Belgard Construction in Los Serranos, CA | Polaris Contractors
We’re Polaris Contractors, and we provide independent Belgard hardscape service across Los Serranos – paver patios, driveways, retaining walls, and full outdoor living builds. The one thing that makes our Belgard work here different is that we know this old ranch settlement has hillside lots and state-park boundary buffers that flat-lot installers in Chino or Ontario never contend with. We source genuine Belgard units and components directly, but we’re an independent installer, not authorized by Belgard. Call (855) 473-6535 for a free estimate.
Why Los Serranos Residents Choose Us for Belgard Service
Belgard makes good hardscape products, but they only perform as well as the ground underneath them. In Los Serranos, that ground is often sloped, drainage-burdened, and up against review scrutiny near the Chino Hills State Park boundary. We’ve built Belgard paver driveways and retaining walls on the hillside streets here long enough to know what fails first when water moves fast and soil shifts. Our owner, Rick Sondermann, spent years building and renovating homes along the Newport Beach coastline before bringing that same sequencing discipline inland, and he’s had crews re-set more hillside pavers than most contractors will ever touch. We use genuine Belgard units, caps, and geogrid so every wall and paver system keeps its engineered profile. One team handles the whole scope – from excavation and subgrade work to the final paver edge – so you’re not juggling three different subs.

Common Belgard Construction Problems We Solve in Los Serranos
- Erosion under wall footings: Where Belgard retaining walls sit on hillside lots, winter runoff scours the base before the first rain if drainage isn’t right. We rebuild footings and add sediment basins before the wall fails structurally.
- Clogged drainage behind walls: Silt off steep Los Serranos grades fills swales and basins behind Belgard walls fast. Hydrostatic pressure builds, and block faces start to shift or bulge. We clear, re-grade, and re-set before the wall needs full replacement.
- Efflorescence and salt bloom: Hot inland summers followed by wet winter cycles plus Santa Ana dust loading leaves white mineral deposits on Belgard paver and wall faces. We clean and seal where the surface is sound, and we tell you when it’s cosmetic vs. structural.
- Settlement and joint separation: Hillside paver installations where the subgrade wasn’t engineered for the grade change settle unevenly, opening joints and creating trip hazards. We pull, re-compact, and re-lay with proper base depth.
- Driveway edge failure: Paver driveways on Los Serranos slopes lose edge restraint when water undercuts the perimeter. We install deeper edge stabilization and proper drainage channels so the driveway holds its line.
Belgard Service in Los Serranos: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Work
Because Los Serranos lots back up to the Chino Hills State Park boundary and the Carbon Canyon corridor, Belgard retaining-wall and paver work here is scoped around open-space buffers and grading review that flat-lot installs in Chino or Ontario never see. Crews working the Los Serranos hillside edges know that winter storms send runoff downslope fast, so sediment basins, silt fencing, and drainage swales get checked before the first rain – and that the state park boundary nearby draws extra scrutiny on grading and vegetation clearing. On a hillside lot off the Los Serranos core, our crew re-set a Belgard Urbana Stone paver driveway and rebuilt the footing and drainage behind a Belgard retaining wall that had bulged from storm runoff off the grade above. We added a sediment basin and silt fencing checked before the first winter rain, then re-capped the wall with matching Belgard units so the system met the review scrutiny near the state park boundary. If you’re planning Belgard work on a sloped Los Serranos lot, plan for drainage first. It’s not optional here.
Belgard Models & Products We Service in Los Serranos
We install and repair the Belgard lines that hold up best on Los Serranos hillsides and patios: Urbana Stone and Aqualine slab pavers for driveways and walks, Mirage and Bergerac modular retaining wall blocks for sloped lots, and Weston Stone and Catalina Grana wall systems with matching cap and coping. On older existing walls, we repair or re-cap with matching Belgard product rather than swapping in off-brand faces. When block faces are sound, we rebuild footing and drainage and reuse them. When a wall has failed structurally on a hillside lot, we tell owners to replace rather than patch. We stock genuine Belgard units and geogrid locally for faster Los Serranos turnaround.

A patio typically runs 2 – 4 days, a driveway 3 – 6 days, and a hillside retaining wall 1 – 2 weeks depending on drainage and grading requirements. Pomona Belgard service timelines differ, but Los Serranos sites near the state park boundary can add review time, so we build that into the schedule up front.
We install and repair Urbana Stone and Aqualine slab pavers, Mirage and Bergerac modular retaining wall blocks, and Weston Stone and Catalina Grana wall systems with matching cap and coping, plus Belgard Series units. If it’s a Belgard hardscape line, we likely work with it.
