Our expert team will guide you through the process of selecting the right materials for your project, ensuring your pavers for your patio, driveway, or fire pit perfectly complements your home.
Durability
Pavers resist cracking, shifting, and can withstand up to 8,000 pounds per square inch compared to concrete’s 2,500. This durability is ideal for driveway pavers and other high-traffic areas like patios and pools.
Customizable Designs
Unlike concrete, pavers allow you to choose from a variety of colors, shapes, and patterns, creating a look that is unique to your home or commercial space.
Lower Maintenance
Pavers are easy to clean and maintain and, should a paver ever be damaged, the repair is easier and less costly
Drainage
Pavers are designed to efficiently drain and displace water through their sand-filled joints, preventing water retention. Unlike concrete, which can absorb moisture and weaken over time, pavers allow water to permeate naturally, reducing the risk of cracking
Repairs
Unlike concrete, which often requires a full replacement when cracked, pavers are simple to repair. Damaged stones can be removed, the base adjusted, and reinstalled with minimal effort, restoring your surface without visible patchwork.
Why Choose Pavers Over Concrete?
Our Paver Installation Process
Our expert team will guide you through the process of selecting the right materials for your project, ensuring your pavers for your patio, driveway, or fire pit perfectly complements your home.
Consultation & Design
In your initial consultation, we’ll discuss exactly what you want and need from St. Augustine Pavers. We’ll take measurements of your driveway, patio, fire pit, or pool area and help you select the perfect paver style and layout for your aesthetic and functional needs. We will also assist with the HOA process to achieve a smooth approval for your paver project.
Site Preparation
Before installing the pavers, we start by excavating and preparing the base, adjusting depth based on soil conditions to prevent sinking or shifting. A Crushed Concrete Fine base is compacted to create a strong foundation, while proper grading and slope direct water away from the structures for optimal drainage. Next, we screed the bedding sand for a smooth, even surface before laying the pavers. Once in place, sand is swept into the joints and compacted, locking the pavers securely. Finally, a cement border reinforces the perimeter for a polished, long-lasting finish.
Final Walkthrough
Once the pavers have been installed, it’s time for you to see your new space. This reveal is always the most exciting part, and after thousands of commercial and residential paver projects, it never gets old.
Paver Sealing
Sealing your pavers enhances durability, protects against stains, and maintains color vibrancy, keeping your outdoor space looking its best with minimal maintenance.
Why Seal Your Pavers?
Paver sealing isn’t part of our installation process. We need to come back 60 days after installation to complete your paver sealing. Once sealed, your pavers will have added protection against the elements, ensuring long-term beauty and durability.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will pavers settle?
While there is always a small chance of the ground settling over time, our professional installation process minimizes the risk. We use a high-powered compactor to compact the professional grade paver base before installation and again after laying the pavers, ensuring a firm, stable surface that’s built to last.
Which pavers are the best?
The best paver depends on your style, budget, and specific lifestyle needs. We primarily use
concrete pavers due to their durability and versatility, but options like limestone, flagstone,
marble, and travertine each offer unique aesthetic benefits. We’ll help you choose the perfect fit
for your space.
What pavers should I use for a fire pit?
Concrete pavers are an excellent choice for a fire pit due to their durability, heat resistance, and low maintenance.
They withstand Florida’s weather conditions and regular use, making them a long-lasting, reliable option for your outdoor space.
Can pavers be installed on a slope?
Absolutely! We install paver blocking to level and reinforce the area, ensuring a secure, even
surface that blends seamlessly with your landscape.
Are pavers more expensive than concrete?
While pavers may have a slightly higher upfront cost than concrete, they offer far superior longevity, durability, and visual appeal. Unlike concrete, which is prone to cracking and costly repairs, pavers provide a long-term investment that enhances your home’s value and curb appeal.
Are pavers better than concrete?
Concrete is durable. However, one common problem is cracking. Elements like moisture and temperature often cause concrete to expand and contract, leading to cracking. This means that concrete is more likely to absorb water than displace it, which causes cracking. When your concrete cracks, you’ll want to repair it. Except, it isn’t easy to repair concrete without a band-aid approach. You typically have to start over and pour a fresh slab.
Should I seal my pavers?
While sealing isn’t required, we highly recommend it to enhance durability, protect against stains, and preserve color vibrancy. After a 60-90 day waiting period, sealing helps keep your pavers looking pristine with minimal maintenance. Learn more about the benefits of paver sealing here.
