Tremron Construction in Fontana, CA | Sycamore Contractors
We provide independent Tremron paver and hardscape construction service across Fontana, from the 1960s tract homes west of Sierra Avenue to the newer subdivisions on the east side, with Tremron service in Bloomington also available nearby. What makes our Tremron work different here comes down to base preparation: much of Fontana’s older housing sits on expansive clay that moves with the seasons, and a paver driveway or patio installed without accounting for that will settle, rut, and fail within a few years. We’re Sycamore Contractors, led by Nate Calloway, and we’ve been repairing and rebuilding Tremron hardscape across the Inland Empire long enough to know exactly what that clay does to a poorly compacted base. Call us at (877) 265-6284 for a straight answer and a free estimate.
Why Fontana Residents Choose Us for Tremron Service
We’re not a Tremron dealer, and we’re not going to pretend otherwise. What we are is a general contracting crew that has installed and repaired Tremron pavers and wall units across Fontana’s older and newer housing stock for years, so we know which Tremron lines hold up under Inland Empire heat and which ones need specific base and drainage work to survive it. Nate Calloway grew up in Temecula’s Redhawk neighborhood, trained in Palomar College’s construction technology program, and spent roughly two decades running crews across Southwest Riverside County and providing Rialto Tremron service before taking the lead at Sycamore. He’s the guy homeowners call when they want to know whether a settling paver driveway needs a full rebuild or a localized lift-and-reset, and he’ll give you the same answer either way: whatever the job actually needs, not what’s easiest to bill.
We keep genuine Tremron pavers and wall units on order for Fontana jobs so repairs match existing color and dimension. We also stock quality polymeric joint sand and base aggregate rated for expansive soil conditions, because that’s the part of the job you can’t see that determines whether the part you can see stays flat. Do it right the first time, or you’ll do it twice in the July heat.

Common Tremron Construction Problems We Solve in Fontana
- Paver settlement and rutting on expansive clay. West-side Fontana lots in ZIPs like 92335 and 92334 sit on clay that swells when wet and shrinks when dry. If the original driveway or patio base was never excavated to a proper depth or compacted, the pavers start to sink within a few seasons. We rebuild the base the right way before any pavers go back down.
- Efflorescence and salt bloom. Fontana’s hard water leaves mineral deposits behind when irrigation overspray lands on Tremron pavers and evaporates. That white, chalky film isn’t a product defect, but it looks like one. We clean it properly and adjust the irrigation line so it stops overshooting the hardscape.
- Faded, chalky paver surfaces from sun and Santa Ana wind. Tremron pavers hold color reasonably well, but years of unrelenting UV exposure plus wind-driven dust abrasion during Santa Ana events will dull even good color. We can assess whether the surface just needs a deep clean and a quality sealer or whether a section should be replaced.
- Edge spalling and joint sand loss on driveway aprons. Vehicle loads grind on paver edges, and Fontana’s winter flash-flood risk from the Cajon Pass and foothills means water can rush across a driveway and wash joint sand out of the edges. We repair spalled units and re-sand joints with polymeric material that actually stays put through a wet season.
- Retaining wall units shifting at the base. Tremron Weston Stone and Mega Oldenburg wall systems are solid, but only if they’re built with proper drainage behind the wall and a level base course. In Fontana’s clay, a wall that wasn’t backfilled with clean drainage aggregate will lean and develop bulges. We rebuild the wall with the drainage and base work the manufacturer specifies so it stays straight.
Tremron Service in Fontana: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the thing about Fontana that most hardscape contractors from outside the area don’t fully appreciate: much of the post-war housing west of Sierra Avenue was built on expansive clay soils and was never bolted or braced, let alone built with a hardscape base that accounts for soil movement. That means a paver driveway or patio installed in the 1970s is often sitting on a few inches of sand over raw clay, and the clay has been heaving and settling for forty or fifty years. When we pull those pavers, the subgrade underneath is usually a mess. In a neighboring city with more stable native soil, a simple base refresh might be fine. On Sierra Avenue jobs in the 92335 ZIP, we routinely excavate deeper, install a stabilized aggregate base, and grade for drainage fall away from the garage, because anything less just feeds the same failure cycle. This is the reason our Fontana service area work always starts with a look at what’s under the pavers, not just what’s on top.
That plays out on real jobs all the time. On a 1960s tract lot off Sierra Avenue, our crew pulled a heaved Tremron Olde Towne paver driveway that had settled over unamended expansive clay. We excavated to a proper depth, re-compacted a stabilized base with drainage fall away from the garage, and reset the original pavers with fresh polymeric joint sand. The driveway now sheds winter runoff from the Cajon Pass storms instead of ponding at the slab.
Tremron Models & Products We Service in Fontana
We work with the Tremron lines most commonly used in Fontana hardscape projects: Olde Towne pavers, Capri pavers, Weston Stone retaining walls, and Mega Oldenburg pavers for heavier load applications like driveway aprons. For repairs, we use genuine Tremron pavers and wall units so the new material matches the existing color and dimension. Where a paver style has been discontinued or a batch color has shifted over the years, we’ll tell you honestly whether a localized repair will blend acceptably or whether a section should be lifted and reset. Our Tremron sales & service experience means we already know which products are still in production and available locally, so we don’t waste a week calling around for a paver that hasn’t been made in three years.

FAQs – Tremron Construction in Fontana
Yes. West-side Fontana lots in ZIPs 92335 and 92334 sit on expansive clay that moves enough to ruin a shallow paver base, so we excavate deeper, install a stabilized aggregate base, and grade for positive drainage. A standard sand-set base that works fine on stable soil will settle within a few wet seasons out here. Call (877) 265-6284 and we’ll tell you what your specific lot needs after we look at it.
That’s efflorescence, and in Fontana it usually comes from irrigation overspray landing on the pavers and evaporating in our dry heat, leaving mineral deposits from the hard water behind. It’s not a paver defect and it can be cleaned, but the real fix is adjusting the irrigation so the spray doesn’t hit the hardscape. We handle both the cleaning and the irrigation adjustment as part of a standard repair call.
In most cases, yes. We use genuine Tremron pavers and wall units for repairs so the new material matches existing color and dimension, and we’ll pull from salvage stock when we can to improve the match on older installations. If the original batch color has drifted too far or the paver is discontinued, we’ll say so before we start and show you what the best available match looks like. Call (877) 265-6284 for an exact quote.
Fontana’s summer heat accelerates surface drying and can cause joint sand to break down faster, while Santa Ana wind events blow fine dust and grit across paver surfaces and act like slow abrasion on the face of the units. The result is faded color and joint loss that shows up sooner here than in coastal cities. We address it with quality polymeric joint sand, proper sealer choice, and honest advice about what will actually hold up in this climate.
No. Sycamore Contractors is an independent general contractor we install and repair Tremron products, but we are not authorized, sponsored, or partnered with Tremron. That means we’re free to tell you when a different paver or wall system would serve you better in Fontana’s conditions, and also free to tell you when Tremron is exactly the right call, which it often is.
