PAVERS

When it comes to home improvement projects, there are few things that can make as big of an impact as a new patio or walkway. Not only do pavers add visual interest and curb appeal to your property, but they can also increase your home’s value. If you’re thinking about adding pavers to your home, read on to learn everything you need to know about this popular home improvement option.

What Are Pavers?

Pavers are individual units that are used to create a paved surface. The most common paving materials are concrete, stone, or brick. Pavers are usually less than six inches thick and are installed on a bed of sand, gravel, or mortar.

Concrete pavers are made of a moldable mixture of Portland cement, fine aggregate (sand), and coarse aggregate (gravel). Color pigments can be added to the mixture to produce various colors and shades. Stone pavers are made of natural stone, such as granite, limestone, or bluestone. Brick pavers are made of fired clay.

Types of Pavers

There are two main types of pavers: concrete and natural stone. Concrete pavers are typically less expensive than natural stone pavers and are available in a wide variety of colors, shapes, and sizes. Natural stone pavers are more expensive than concrete pavers but are also more durable and have a more luxurious look and feel. Some popular types of natural stone pavers include flagstone, slate, and travertine.

Paver Styles

In addition to different materials, pavers also come in a variety of styles. Some popular paver styles include:
Brick Pavers: Brick pavers are rectangular in shape and are often used for traditional-style patios and walkways.
Slab Pavers: Slab pavers are large, rectangular pavers that can be used for both patios and driveways.
Flagstone Pavers: Flagstone pavers are irregular in shape and size and have a natural look that is perfect for rustic-style patios and gardens.
Cobblestone Pavers: Cobblestone pavers have a classic look that is often used for driveways, walkways, and paved roads.

The Benefits of Pavers

There are many benefits that come with choosing pavers for your patio or walkway. First of all, pavers add value to your home. A well-designed and installed paver patio or walkway can increase your home’s resale value by up to 12%. Secondly, pavers are durable and long-lasting. When properly installed and maintained, pavers can last for decades.

Another benefit of pavers is that they come in a wide variety of colors, shapes, sizes, and textures. This allows you to get creative with your design and create a one-of-a-kind look for your home. Finally, pavers are low maintenance and easy to repair. If a paver becomes cracked or damaged, it can simply be removed and replaced without affecting the rest of the pavement.

Choosing the Right Pavers for Your Project

Now that you know the basics about pavers, it’s time to start planning your project. When choosing the right pavers for your project, there are several things you’ll need to keep in mind, including a budget, design style, durability, and maintenance. Once you’ve taken all of these factors into consideration, you’ll be able to choose the perfect pavers for your project.
