What Is A Pave Stone?

    Pave stone (also known as interlocking concrete pavers or just  "pavers") are a high density concrete product many times stronger than concrete slab.  Available in dozens of shapes and colors,pave stone offers an unmatched variety of design options suited to most every taste and budget. 

What Makes Pavers Last So Long?

    In addition to their basic strength - 3 to 4 times stronger than regular or stamped concrete - interlocking pavers have the unique ability to transfer loads and stresses over large areas by means of a "bridging" action between the individual units. Spreading of the load allows heavier weights and traffic over areas which normally would require concrete that is heavily reinforced with steel.

Can Pave Stone Be Installed On Top Of An Existing Hardscape?

    Yes and No.  It is possible to install pavers over existing concrete or asphalt.  However, due to the thickness of the pavers, removal of the existing surface is often required to create or maintain slope for drainage.  It is important to remember that proper drainage is at the heart of every good paver installation.

Can You Create Curves And Unique Shapes In Pave Stones?

     Absolutely!  Brothers Pave Stone welcomes the opportunity to create unique designs in pavers. From the most complex curved steps to intricate "one of a kind" patterns.  If you've been told that your design can't be built let us prove them wrong.  Remember our motto "Craftsmanship Second To None".  

Is A Building Permit Required For Pave Stone Installation?

     No.  Permits are almost never required for pave stone installation.  In the rare instance that a permit is required we, as licensed contractors, will happily work with you to handle all of the details.

Does Brothers Pave Stone Do More Than Just Pavers?

     Brothers focuses on projects that are designed around concrete paver patios, driveways, walkways and pool decks.  As a part of integrated paver designs we can also provide walls, steps, columns and drains. We are also experienced at coordinating with other trades - landscapers, electricians etc - to ensure the smooth completion of more involved designs.

When Can I Start To Use My New Interlocking Concrete Paving?

     You can start to enjoy your new pavers right away!  Unlike concrete which often needs to cure for weeks before it can be safely used, pavers are ready to go the day they're installed.  Even driveways and pool decks can be used immediately after final compaction and cleanup without fear of damage.

Are Pavers Easy To Maintain?

     Yes they are!  Wash them down, blow them off, sweep them or pressure wash them just as you would any other paving.  If you want added protection a sealer can be applied that will help repel stains, enhance the stones' color and stabilize the sand between the pavers.
