Use Pavers for Patios and Walkways

The use of interlocking concrete pavers has increased immensely over the last decade. With great variety in color, shape and texture, pavers are an excellent alternative to poured concrete or asphalt. David Smith of the Interlocking Concrete Paver Institute explains the basic process in this article. Though installation is time-consuming and proper technique essential, it's certainly not rocket science and should be considered by the do-it-yourself homeowner. Unlike other surfaces, the paver surface is flexible, and able to withstand the effects of harsh climates. This is a cost-effective and aesthetically pleasing addition to the landscape; if you are considering a new patio or walkway, this well-written article will give you a good start.
