Why Use Concrete Pavers to enhance your home and backyard

There are a variety of patio designs and paving materials to choose from. Pavers allow for a lot of design creativity and can be used on small or large patios. However, the real draw of pavers is that they can be laid in many patterns. Another advantage of using pavers for patios is that they can be spot replaced, if necessary. You will not have to worry about huge cracks showing up later as with standard concrete patios. Also, if you want to add on to your patio at a later time, it’s easy to add matching pavers and create a seamless transition.

Pavers are not limited to just patios but driveways, parking areas, and sidewalks as well. If you want a sidewalk with greater curb appeal than the typical narrow, straight-sided walkway, concrete pavers give you the versatility to form walkways with gentle curved configurations and make them any width you desire. They also allow you to replicate the traditional look of a natural stone or brick walkway, but come in a wider array of colors and shapes. Retaining Walls may be a great idea as well for an update.

Why Use Concrete Pavers to enhance your home and backyard

Driveways or parking areas built with concrete pavers will give you a lifetime of beauty with limited maintenance. Concrete pavers are made to a higher standard for strength, pressure, and consistency than standard poured concrete slabs. What you lay concrete pavers on is as important as paver design or paver layout. It is crucial to have a well constructed base with the correct materials, compaction, drainage, and grade for your specific area.

Many questions people have about pavers are cost per square foot, maintenance, style, pattern, and thickness. It is not practical to give a price per square foot on most concrete paver projects. Paver cost in its self varies due to type, style, color, thickness, and availability. Soil type and amount of material needed to excavate and construct a solid base to hold the pavers. Access and location are other factors considered in build costs. Design and pattern of the project along with amount of cutting required will be all figured into the project costs.

Some concrete pavers are designed to be laid in a certain pattern while others pavers can be placed in a variety of patterns. The pattern will be limited to the application of the project. Popular patterns include 45 degree herringbone, 90 degree herringbone, running bond, stacked bond, T pattern, or random.

Paving Stone Quality & Craftsmanship - It Matters

Having a quality edge restraint is another key factor in keeping concrete pavers in place. There are a variety of options to achieve this from concrete, plastic, aluminum, or metal. Most edge restraints are hidden however the design may incorporate a visible restraint such as a concrete curb.

Putting together all of these factors will help you create a well constructed paver project to enjoy and appreciate for years.
