5 Most Popular Paver Choices

Thrive Landscape Management is a Harvey, LA-based hardscaping firm. We have years of experience and a solid reputation for completing projects on time and within budget. The following are the five most common options for today's clients:

Concrete Pavers

Concrete pavers are an ideal material to use whether reconstructing or renovating your deck, paths, patio, or driveway. The use of interlocking pavers allows for the creation of stunning landscapes. These are aesthetically pleasing and immensely practical. They are highly durable, and sturdy compared to concrete slabs due to their great load-bearing capacity. Concrete pavers are interlocked individual robust components and allow for tremendous artistic expression. They do not fracture, and there is no possibility of deformation or cracking since they are not a monolithic installation.

Bricks Pavers

Brick pavers are made from kiln-cured clay. These are a popular option for commercial and residential structures due to their attractive appearance when exposed to the elements. Clay brick paver stones are naturally colored by combining various clays, which results in better color retention than concrete, particularly when exposed to high temperatures and bright lights. These materials are relatively strong regardless of the possibility of mild cracking over time. While damaged or fractured concrete sidewalks and driveways seem old and unappealing, brick pavers hold their attractiveness. They are less prone to erosion than concrete pavers and can easily endure for decades with careful upkeep.

Travertine Pavers

Travertine is a type of rockface material frequently used in constructing outdoor living areas such as patios, decking, outdoor kitchens, as well as pathways, sidewalks, and trails. It is a durable substance with high porosity that is also environmentally friendly. It allows for water seepage into the ground underneath, replenishing the groundwater. Travertine pavers are available in various hues like gold, walnut, and red. Due to the stone's porosity, its surface is cool, making it a good option for poolscapes. Cleaning these units is simple, and they will last for decades if properly cared for. The three categories of travertine pavers available are—regular, commercial, and superior, and you can select the appropriate one for the location.

Flagstone

Flagstone pavers are appealing and unusual since they are available in polished, thermal texturing, and natural clefts. Additionally, they are durable and can withstand exposure to the outdoors and wear and tear. We can create stunning outdoor area motifs and designs by using polished/textured paving stones. These units are suitable for pathways, driveways, walks, poolscapes, terraces, and decks due to their characteristics. This natural stone has exceptional tensile qualities and can last on stable ground for decades.

Porcelain Pavers

Since their introduction to the market only a few years ago, porcelain pavers have swiftly become the latest trend in outdoor living designs. The modern appearance, durability, stain resistance, and ability to replicate interior design schemes to create an indoor-outdoor flow appeal to homeowners. Porcelain pavers are durable, are available in various shapes and colors, and can be used in a variety of ways on patios, decks, and other outdoor spaces. Porcelain pavers can help you create a fantastic look in your garden or outdoor living.
