Beautify your outdoor living space with the addition of stone paving stones that are available in a vast array of colors, shapes and sizes. Pavers require very little to no maintenance which saves you money on staining, sealing and repairs. Paving stones are more durable than poured concrete and can easily handle the extreme temperatures of Florida without the risk of cracks. Repairs are easy if necessary as the damaged stone is simply removed and replaced.
Travertine is one of several natural stones that are used for paving patios and garden paths. It is also known as travertine limestone or travertine marble. The stone is characterized by pitted holes and troughs in its surface. Travertine can be polished to a smooth, shiny finish and comes in a variety of colors from gray to coral red.
Travertine is a great choice for Florida pool decks and patios because travertine doesn’t trap heat like concrete or regular stone does! Even in the middle of a hot Florida summer, you can walk along travertine stones without burning your feet.
Concrete pavers are an excellent choice for anyone looking for a wide range of colors for their landscaping project! Some of the benefits of concrete pavers are durable, they add instant value to your home, concrete pavers are affordable, they come in many shapes and colors. They can be used in pretty much any landscaping project! From driveways, to walkways, all the way to large patios.
While you might see a variety of pavers at your local store, they can be generally categorized by their material: concrete, natural stone, or brick. This might explain why you felt overwhelmed by design options – each category offers various styles. To simplify your choice, focus on the material composition of the pavers.
As the name suggests, brick pavers are thin bricks. They’re a popular choice due to their budget-friendly price and ease of installation. However, they may lack the visual appeal some homeowners desire for their patios and walkways. To enhance their look, you can apply a paver sealer for extended beauty. If you find brick pavers too plain, this eliminates them from your options, leaving you with concrete and natural stone pavers to consider.
Concrete pavers offer a great balance of functionality and aesthetics. Made from a blend of gravel, sand, cement, dye, and water, they come in two main types: interlocking and architectural slab.
Invented by the Dutch after World War II, interlocking pavers were a clever solution during a brick shortage.
For ultimate elegance and longevity, natural stone pavers are a top choice. They come in various materials like flagstone, slate, granite, and the increasingly popular travertine. Travertine’s rise in popularity is due to several factors:
While tumbled travertine offers excellent slip resistance, be aware that polished varieties can become slippery when wet. Consider a non-slip treatment for these types.
Thinking about upgrading your patio? Pavers are a great way to add beauty and functionality to your outdoor space. But with so many choices, selecting the right paver material can be overwhelming. This guide will explore the pros and cons of concrete and travertine pavers to help you decide.
The ideal paver material depends on your priorities and budget. Concrete pavers are a cost-effective solution with a wide range of design possibilities. Travertine offers a luxurious look, unmatched durability, and low maintenance requirements, but comes at a higher price. Consider your desired aesthetic, budget, and DIY capabilities before making your final decision.
