Hello, i think i am posting this in the wrong place but I'm not sure I have a painted deck around my pool that never looks good. I am also thinking putting pavers on my drive way. Has anyone pit tile or pavers around their pool ad on the driveway. and who should i talk to about tis .
thank you

There are many reports of the thin (1.5 inch?) pavers cracking on the driveways. I have a neighbor that had them removed due to the required yearly maintenance. You have many other choices, we have painted (concrete stain) xylene based on the driveway for over 10 years, still have it in the birdcage, looks great long lasting. In any case make sure your coating of choice is NONSLIP, as there are several coatings that can be very slippery when wet. Also ask about maintenance, pavers typically require yearly maintenance including resanding and sealer. Tile will need to be discussed with an installer and will need a crack suppressant layer when applied over concrete and MUST be slip resistant.

I have concrete pavers in my drive way. Most of them are fine, however, the ones on the edge have come loose and some have cracked. The driveway has a little slope near the road and some of them moved over time and created gaps between them. I had to removed them one at a time, clean the area they came from and put them back. I used a cement "glue" to hold them in place this time (I hope it works, I've had to do this 3 times in 4 years). Some in the field have cracked but I don't have any to replace them.
