Family Owned. Fourth Generation. Owners On Site.

Why customers pick South State
Ask our customers and you hear the same four things: the customer service, the workmanship, that we are family owned and operated, and that the owners are actually on site.
The biggest hesitation anyone has before hiring a paver is trust. You are spending real money on something you cannot inspect. Once the asphalt is down, nobody can see the base. So we earn that trust the only way it can be earned. We build a relationship, we show you every detail, and we explain every step of the job before it starts.
When you call (410) 212-8084, George answers. Day or night. That is not a call center promise. It is how a family business works.




A driveway fails from the bottom up. So that is where we start.
Excavation, stone base, grading, compaction. George's words: “The preparation is key.” It is the part you never see again once the asphalt is down.
The other half of George's rule. When you compare bids, ask for the thickness in writing: the National Asphalt Pavement Association says a professional bid should include it.
Hiring a paver takes trust, and trust gets earned. We walk the property with you, show you what we see, and explain each step of the job before any work starts.
South State is family owned and operated, and the owners are on site on jobs.
