Pavement paving as an art form

After the construction of the house, it's time to improve the garden. To begin with, you should pave all the paths for free movement between all buildings and important objects. To make it not only functionally, but also looked impressive, it is very important to carefully select the materials for the tracks. Manufacturers are conventionally divided into hard, soft and combined.

Hard coating

This kind of materials include natural stone, concrete covering, clinker brick, concrete stone, paving colored tile, as well as wood.

A natural stone

To date, more than a dozen different breeds have been widely used for such purposes. They are used not only in natural, but also in processed species. Therefore, you can choose the most diverse texture - from rough and rough to smooth and mirrored. Of course, the palette of flowers here is somewhat limited by nature, but paving paths with natural stone - a pledge of strength and durability.

Concrete Stone

This material stands out among analogues. Its shape and dimensions are so diverse that they allow creating both winding paths and a wide access road.

Monolithic concrete covering

As a rule, paving of tracks from this material is not done, they are used only in key areas, for example, they spread the car entrance to a site, a platform in front of the house or a garage.

Clinker brick

This is practically the most expensive material, which is made from baked clay. But it is the most durable in its line, besides it has a very pleasant ocher, red-brown flowers, it also happens bluish-black. The tracks made of clinker bricks look very effective and expensive.

Paving of tracks with colored paving slabs

Even though this material is the most short-lived in comparison with the hard analogs already presented above, it is the most popular for this type of work. The undeniable advantages of paving slabs include the fact that it is produced in a variety of shapes and colors. It can be of two types - vibro-pressed and vibrating. They differ both in their manufacturing techniques and in their characteristics. In the production of concrete for the vibrating tile used strong granite and special plasticizers, and concrete vibropressed consists of ordinary sand and gravel. Therefore, the first is more durable (withstand high loads) and durable, its warranty period of operation (with respect to laying technology) is 10 years. A distinctive characteristic of the second is the variety of decors - wave, brick, pavers, honeycombs and other species. At your request, it can produce other shapes and colors, which will allow you to realize your unique ideas of landscape design.
