Myths Revealed

"Pavers are too costly."

The cost to install decor pavers and stones are similar in cost to stamped concrete (when professionally installed). When installed by yourself, the cost drops dramatically!  Additionally, landscaping, unlike drapes and other expensive interior additions, can add an average of 15% to your home’s value in curb appeal alone. decor pavers and stones are easy to install, easy to remove for repairing, and add a valuable unique look to your home.

"Pavers won’t last."

The life expectancy of decor pavers and stones is approximately 40 years with little to NO maintenance if installed correctly.

"Pavers will become uneven."

If a base is installed properly the first time, it is unusual for it to shift much over the lifetime of the pavers.

In the event that some shifting does occur, pavers can be easily repaired since they are set in a mortar-less system.

"Pavers complicate snow removal."

Pavers can be cleared of snow with a regular plow or snow blade as the surface will be even. decor pavers and stones have salt tolerances that make them hold up better than concrete. Snow will melt faster because it can breathe through the joints of the pavers. Water will also drain down so it will be less likely to be slick.

"We have too much freeze and thaw here."

Pavers are actually suited much better than concrete in freeze and thaw since they are flexible like asphalt. In Canada and many European countries that have a similar climate they use little to no concrete since it will crack in freeze thaw climates.

"Pavers allow weeds between the spaces."

Polymeric sand, which takes the place of regular sand has glue in the mix and will not allow weeds, insects or wash-out of sand from between the joints.

"Pavers are difficult to repair."

Pavers and Stones can easily be removed one at a time and replaced with a new stone or paver. Patterns are usually very easy to follow. It is actually much simpler to repair pavers and stones than it is concrete since it is a mortar-less system.
