Why large format pavers are surging in popularity

Posted on: 04-Mar-2019 14:00:00

Residential homeowners and commercial property owners have consistently diversified their exterior flooring preferences over the years. While some owners opt for small or medium-sized pavers, more developers and homeowners alike are choosing to lay large format pavers in their outdoor spaces.

The uptake of large format pavers is based on the elegant finish they provide. Due to their ease of installation, fast install time and regular shapes, designers are choosing to use them to enhance outdoor spaces and create the illusion of more space.LF-500x500x40-Prod-RT

Finishes

Whether you are covering large sections or have limited space, these finishes allow you to be creative with large format pavers. With more than 10 colour choices and an array of finishes, you have the freedom to choose the perfect large format paver for your area.

For private outdoor spaces, bolder finishes such as pebble, weathered and quarry slate finishes. These are detailed finishes that add a touch of modernity and separate your pavers from the norm.

A honed finish can dramatically change the look of the paver. The honing process essentially polishes the surface of the paver, leaving a smooth surface and exposing more of the aggregates in the concrete mixture.

The wide range of finishes that Best can produce allows you to experiment and set a theme for any outdoor section.
Unlike in-situ concrete, large format pavers can be laid in a variety of patterns, which allows you to couple contemporary designs with the colours and finishes to achieve unique aesthetics.
