With spring weather right around the corner, now is an ideal time to start planning your next hardscaping project.

The pavers you pick will play a key role in creating the look and functionality of your new outdoor space. Whether you’re looking for the best pavers for a driveway or a brick fire pit, Boxley Block, Brick & Hardscapes is here to ensure you choose the perfect match for your project.

Keystone, Nicolock, and Clay Brick pavers are Boxley’s recommended choices for pavers, with each offering specific features and benefits for hardscaping projects.

Keystone Pavers

Keystone pavers are known for their versatility in a range of projects. They are strong enough to support the heavy load of vehicles when used for driveways and durable enough to withstand wear and tear when used for high-traffic walkways. Keystone Pavers can complement any aesthetic.

Nicolock Pavers

Nicolock paving stones come in a wide range of styles and textures that deliver that custom look and feel. Some Nicolock pavers are engineered with advanced technologies, such as stone finishes that deliver enhanced durability andlong-lasting color. Others are designed with the environment in mind, offering permeable options that allow water to drain through them, reducing runoff.

Clay Brick Pavers

Classic clay pavers bring charm and character to any outdoor space. With colors baked in during the manufacturing process, Clay Brick pavers will remain vibrant for years to come, resisting fading and needing minimal maintenance to look great. Made from natural clay, these pavers are an environmentally friendly choice.

Choosing the Best Paver

Here are three things to consider when selecting a paver for your hardscaping project:

  • What are you building and how will it be used? When you understandthe intended use of your space, you can narrow down your options to pavers that can best support the specific demands of the space.
  • What is your aesthetic? Pavers come in a variety of materials, colors, textures, and sizes. Look for pavers that complement the design of your project as well as the surrounding architecture and environment.
  • How much maintenance are you willing to do? Some pavers, such as clay brick, are low maintenance and able to withstand the elements, while others may require periodic sealing or cleaning.
