Yes, you can put pavers over concrete. There can be cracks in the old patio as long as it is still level and has not "heaved" up in any areas. Concrete makes a great base for our products. We will still need to retain the border of your project. See similar questions...

We will still need to retain the border of your project. You should also bare in mind that using pavers will raise the finish level of the pavement and as such may interfere with doors, gates and other surfaces that adjoin the area.

StreetPrint? can be installed very quickly with relatively little disruption, so it is usually much less costly and disruptive than concrete alternatives. StreetPrint? uses asphalt as its base. Asphalt is a flexible surface that is more likely to accept shifting due to weather extremes and can resist cracking commonly associated with other paving systems. Vehicle braking/accelerating and steering will not shift or break StreetPrint?, as often happens with brick pavers. See similar questions...

Concrete is an inexpensive and durable option, but it will crack. Pavers are more expensive but last longer, provide more of an interest from a design perspective, and are easily repaired if earth shifting occurs. Stone creates a beautiful and natural look but is the most expensive option. Many stone applications can be sandset, which is flexible to ground shifting. Occasionally stone requires a mortar setting, which is less tolerant of ground shifting. See similar questions...

A hard level surface is recommended. Placing the unit on a surface that is not hard and level can cause the unit to perform poorly or shut off due to activation of the safety tilt switch. See similar questions...

There is no problem with using pavers around trees. You should consider leaving a 4-foot area between the tree and the pavers. Consult your local landscaper for these recommendations. Return General FAQ See similar questions...

Brick paving can be installed over existing concrete or asphalt as long as it is in reasonably good shape. To ensure an adequate foundation for the brick, the existing concrete slab or asphalt should be inspected and repaired as necessary. Any cracks, chips, holes, ruts or spalls should be repaired in order to achieve a flat surface. The brick can be installed either with or without mortar. If no mortar is used, a half-inch setting bed of coarse sand should be laid and compacted. See similar questions...

Being individual pieces, concrete pavers won’t build up heat like a solid sheet of concrete and that heat will tend to dissipate between each stone making pavers a cool product to use around a pool. One good tip is to always use light colors for a pool deck. Return General FAQ See similar questions...

In Europe, they have seen pavers last over 50 years. This is much longer than other pavements under normal residential use. The longevity of your interlocking pavement starts with using high quality pavers manufactured by Millennium Paving Stones Ltd. and using a competent installation contractor to execute a proper installation. If pavers are not installed properly they may not last as long as they should. Return General FAQ See similar questions...

There is no way that we can prevent oil from dripping on concrete pavers. Yet, because pavers are denser than regular poured concrete, they will be easier to clean if the stain is cleaned soon after it happens. If you are working around your paver patio, walkway, or driveway with paint, cement, or mortar and should accidentally spill this on your paver surface, you should clean it off right away before it has a chance to dry. Otherwise, it will stain your pavers. See similar questions...

The joints between pavers eliminate cracking that is normal to conventional asphalt and concrete pavements. Return General FAQ Yes, if necessary. That is an item you will discuss with your installer when he come out to give you an estimate. Return Installation FAQ See similar questions...

You will never see a crack running through a paver patio or across a paver walk, and of course pavers offer more design diversity. Back to top See similar questions...

Concrete pavers offer more design options (more colors and sizes), whereas clay pavers offer less maintenance. The cost is about the same. Concrete pavers tend to lay a bit snugger, making tighter joints and a more consistently flat surface. Clay pavers however hold their color much the use of chemical sealers. Although the concrete is died straight through the paver, the die still has a tendency to wash off the top over time. See similar questions...

Sealing is not essential in many applications but it offers some benefits like making spills and stains easier to remove. Liquid sealers are applied after the pavers are installed and are cleaned. Once applied, the sealers soak into the concrete and into the joints. The sealers in the joints help keep the joint sand in place and prevent weeds and ants, and sealers are essential for areas around swimming pools. See similar questions...
