Q.) How do
I decide which type of paving will suit my project?
A.) There are many different surface finishes and colours
that are available today from various manufacturers.
B.) The first step is to decide which size of pavers you like,
namely large to medium format, or brick size.(ie large and
square or smaller and rectangular)
C.) Next, look to the colours available to you from a particular
paver range, and decide which colour(s) complement your project
best.
D.) Contact Mansour Paving (Aust) Pty Ltd. and have an estimator provide
a written quotation to lay a specified type of paving to your
project.
Q.) Is paving the same as concreting
or stencil-crete?
E.) No. This process involves pouring concrete in a slab
form and either stamping a pattern into the concrete, or spraying
a pattern onto cured concrete.
F.) Paving comes in many different shapes and sizes. They
are pre-cast, individual segments of uniform shape and size,
and are laid one at a time in various patterns to suit the
project needs or clients desires.
Q.) Why is paving a better
option than concrete?
G.) The choices of colours, textures, and formats make paving
extremely versatile compared to all other hard surfaces. No
concrete design can ever replicate the natural and unique
look that comes with paving. Colours can be interchanged as
well as sizes giving you the ability to do what ever your
imagination desires.
Q.) How long will my paving
last?
H.) A quality paving job should last a lifetime. Pavers can
be removed and replaced individually, should one or more crack,
discolour or subside. You may need to access services underground,
in which case access can usually be achieved without the need
for machinery, saving you money.
Q.) Will I need to get my new
pavers sealed?
A.) Some manufacturers advise that their products are sealed
once installed to increase their resistance to staining and
marking. It is also dependent upon the application (ie driveway,
oil stains, tyre marks, damp leaves) whether sealing is necessary.
We always seek the professional advice of a qualified trade
sealant company and suggest all customers do the same for
such a specialized area
