Tremron Construction in Pomona, CA | Sycamore Contractors
Sycamore Contractors provides independent Tremron sales and service across Pomona, from paver driveways and patios to retaining wall construction and repair. We’re not a Tremron dealer or a manufacturer affiliate. What we are is the crew that has torn out, installed, and rebuilt Tremron hardscapes across Pomona’s oldest neighborhoods long enough to know exactly how these pavers behave on this city’s expansive clay soils and pre-war foundations. For Tremron work in the 91766, 91767, 91768, and 91769 ZIP codes, call (877) 265-6284.
Why Pomona Residents Choose Us for Tremron Service
Most contractors in Pomona treat pavers as pavers. We don’t. We know the difference between a Tremron Old Towne paver and a knockoff, and we know how each one responds to Pomona’s hard water, Santa Ana winds, and the clay soil that shifts under half the driveways in Lincoln Park and Wilton Heights. Nate Calloway, our owner, grew up in Temecula and has spent his career learning which materials actually hold up in Southern California heat. That’s why we stock genuine Tremron pavers and wall blocks for color and dimensional matching, and why we use quality aftermarket polymeric sands and base aggregates only where Tremron doesn’t manufacture the component. Tremron sales & service is a core piece of what we do, but it only works because we understand how the product performs in Pomona specifically.

Common Tremron Construction Problems We Solve in Pomona
- Efflorescence and salt bloom on Tremron pavers. Pomona’s hard water, especially in older neighborhoods with aging irrigation systems, leaves mineral deposits on paver surfaces that show up as white streaks or hazy patches. This is a cosmetic issue most of the time, but the wrong cleaning method can damage the paver face. We use the correct neutral-pH cleaners and low-pressure washing so the paver keeps its color.
- Paver settlement over original 1920s concrete foundations. In Lincoln Park and Wilton Heights, many Tremron installations sit on top of the original concrete or brick base from a house built before 1950. That base was never designed for modern vehicular loads or pavers, and when it cracks, the pavers above shift and sink. We excavate to the depth needed and build a proper aggregate base before re-setting the pavers.
- Joint sand erosion and weed intrusion. Pomona’s expansive clay soils swell and shrink with moisture changes, which opens paver joints and lets water, sand, and weed seeds migrate. We see this constantly on Tremron Old Towne installations where the original base wasn’t engineered for clay movement. Our fix is not just fresh sand; it’s repairing the base so the joints stay tight.
- Cracking and spalling on Tremron retaining wall blocks. Hillside properties near the San Gabriel foothills deal with hydrostatic pressure behind retaining walls when drainage fails. Water pushes against the wall, freezes in rare cold snaps, and pops the face off Tremron Garden Wall blocks. We rebuild the drainage system, not just the wall face, so the repair lasts.
- Color mismatched repairs from previous contractors. We regularly arrive at Pomona homes where a previous patch added a slightly different color or texture of paver. Tremron runs change slightly over production years, so we source from the current production line and do a full-pallet color check before setting a single piece. The repair blends in, not just close enough.
Tremron Service in Pomona: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here is what matters most about Pomona: the pre-1950 housing stock in ZIP codes 91766 and 91767 means a huge share of Tremron paver driveways and patios here are being installed over original concrete or brick foundations that were never engineered for modern loads. That is not true in Murrieta or Temecula, where most homes date to the 1980s or later. In Pomona, a paver driveway project often starts with partial demolition of a cracked 1920s concrete slab, then a structural assessment of what’s underneath. Sometimes the old base sits on expansive clay that has shifted for a century. We have to excavate 10 to 12 inches, lay a compacted aggregate base, and then set the Tremron pavers. Skip that step and the pavers will telegraph every crack in the old slab within two summers. This is the single most important difference between a Tremron in La Verne installation and one done in a newer suburb. In Lincoln Park, we tore out a failing 1950s concrete driveway and installed a Tremron Old Towne paver driveway for a 1920s Spanish Colonial bungalow. The original slab sat on expansive clay that had cracked and settled, so we excavated 12 inches, added a compacted aggregate base, and set the pavers with polymeric joint sand. The homeowner now has a stable, period-appropriate driveway that handles Pomona’s hot summers without heaving. That job is exactly what we mean when we say we know how Tremron performs here.
Tremron Models & Products We Service in Pomona
We work with Tremron Old Towne pavers, Mega Olde Towne pavers, Plaza Series pavers, and Garden Wall retaining wall blocks. Old Towne is what we install most often in Pomona’s older neighborhoods because its tumbled finish fits the Craftsman and Spanish Colonial streetscapes near downtown. Mega Olde Towne works well for driveways where homeowners want a larger paver with a similar character. Plaza Series is our go-to for modern infill homes in the 91768 corridor, and Garden Wall is the block we specify for terraced hillside properties near the foothills. For parts, we source genuine Tremron pavers and wall blocks for Tremron repair in Montclair and nearby areas so the color and dimensional match is right. Where Tremron doesn’t manufacture the accompanying component, like polymeric joint sand or base aggregate, we use quality aftermarket products chosen for Pomona’s drainage and clay conditions. We will always recommend repair over replacement when a Tremron hardscape is structurally sound and the issue is limited to joint sand, efflorescence, or localized settling.

AfterTremron Service Pricing in Pomona
Pricing depends on site prep, and in Pomona, site prep usually means removing something old before we build something new. Here is where the numbers land:
| Service | Typical Price Range |
|---|---|
| Paver Driveway Installation | $7,000 – $18,000 |
| Paver Patio Installation | $3,500 – $11,000 |
| Concrete Driveway Installation | $4,500 – $12,000 |
What drives the cost in Pomona is what we find under the surface: an original 1920s concrete slab, clay soil that needs deeper excavation, or a drainage issue that has to be solved before pavers go down. A free estimate means we come out, look at the existing hardscape, check the base and drainage, and give you a written line-item quote before any work starts. No price changes once we start unless you change the scope. Call (877) 265-6284 to schedule yours.

FAQs – Tremron Construction in Pomona
Only when the existing concrete is structurally sound and properly sloped. In Pomona’s older neighborhoods, the concrete under a paver overlay is often a 1920s or 1950s slab that has cracked and settled, so overlaying pavers directly would transfer every crack to the surface. We inspect the base first. If it’s not sound, we remove it and build the proper aggregate base before setting Tremron pavers.
Those white stains are efflorescence, which is mineral salts migrating through the paver as water evaporates. Pomona’s hard water and irrigation runoff, especially in older neighborhoods with aging sprinkler systems, makes it more noticeable here. It’s usually a cosmetic issue, but the wrong cleaning approach can etch the paver face. We use a neutral-pH cleaning process that removes the salts without damaging the paver. If you’re seeing it on a newer installation, it typically fades on its own over time. Call (877) 265-6284 if you want us to take a look.
We excavate deeper than the typical contractor spec. Pomona’s clay expands when wet and contracts when dry, which is what causes pavers to heave and settle. We typically remove 10 to 12 inches of material, install a compacted aggregate base, and use a geotextile fabric where the clay is particularly reactive. That base is what keeps the pavers stable through wet winters and hot, dry summers.
Yes. Tremron’s production runs can vary slightly in color and texture over time, so we source from the current production line and do a full-pallet color check before setting any replacement pavers. This matters in Pomona, where many installations are 10 or 15 years old and the original color has faded. We can’t always match a faded 2009 paver perfectly, but we get close enough that the repair blends in from normal viewing distance.
A compacted aggregate base of 4 to 6 inches minimum for pedestrian patios, and 8 to 12 inches for driveways. In Pomona’s heat, the base needs to resist thermal movement, and it needs to drain well enough that winter rain doesn’t pool and erode the joint sand. We use a Class II road base compacted in lifts, then a bedding layer of coarse sand. The pavers set tight, and the polymeric joint sand locks the surface.
