Anyone regret using 30mm (thin) pavers on driveway
 

I am considering 30mm (thin) pavers on top of my concrete driveway. Has anyone done this and regretted it? Any thoughts on 60mm vs. 30mm pavers?

These thin pavers were never meant to be used on a driveway. They will crack. If you want a paver driveway, personally I'd do it the right way. I chose to do a concrete over lay with a pattern. In any case whether you paint, pave, or do a concrete sculpted over lay they all have to be sealed on a regular basis.

I investigated pavers, and the professionals (the firms that make the pavers) specifically warn against using the thin pavers over concrete. After seeing significant negative comments with regard to pavers, we went with a stain/paint coating for the driveway. The above poster is correct about resealing, ours is supposed be good for 5 to 7 years, then a clear sealing coat. Also, VERY IMPORTANT, any painting or sealing of the driveway needs to have a product called SHARK GRIP mixed with the final coat, or you may end up with a very slippery result when it rains.
Hope this helps.

we used thick pavers over concrete, at the time we had a motor home, truck and boat, we have not had any problems with the thick pavers, and have had them for 4 years.

We did the stain/paint/design on our "early" retirement home. A friend of ours did the heavy pavers about the same time. He said he wouldn't do it again some cracks each year to repair and costly to seal. Our stain job looked good for a couple of years and then started fading regardless of the seal.

Bottom line---a driveway is a driveway----I never did anything to any driveway after that Experence. But to each his own.

Thinner pavers break. No way thicker pavers would break if installed properly
Just had Leo's landscaping put down thicker pacers at same cost as some of these other companies charge for thinner pavers.
My neighbor replaced his too.
See for yourself
Sealing is included and should be completed in 2-3 weeks

Thicker pavers cannot break. Leo's Landscaping does a good job at prices better than prominent companies.

Pavers look great. If your doing them on a budget you will do the same job several time. Must have a great base & use the thicker Pavers. The thin ones will crack, shift and open up in between pavers over time in a driveway setting
Thin pavers are for walkways. Bottom line...You get what you pay for$$.

Nearly everyone who had thin pavers installed regret the decision. The thicker pavers seem to be much better. I personally like the acrylic application.

Thick or thin pavers must have a decent cement content when they produce them and any square size is better than what they call a lollipop paver. If you wish send a PM and we will figure your specific job needs no problemo.

I prefer my la naturale only care is an occasional power wash

Pooters uses the better pavers. 3 years and no problems.

What are the better pavers?

We did the thin pavers about 8 years ago. Would not do it again. Constant breakage.
