Unilock Construction in North Las Vegas, NV | Steel Horse Construction
We provide independent Unilock installation and repair across North Las Vegas as a full-scope general contractor. The one thing that separates our Unilock work here from anywhere else in the valley: we plan every paver around raw caliche, freshly graded lots, and monsoon sheet flow before the first unit touches dirt. Call (877) 265-5715 for a free estimate on paver driveways, patios, and retaining walls in North Las Vegas.
Why North Las Vegas Residents Choose Us for Unilock Service
We don’t sell Unilock because a distributor told us to. We spec it because it holds up when it’s set right. Russ Dillard, our owner, learned the trade on valley jobs where the difference between a paver job that lasts ten years and one that fails in two comes down to what’s underneath it. That’s the work most crews skip. We don’t.
Our crews work Unilock sales & service on new-build lots across the 89084 and 89031 corridors every month. We know how Brussels Block behaves on compacted caliche. We know what Beacon Hill wall block does when monsoon water runs behind it. And we stock matching units and color-matched polymeric sand locally so North Las Vegas repairs don’t wait on freight from the Midwest. You get one contractor for base, drainage, pavers, and walls, one point of accountability, and no finger-pointing when something shifts.

Common Unilock Construction Problems We Solve in North Las Vegas
- Efflorescence bloom on new pavers and wall block. Freshly graded desert lots in North Las Vegas sit over caliche that doesn’t drain. Moisture wicks up through slab-on-grade bases, carries salts through the concrete, and leaves that white chalky film on Unilock units. We fix the drainage and grade, not just the surface.
- Polymeric sand washout after monsoon flash floods. When sheet flow crosses a driveway or patio with no positive fall, the sand between joints goes with it. Then pavers shift. We see this every July and August in master-planned subdivisions where builders graded the lot flat and called it done.
- Color fade and surface dusting on sun-exposed pavers. North Las Vegas sees 110°F days and relentless UV. Wind-driven dust abrades the sealer and face of the paver. Older Unilock runs lose their color unevenly. We clean, re-seal, and when needed, replace units with matching stock.
- Spalling and chipping at the border course. Tumbled edges look great until an RV or work truck rolls over an underbuilt edge. We reset border courses with proper compacted base and edge restraint so the load transfers down, not sideways into the paver face.
- Retaining wall block shifting or leaning. Pisa2 and U-Cara walls fail when the base isn’t dug to stable soil or drainage stone is skipped behind the block. On North Las Vegas lots with expansive soil, that failure shows up within two or three seasons.
Unilock Service in North Las Vegas: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Hardscape
In the 89084, 89085, and 89081 master-planned corridor, the homes are so new and the grade so freshly cut that the real hardscape problem is off-site and subgrade. The issue isn’t the paver. It’s what’s under it and where the water goes. Builders push utilities into unincorporated-feeling edges of the valley and leave stubs high on the lot. Expansive desert soil heaves with moisture. Caliche doesn’t drain. So a paver driveway that should last decades starts rocking, blooming, or washing out in a season. Before we lay a single Unilock in Sunrise Manor or anywhere in North Las Vegas, we probe the subgrade, check the utility stubs, and re-grade for positive fall. That’s not a sales pitch. That’s the difference between a hardscape that outlasts the house and one you’re calling us about in eighteen months.
Unilock Models & Products We Service in North Las Vegas
We install and repair the full Unilock dimensional range: Brussels Block for driveways and patios, Beacon Hill for retaining and garden walls, Onyx and Il Campo for large-format slab-style runs, and Pisa2 and U-Cara for segmental and panel retaining wall systems. For Unilock repair in Nellis Air Force Base and throughout the valley, we use Unilock’s own matching units, caps, and color-matched polymeric sand so courses and tones line up with what’s already in the ground. We’re honest about when a section can be re-sanded and re-graded versus when the base has failed and the units need to come up. And we spec base and drainage to North Las Vegas soil conditions, not a generic chart in a catalog.

Lots with expansive soil, high utility stubs, or no positive grade need more base work before the first unit goes down.

FAQs – Unilock Construction in North Las Vegas
We match the existing Unilock units and color tone as closely as the product line allows, using the same manufacturing run where we can source it and blending new units with existing where a perfect batch match isn’t available. Sun exposure fades pavers over time, so a repaired section may look slightly different for the first season before it settles in. If you want the repair to disappear, we recommend we re-grade and re-sand the whole affected area, not just the failed patch. Call (877) 265-5715 and we’ll tell you straight what’s realistic on your property.
We’re an independent hardscape contractor. We install and service Unilock products because we believe they’re the right product for many North Las Vegas jobs, not because we’re tied to a dealer agreement. That means honest material recommendations based on your site conditions and budget.
We use Unilock’s own matching units, caps, and color-matched polymeric sand for repair work. Aftermarket or generic substitutes never match the color, texture, or dimensional tolerances, and they fail faster. We don’t cut that corner.
Most repair jobs, including border resets and joint re-sanding, finish in one to two days once materials are pulled. Full driveways and patios run three to seven days depending on base conditions and square footage. We’ll give you a schedule in the estimate, and we hold to it.
We install and repair Brussels Block, Beacon Hill, Onyx, Il Campo, Pisa2, and U-Cara. If your paver or wall came from a Unilock line that’s been discontinued, we’ll source the nearest matching unit or tell you if the section needs a full redesign. Call (877) 265-5715 and describe what you’re looking at, we’ll tell you what’s possible.
