In many ways, Tennessee feels like it is the heart of the South.
Johnson City has been growing and developing one of the most unique and exciting communities in the Southeast for years. The area is known for its natural beauty surrounded by the Appalachian Mountains and numerous rivers and lakes.
A little-known fact about Johnson City is that the JCCT (Johnson City Community Theatre) is the theatre with the most continuous production runs in the whole state of Tennessee since its establishment in 1885. The Johnson City Community Theatre was a traveling show until the year 1956, when JCCT laid roots at the previous Temple Baptist Church.

Very little maintenance. Perhaps once every five to ten years (depending on rainfall in your area) replace the fine gravel that rests in the cracks between each paver. This will keep the paver system in top notch condition and will continue to allow it to transfer water through the system rapidly.
Anywhere! We have customers who request permeable paver surfaces for driveways, sidewalks, parking lots, patios, decks, porches, garden paths, etc.
Permeable pavers have the added feature of diverting water through the paved surface and into the ground beneath, just as nature intended. No more costly purchases directed towards addressing water runoff on your property, no more rain gardens, water retention ponds, or hazardous water pooling and flooding. When rain strikes a permeable paver surface, the water goes through it. It does not run off of it
Not at all. Permeable pavers are made in an interlocking manner. Much like a spider’s web, there is an intertwinement factor in a permeable paving system, with each paver being interconnected to the ones next to it. This allows for a degree of flex within the system, preventing cracking, crumbling, and other damage even under very heavy loads.
Essentially forever. A permeable paver system is extremely durable. When a permeable paver patio, driveway, parking lot, outdoor dining area, or walking path is installed with skill, expert design, and when quality materials are used, a permeable paver system will likely outlast its owner.
