Silestone, and Caesarstone countertops, and Kohler, Moen, Toto, and Grohe fixtures. Our specification-grade material partnerships mean you get vetted, professional-grade products in one place, with one written price and one warranty.
Tremron Construction Cost in San Antonio
Tremron paver work in San Antonio ranges widely depending on base condition, access, and whether you’re repairing or building new. These are the numbers we quote most often:
| Project | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| Paver Driveway Installation (Tremron Mega-Arbel, 800 sq ft) | $7,000 – $18,000 |
| Paver Patio Installation (Tremron Grand Urbana, 300 sq ft) | $3,500 – $11,000 |
| Tremron Paver Re-Leveling and Joint Re-Sanding (per 100 sq ft) | $800 – $2,500 |
Re-leveling costs less than new installation when the pavers themselves are sound, which is true on most settled driveways we see. If your base has been compromised by clay movement for years, replacement of the base section is usually cheaper long-term than repeated patching. We’ll tell you which applies to your property before you spend a dollar. Call (254) 269-5071 for a written quote.
FAQs – Tremron Construction Service in San Antonio

That’s efflorescence, and it’s common on Tremron pavers in San Antonio because our hard water wicks up through the sand bed and evaporates on the surface, leaving mineral deposits. It’s worse under shade where evaporation slows. It’s not structural, but it won’t wash off with water alone. We treat it with cleaners that remove the minerals without etching the paver surface, and we’ll tell you whether re-sanding will help prevent a recurrence. Call (254) 269-5071 if yours has started blooming.
Yes, with a caveat. A 15-year-old Mega-Arbel paver has been faded by San Antonio sun and stained by local hard water. We’ll pull a sample from your existing driveway, match it in full daylight, not under showroom lights, and order the closest production lot. The match will be within one shade, not invisible. That’s the honest answer for any Tremron install that’s seen a decade of Texas UV. We’ll show you the matched sample before we order. Estimates are free at (254) 269-5071.
No. If the top Bullnose edge is spalling but the unit below is sound, we replace the damaged coping units individually. We only pull and re-lay a larger section when the edge damage runs six linear feet or more, which indicates the bedding underneath has also shifted. Pool-chemical exposure and our frost cycles cause the chipping, not a defect in the paver. Get a written scope from us before you assume the worst: (254) 269-5071.
You remove the ants, then fix the sand joints that let them in. We treat the bedding layer to eliminate the colony, re-grade any soft spots they created, and install fresh polymeric sand at the correct temperature and moisture window. If the joints weren’t properly maintained, ants will always find their way back. We’ll show you what proper joint maintenance looks like on your specific patio.
If the pavers are intact and the settlement is localized, repair, re-grade the base under that section, re-lay the same units, and you’re done. If the settlement runs across most of the driveway or the base is contaminated with clay and organic material, replacement is usually cheaper over a 10-year horizon. We’ll measure the actual settlement and give you a written recommendation for both options so you can decide with real numbers. Call (254) 269-5071 and we’ll come look.
A new Tremron paver driveway in San Antonio typically runs $7,000 to $18,000 for an 800-square-foot Mega-Arbel install. Patios in Grand Urbana run $3,500 to $11,000 for about 300 square feet. Re-leveling and re-sanding an existing Tremron surface runs $800 to $2,500 per 100 square feet. Your price depends on base condition, access, and whether we’re reusing your existing units. The estimate is free and written, and the price doesn’t change once work starts. Call (254) 269-5071.
No. We’re an independent Tremron service provider and General Contractor in San Antonio. We are not a manufacturer-authorized dealer or installer. That said, we stock and source genuine Tremron units from regional distributors, and we’ve repaired and installed more Tremron hardscape in this climate than most authorized crews. Independence means we’ll tell you when a problem is a Tremron product issue versus a local base or installation issue, without a manufacturer’s script in the way.
For pavers, caps, and wall units, yes. We use genuine Tremron units because nothing else matches the color and texture you already have. For the components you don’t see, geogrid, edge restraints, fasteners, we use equal-quality commercial parts from Tensar and Snap Edge. Those carry the same or better specifications, and they’re what we’d use on our own projects.
