A Patio That Is Constructed Of Interlocking Pavers
by Tiffany Gonzales
Interlocking patio pavers can withstand excessive wear and tear. This type of paver uses a sand joint filling that will prevent breakage.
Interlocking Paver Designs
Custom pavers can be used to replicate a basket weave, herringbone, or cobblestone pattern. They can also be used to create symmetrical designs. Interlocking pavers come in many sizes. Various paver textures and colors can be used to accent your property.
Paver products can be designed to mimic the roofing style or siding style that is on your home. If you would like your new patio to correspond with the style of your home, your landscaping contractor can color-match the new patio pavers with the characteristics of your home that you would like to complement.
Interlocking Paver Products
Individual pavers that are added to residential property are prone to breakage. Thin paver products that consist of a single layer may crack if too much weight is applied to them. The shifting of the earth that is underneath a paver can also contribute to breakage.
Interlocking paver products that contain multiple layers offer superior protection. Interlocking pavers contain a support beam, an aggregate base layer, and a geothermal fabric layer. These materials provide plenty of support. A landscaping contractor will typically add sand between adjacent pavers. The sand will act as a buffer, protecting each paver from breakage.
The Patio Construction Project
Residential patios that are constructed of interlocking pavers will last for many years. A patio that uses custom products can greatly improve the value of your property.
A landscaping contractor will help you plan the construction of your new patio. A landscaping contractor will measure the property where you would like to have a new patio installed. They will assess the drainage properties of the land. They will determine what type of grading processes will need to be conducted at the onset of the patio construction project.
Costs And Additional Features
The type of custom paver products that you can choose from may vary in price. A landscaping contractor may charge an installation fee that is dependent upon the paver type that you select and the overall square footage of the patio. If you decide to add a railing or another accessory to the new hardscape feature, this may increase the cost of the new patio.
Landscaping Upgrades
A contractor will tie in landscaping features with the design of the new patio. Shrubs, trees, and plants can be used to accent the newly paved surface.

About Me
I have always been someone who absolutely adores being outside, which is probably one of the reasons I decided to buy a home with a large lot. However, as soon as I moved in, I realized that yard work was a lot more challenging than I had anticipated, which is why I called in a team of professional landscapers. They were amazing to work with and got right to it, and within a few days, the yard was looking amazing. I wanted to create a blog all about creating beautiful outdoors spaces so that other people can help to beautify the world.
