Shopping Tips: How to Choose the Right Pavers
What to Look For:
- Quality material with a smooth, even surface.
- Color that complements your home’s exterior.
- Thickness suited for your project (thicker for driveways, standard for patios/walkways).
Common Mistakes to Avoid:
- Skimping on base preparation (a weak base leads to uneven surfaces over time).
- Choosing the wrong size for your space (large pavers work well in open areas, while smaller ones fit tighter spaces).
- Forgetting edge restraints (these prevent shifting over time).
