How Long do Stone Pavers Last (Stone Pavers Lifecyle)
General Lifecyle and Longevity of Paving Stones in Sacramento Weather?
One of the things many customers ask us when considering paving an area with stone pavers is how long those stone pavers are going to last.
The answer is that they are designed to last forever. The pavers themselves are made of stone, obviously, and are therefore permanent and not liable to breakage. Of course, they can be cracked or chipped if extreme force is applied to them, but under normal or even heavy use they will hold up and resist breakage.
- SHIFTING STONES? Another thing to consider is whether your stone paver installation will shift, whether it is a patio, a walkway, a pool deck, or a driveway. The fact about this is that if your stone pavers have been properly installed by a competent professional, such as the experts at Paver Stones Sacramento, they will not shift.
- SETTLING STONES? In fact, with time, the stone pavers will settle into the ground and they will become less and likely to shift, and more and more stable. As a result, your stone paver patio or paver stone driveway is going to last much, much longer than a concrete patio or driveway would.
All you have to do to become convinced of this fact is to look at some old houses with paving stone walkways and compare them to old houses with concrete walkways. Chances are, you will see the paving stone walkways still in beautiful condition, while the concrete walkways are going to be cracked or even have chunks missing from them.
