Benefits of using Clay Paver - Why not concrete?

Concrete

• Plenty of shapes to choose from
• Textured blocks available
• Highly accurate sizes
• Wide choice of block depths, from 40mm to 100mm or more
• Colours fade over time-This means you will have to spend money replace it very often!
• Aggregate can become exposed over time
• Short-lived

Clay

• Prices usually slightly higher than concrete, depending on colour
• Extremely hardwearing
• Natural colour will not fade
• Patterned pavers available
• Prone to mosses
• Size tolerance is quite variable due to firing process
• Mostly square or rectangular
• Damned hard to cut
• More limited choice of block depths
• Will probably outlast all of us, and our children, and probably their children as well!
