Concrete paving is a construction technique used to create a hard and durable surface. Like many other things, concrete paving was first created by the Romans, where it was used for sidewalks and roads. In fact, concrete paved roads are still found in some parts of the world today! Concrete pavers have the ability to resist being damaged from external forces such as that from heavy rain or from water freezing and thawing repeatedly.
More recently, concrete paving has become a popular choice for driveways and patios due to its attractive finish and durability. A properly poured driveway may last more than 20 years without needing any repairs! New technologies have allowed contractors to use less-expensive materials when creating these surfaces. Concrete paving is also relatively inexpensive compared to other options.
There are many different types of concrete paver systems available on the market today, each with their own unique characteristics and advantages to them. Many are also suitable for specific applications or surfaces. Some are more suited for commercial settings while others have specific uses in residential applications including patios, walkways, driveways, pool decks, etc.
Let’s look at some of these common types found throughout Houston area homes and businesses:
Standard pavers
These are large pre-casted rectangular blocks that resemble stone or brick pavers without the lines in between them. While they may not offer many variety when it comes to looks, they do excel in durability and strength. Standard pavers come in several textures and colors, with some types being more suited toward certain applications. Standard Pavers are used most often for commercial applications such as driveways and parking lots due to their durability and ease of use when building them.
Standard paver installation is also quite simple compared to other options like interlocking/clicking pavers or natural stone. They can simply be placed side by side with no need for additional materials or time needed to fill the gaps between units, although it may require more space since you will have a wider surface area. Even though standard pavers are relatively inexpensive, they are quite durable making them an ideal choice. If treated properly, standard paver driveways should last 10-20 years before needing to be replaced.
Interlocking pavers
These pavers are made of concrete and interlock together to form a level surface. They come in many different shapes, textures, and colors that can create incredibly unique designs or mimic the look of natural stones like limestone or granite. Interlocking pavers excel in creative freedom when creating a new design. They have been used around swimming pools, driveways, patios, walkways, and more. Some types of pavers also offer superior color consistency throughout each piece allowing for even coloring if desired. In addition to that, they will not fade from sun exposure over time making them ideal for exterior installations exposed to the elements such as pool decks and sidewalks. Best of all? Most interlocking paver systems are quick and easy to install.
Paving stones
These pavers are similar to interlocking or clicking pavers, but instead of locking together they sit side by side. Most paving stone units do not have gaps between them like standard paver units. This creates a smooth surface that can be an attractive choice for some applications. For example, it would work great as the flooring surface in your patio. However, it does have some limitations since you can’t create any complex designs with this type of system without additional materials such as sand joints , granite dust, etc. Paving stones come in many shapes, textures and colors just like interlocking pavers which makes it possible to something truly unique for your home or business.
Pressed concrete
This is a type of paving stone that is made by compressing small pieces of ‘paving stones’ together under a large amount of pressure using a huge hydraulic press, also known as “hot planing” the concrete. It produces smooth surfaces without any joints or seams. The resulting surface can be quite beautiful with a consistent color throughout and very little variation in shade from one piece to the next. In addition, pressed concrete does not require additional materials such as granite dust filling, making it an inexpensive option whereas other types do require those extra steps thus driving up cost.
Natural stone pavers
Probably one of the most elegant options available for outdoor patios and walkways are natural stone pavers. They come in a wide range of colors and textures to suit your style and taste. As for durability, they can last many decades if treated properly and installed by a professional. However, the downside is that natural stone pavers are very expensive so it is not an option most people can afford when building their outdoor living space due to the high cost involved with each piece.
Paving stones will add beauty to any area such as driveway or parking lot.
