Default Installation of Pavers

I had the thin Pavers for 3 yrs prior to moving to a new residence..

To prevent most cracking... several things must be done... use the right
sand... seal every 2 yrs over the sand in between the pavers... have
a good installer put the pavers in tight and bond and cement the outer
edge totally/completely... pavers will not move... naturally keep the
big RV's Dump Truck and this class of weight off your driveway..

Over the years you may have 3 to 5 cracks some very minor... easy to
change out in a matter of minutes.. You might want to check with the
quality of those thin pavers... they do differ... I have been more than
pleased with two jobs I have had done... Plan on doing it again with
the brand new home in a month or so... If those pavers continue to
crack all over the place... something is wrong with the original install.
