Where to Buy Pavers for a Driveway

Driveway pavers are one of the newest driveway and patio design techniques, giving a driveway or patio that elegant multi-colored brick layout without the risk of cracked brick that sometimes happens with aging. The driveway pavers are made of clay or concrete and dyed to make color options. When installing into the driveway, the pavers are set in sand, allowing room for movement and easy replacement. This prevents cracking and breaking that sometimes happens when bricks are set in mortar, as when they are secured into a permanent position, friction and weathering can cause cracking and deterioration.
  1. Home Improvement Stores

    • Home improvement stores offer a variety of pavers for a driveway. Stores such as Home Depot and Lowe's offer driveway pavers in a variety of colors and styles. These stores also high-density plastic pavers, which are even more durable, and prevent cracks and breakage from occuring. Visit your nearest store location, or visit the stores' websites to see what items they carry (HomeDepot.com, Lowes.com).

    Concrete Supply Companies

    • Concrete supply companies also offer a variety of driveway pavers. Check concrete companies, concrete suppliers or building and construction supplies. Many times concrete companies will have a variety of driveway paver samples in stock that you can study and choose from, and the store associate can also assist you in selecting driveway pavers that best suit your project needs.

    Internet Retailers

    • Internet retailers also offer a wide variety of driveway paver colors and styles. Websites such as NaturalBuiltHome.com, Amazon.com, eBay.com and BuildDirect.com all offer driveway pavers, available in both small quantities for home projects, as well as large quantities for commercial projects. Remember to check shipping costs, as buying pavers in bulk can be very heavy, creating a high shipping cost. Alternately, shop around and find locations that are near you, so either the supplier can deliver the pavers, or you can pick them up yourself at no additional cost.
