Pavers FAQ's

Paver FAQ's, Louisville, KY Are pavers better or poured concrete?

Pavers offer greater flexibility in design with various shapes, colors, and patterns. They also allow for more straightforward repairs or replacements of individual pavers. Additionally, pavers generally drain better than poured concrete, minimizing puddles.

What is the difference between a patio and a paver installation?

Are natural stone pavers a good material for my driveway?

Natural stone is the most expensive option among these three materials. It can also be more challenging to install due to variations in size and shape. However, the unmatched beauty and longevity often outweigh these factors.
