Mortarless Interlocking Pavers: The Superior Driveway Solution

Pavers (paving stones) offer endless design via shapes, colors, textures. Two installation methods exist—mortarless wins.

Mortared vs. Mortarless

• Mortared: Rigid, mortar joints and bed. Prone to cracking.
• Mortarless: Compacted "Class 2" base (crushed gravel/stone/recycled concrete) → 1" coarse sand → pavers → sand swept into joints. Flexible, crack-free, fastest-growing segment.

Traffic Reality

Pedestrian traffic (high heels) abrades most. Tires polish brick over time but don't damage pavers.

Quality Is Everything

Concrete/asphalt lasts ~10 yrs, cracks. Pavers last lifetime, minimal maintenance, lifetime crack guarantee. Performance hinges on design, materials, workmanship. Hire a true artisan installer.
