Brick pavers used during the early 20th century to build roads are reclaimed when these roads are replaced with modern materials. These pavers measure approximately 8.5 inches long by 3.75 inches wide and are 3.5 inches thick. Antique brick pavers feature a host of colors including red, maroon, purples and pale pinks, with some having their brand etched into the face. They're an ideal building material for driveways because they can withstand heavy car traffic.
Brick pavers in production today feature the same measurements of antique pavers but can be found in many more colors and at a much lower cost. They're constructed from a lighter-weight material and can hold up to the wear of foot and car traffic. Brick pavers allow you to achieve many standard and custom designs, including the herringbone, basket weave, running bond and stacked bond.
Cobblestone brick pavers are a small paver, usually 4 or 6 inches square or in small, rectangle shapes. They come in shallow and deep models designed for either patio, walkway or driveway use. Customers can choose from a host of colors, and the pavers can be combined with custom-shaped pavers to create virtually any design imaginable.
Irregular pavers offer the ability to create custom-designed patios, walkways and driveways. They come in circles, triangles, semi-circles and many other custom shapes. Round and crescent pavers make it easy to create curved walkways and circular patios without the difficult task of cutting conventional pavers uniformly. Irregular pavers, often used as accents within standard and cobblestone projects, can create a custom accent or border.
Simulated pavers feature a larger size than standard pavers, which reduces installation time. They are a cast product either 12 or 16 inches square, with the top designed to mimic a series of individual pavers. These simulated designs often cost much less than their standard counterparts and can mimic standard pavers, cobblestone and custom shapes.
