What are the advantages of Aspenstone pavers?
As well as being versatile, diverse and visually appealing (as mentioned above), Aspenstone pavers come with even more upside.
They are easy to install
Aspenstone concrete pavers are easier to handle and install than other paving materials, and installing them can be a DIY job, making it cheaper. They are consistent in shape also, which makes for minimal laying time and makes it easier to maintain the dimensions.
They are tough and durable
Aspenstone pavers might look elegant and sophisticated, but that doesn’t mean you need to baby them. Actually, Aspenstone concrete pavers are extremely tough and durable, and can easily handle harsh weather conditions and heavy foot traffic – without losing their good looks. They are resistant to stains and spills, and will last a long time with minimal care.
They require minimal maintenance
Speaking of minimal care – Aspenstone pavers are the ultimate in low maintenance flooring. They require minimal maintenance to stay looking good, and will just need the occasional sweeping to remove debris or a light acid wash to remove stains. They will need to be sealed once they have been installed, and may need to be re-sealed every now and then to prevent fading or staining.
They are safe and non-slip
A surface paved with Aspenstone concrete pavers is safe for use by children, adults and pets. They are secure and non-slip, and can even be used safely around pools and water features; whereas other paving products, such as stone, bricks and poured concrete, can be slippery when wet. They are cooler to the touch in sunlight than other products too, making them safe to use year-round.
Aspenstone pavers will add style, elegance, class and charm to any area, and will help create a unique, interesting and lovely space with high visual appeal to enjoy.
