Garden Paving Slabs: A Beautiful Addition To The Residence

Saturday, November 21st, 2009

Garden paving slabs are a nice way to improve a residence from the outside. A paver is a stone, concrete block or brick that can be used to lay a flat surface such as a patio, walk or driveway. Some of the pavers interlock with sand in between each block to lock it in. Once completed this type of project is beautiful and will make walking outside definitely a moment to enjoy a breath of fresh air.

One type of paver to use in the garden is the brick paver. This type of paver is about four inches by eight inches long. Some companies are making bricks with a spacer built into the side of it. They have started to create more pavers like this due to the success of the interlocking paver. The bricks are layed out and the joints in between each one are filled with sand. By putting the sand in between it locks the brick in but it gives it some room to adjust to the shifting ground. This type of installation is sturdier than just placing bricks side by side.
