Why do paver patios fail faster in Topeka than in warmer states?
Kansas freeze-thaw cycling and expansive clay soil both push against a paver base repeatedly through the winter and spring. A shallow or poorly compacted base moves with the ground, and the pavers follow it. A base built to local frost depth and drained correctly is what actually prevents the shifting.

It depends on soil and drainage, but a properly compacted aggregate base is typically deeper here than in a mild climate to account for freeze-thaw movement. We evaluate your specific soil and grade before quoting a base depth rather than using a one-size number.
