Paving the Way with Paver Driveways

Homeowners in Cincinnati are always looking for ways to update their landscape and elevate their curb appeal. The driveway is a great place to start especially if it’s dull, cracked or just looking outdated. There are so many materials used for driveways; paving stone, concrete, asphalt and more. So what are the benefits to choosing pavers for a driveway? 

Flexibility

Due to the way pavers are installed, there is a natural flexibility on the surface. This allows the pavers to contract and expand to adjust to freezing and thawing conditions, virtually preventing any cracking that is more typical of asphalt or poured in-place cement.

Strength

Concrete paving stones are manufactured specifically for strength and durability. They are typically two to three times stronger than poured-in-place concrete. The amount of concrete and quality control that goes into each paver piece means increased strength throughout. 

Vast Style Choices

With paver stones your imagination is the only style limit. You can mix colors, textures and patterns. Create a special design with the stones and be the talk of the neighborhood. Even match the stones to the color and character of your home.

Fast Installation

When you finally decide on a color, texture and design you can’t wait to see it all come together. Luckily with a paver driveway, installation is quick and easy. There is no waiting period to walk or drive on the installed product.

Easy Maintenance

Maintenance for driveway pavers compared to asphalt is way simpler and cost effective. Asphalt can develop stains and cracks that can require time consuming repairs and restoration that will likely have to be done more than once. Restoration for a paving stone, although rare, simply involves replacing that stone with a new one.

Easy Replacement

As mentioned previously, repairs for paver driveways consists of simply replacing any damaged stones. You won’t have to replace the entire driveway and the task can be done quickly and even by yourself.

Environmentally Friendly

If you live in an area that sees a lot of rainfall, it’s possible your local government may require permeable paving solutions due to stormwater management issues and paver driveways are a great permeable solution.
