Pavers
Individual units of concrete, brick, or natural stone used to create durable outdoor surfaces for patios, driveways, and walkways.
Why It Matters for Homeowners
Why it matters: pavers have three measurable advantages over poured concrete. They last longer (50-plus years versus 25-30 for concrete), they can be repaired by replacing individual units instead of patching the whole surface, and they handle ground movement without cracking because they flex at the joints. The tradeoff is upfront cost, typically 1.5-2x concrete, but lifetime cost is usually lower.
