Paver Materials Introduction

When it comes to deciding which type of paver material to use for your project, it can often be a difficult choice to make. Not only is it a difficult choice, but it is also an important one, for the type of paver material that you use will determine the overall look and feel of your hardscape site.

Different Paver Patterns

What makes the decision so difficult is that there are so many varieties of paver materials available on the market (the above representing a tiny fraction of the choices available). There are clay brick pavers, concrete, natural stone, slate and permeable paver materials.

As a starting point, it is important to consider that there are some paver materials suitable for certain applications, and not for others. For example, the pavers suitable for a patio may not be durable enough for a high traffic driveway.
