Permeable Surfaces in Ottawa
Permeable Surfaces: The Sustainable Solution for Modern Living
At Canadian Pro Home Improvements, we are proud to offer permeable surfaces at Ottawa, a forward-thinking solution designed to manage water runoff, reduce environmental impact, and improve the sustainability of your outdoor spaces. Permeable surfaces have become an increasingly popular choice for driveways, patios, walkways, and parking areas, offering both functional and aesthetic benefits. But the story of permeable surfaces goes beyond their practical applications—it’s a story rooted in the need to harmonize urban development with nature.
The concept of permeable surfaces dates back to ancient times when early civilizations used gravel and sand to create roads that managed water flow. In recent decades, with growing environmental concerns, modern permeable surfaces have re-emerged as a key solution to urban water management, offering both functionality and sustainability.
We proudly serve the Ottawa areas including :

What Are Permeable Surfaces?
Permeable surfaces are paving solutions that allow rainwater to filter through the material instead of running off. Using materials like porous asphalt, permeable pavers, and reinforced grids, these surfaces mimic natural processes, helping to manage stormwater and reduce strain on local drainage systems.
Our Permeable Surface Solutions
At Canadian Home Improvements, we offer a variety of permeable surface options to suit your specific needs:
- Permeable Pavers: These pavers interlock to create a durable surface with gaps that allow water to filter through to the soil below.
- Porous Asphalt: Ideal for driveways and parking lots, porous asphalt offers the strength of traditional asphalt while allowing rainwater to permeate the surface.
- Reinforced Grass & Gravel Grids: Perfect for natural-looking spaces, these grids reinforce grass or gravel surfaces, providing stability while maintaining permeability.
Whether you’re looking to upgrade your driveway or install a permeable patio, we have the expertise and materials to bring your vision to life—sustainably.

Let us help you design outdoor spaces that are beautiful, functional, and environmentally conscious.
