Travertine, Slate and Other Types of Paver Stones

Slate, Brick, and Other Types of Pavers for Your Home

If you are thinking about putting in paver stones for your home or business, you may be a little overwhelmed at all the different types of paver stones that are out there to choose from.

In this article, we are going to shed a little light on the different types of paver stones so you will understand the difference and hopefully gain insight into which kind you want.

The Many Types of Paver Stones We Offer:

• Travertine This kind of stone makes for extremely hard, extremely durable paver stones. Many people choose travertine because they won’t break and these pavers can last a lifetime.
• Slate paver stones are dark gray in color and make for very handsome paving material. If you are looking for elegance, a slate paver is your answer! One of the few drawbacks to slate is that it tends to be slippery when wet, so it is not as good for pool decks, front steps, or anywhere that it would be easy to slip and hurt yourself.
• Brick paver stones are manufactured, rather than cut, and are a very popular kind of paver stone. Bricks are very safe and non-slippery, have an extremely uniform shape, and are easy to install.
