What
are the advantages of sealing my pavers?
Sealers can offer several advantages: they help resist stains
and may enhance the color Sealers, however, are topical products
and must be reapplied regularly (generally every 2 to 3 years).
What can I do if my pavers are stained or damaged?
One of the advantages of pavers is that individual units can
be removed and replaced in these situations. Remove the sand
around the paver and then use two flat head screwdrivers to
lift the paver out. Rocking the paver gently in a back-and-forth
motion will facilitate removal.
How do I remove grease and oil stains from my pavers?
To safely remove grease or oil stains from concrete pavers
use a product specifically designed to do just that. Sure
Bond and Techni-Seal's both make an excellent Dirt and Grease
Cleaner available at Low Country Pavers in Hardeeville. If
you want to seal your pavers to help minimize future staining,
we recommend sealers from SureBond. Before sealing your pavers
you should do a general cleaning of the entire surface to
remove any soils or surface efflorescence. A word of caution:
make sure that the pavers are completely clean and dry before
applying the sealer.
Can pavers be installed on top of my existing concrete
patio or walkway?
Yes, if the concrete is in good shape. Typically, a 30 mm
paver is used for these applications and are installed over
a thin bed of sand.
How long does it take to replace an existing driveway
with a paver driveway?
Of course the weather and soil conditions play a big role
in this but typically a driveway project with take two to
three full days to complete.
Do the pavers themselves come with a guarantee?
Yes a 25-year limited warranty on its concrete pavers and
5 year warranty on it installation.

New Vision Pavers & Flooring provide references?
Of course. We have many happy and satisfied and many of them
have given us permission to use them as a reference. Just
ask and we will provide the information.
Why do Pavers make the ideal pavement?
Pavers are the ideal product for all environments. Proper
installation of the product results in a pavement that is
rigid, yet flexible. The joints between pavers allow the walkway,
driveway, patio, etc. to move without cracking.
Why are they called interlocking concrete pavers?
It is the system that makes them interlocking concrete pavers,
not necessarily the shape. When installed properly, the combination
of the pavers, bedding sand, edge restraint and joint sand
causes them to interlock, allowing them to work as a unified,
flexible pavement.
Can Pavers be used for my driveway?
Absolutely! For residential driveways, 8” of compacted
base material is recommended.
What are the advantages of sealing my pavers?
Sealers can offer a couple of advantages: a sealed driveway
may make it easier to remove stains, mold, moss, and mildew
and may enhance the color Sealers, however, are topical products
and must be reapplied regularly (generally every 2-3 years).
Sealing does not extend the life or durability of the pavers.
What decisions do we have to make in considering a
paver project?
Once you have decided to proceed you will need to decide upon
the design, color(s), the body pattern, the border pattern,
and the style (cobble or plantation). So basically, just four
main decisions. Other considerations include widening the
driveway, curving the walkway, flaring the walkway at the
entry, using tumbled pavers, etc.
Is New Vision Pavers & Flooring bonded and insured?
Yes and yes.
Will weeds grow between my pavers?
Weeds and grass result from seeds or spores blowing into,
and lodging in, the joint sand. If weeds do appear, a spot
vegetation killer (such as Round-Up™) can be used and
will not damage the pavers.
I have an existing concrete walkway that's in pretty
good shape. Can I lay pavers over it?
While not the preferred method, pavers can be laid on top
of existing concrete walkways. Two issues must be addressed.
First, the grade will be raised by about 1.2 inches. This
is particularly critical if any doorways are involved. Second,
if the existing concrete slab should raise or drop then the
pavers will do the same.
