Pavers are pre-formed concrete tiles made to simulate cobblestone, tile, brick, or even chiseled stone. The use of concrete pavers in both patios and pathways has been gaining in popularity over the years. Historically, the use of clay / brick pavers in landscaping had been more popular. But pavers have evolved and now instead of using brick pavers, interlocking concrete pavers are preferred in modern landscapes. This is due to their increased strength & durability.

The main advantage to pavers vs. traditional concrete is they do not crack and last much longer. Depending on the variety you chose, they can be very easy to place furniture on and for kids to play on. Pavers should also be very stable. Some central Pennsylvania paver companies will not take enough time to set the base properly. Youve probably seen paver patios where settling has occurred, making the patio look less than desirable. But if installed properly, pavers actually have more compressive strength than concrete and should never settle, sag or move for as long as you own your home.

At Gilliland Landscape, we are ICPI certified paver installers and take the time to do it right so you will be able to enjoy a stable patio for a very long time. And then we back our work with our industry-leading 5-year warranty. Your new paver patio will look great and be built to last.

Paver Driveways Theres no better look for a driveway than concrete pavers. You can create more instant curb appeal with a paver driveway than almost any other upgrade you could do in your landscape. It turns your driveway from normal to a look of craftsmanship and distinguished quality. Paver driveways are stronger than concrete; 2-3 times stronger in compressive strength and weight bearing capacity than normal concrete. If you question if pavers can hold up to vehicular traffic, read the articles about the use of pavers in the Port of Baltimore and Port of Oakland.

Paver Pathways / Walkways Pavers also make the best pathways. Compared to other options for pathways (concrete, gravel, flagstone), concrete pavers often make the best choice because of their uniform surface, their unique look, and their durability.
