Are you considering renovating your terrace with a state-of-the-art paver system but aren't sure which option to choose?
There’s so many types of terrace pavers, and choosing the right option can make all the aesthetic difference.
Let’s take a closer look at terrace pavers and the different material they’re made out of so you can choose what’s best for you.
(We’ll even cover some design options, if you stick to the end.)
What is a Terrace Paver System?
Although they come in a variety of materials, a terrace paver system is an interlocking layer of pavers that sits on top of another material—usually, concrete, cement, rubber, or turf—that creates a decorative floor design without restricting water drainage.
Because terraces are platforms that extend from a building to provide an engaging outdoor space, terrace paver systems are often used to modernize the outdoor areas and improve the terrace setting. Here are a few places to find them:
Urban Rooftops and Apartment Buildings
Residential Backyards with Sizable Lots
Commercial Buildings and Hotels
Gardens and Garden Landscapes
The Best Terrace Paver Materials
When trying to select your terrace pavers, you’ll likely encounter several material options. Here’s a breakdown of the different terrace paver materials available:
Concrete Pavers
Durable and versatile, concrete pavers come in various shapes and textures that can be used for creative designs. Unfortunately they can be heavy and difficult to install.
Natural Stone Pavers
Natural stone pavers like granite, limestone, and slate provide a sophisticated and luxurious finish, though they can be high-maintenance and expensive—most likely because of their durability.
Glass Pavers
Glass pavers are rare, but they can be used to add dramatic lighting and can be illuminated from below to add a unique and eye-catching element. That said, they are probably the most difficult to install than other paver materials.
Composite Pavers
Made from recycled materials, composite pavers—such as the ones made from Aspire Pavers—offer excellent durability and design flexibility. They’re also resistant to cracking, staining, and scratching, which makes them a top choice for long-lasting terrace designs.
The Benefits of Aspire’s Composite Pavers For Terraces
Using Aspire’s composite pavers for larger projects, including terraces, gives you a variety of different benefits that you wouldn’t be able to find anywhere else. To name a few:
Durability
Briefly mentioned before, composite pavers are incredibly durable, which helps ensure that your terrace maintains its beautiful appearance and functionality for years—without needing any replacements.
Sustainability
Made from recycled materials, composite pavers help reduce environmental impact and promote sustainability. They also reduce water runoff and help manage excess water, which is beneficial for the environment.
Design
Because they’re available in various colors and patterns, composite pavers can allow you to create a customized terrace design that fits your style and complements your overall design.
Easy Installation
The interlocking design of Aspire’s pavers simplifies the installation process significantly. In fact, it speeds up the installation process and minimizes the cost of labor compared to many other options. Keep in mind, however, that contacting a contractor is always a good idea if you are unsure about how to install the products.
Low Maintenance
Resistant to stains, mold, and mildew, composite pavers require minimal upkeep to keep your terrace looking great. Their non-porous surface prevents the absorption of spills and dirt and helps keep the floor clean.
