Patio steps: concrete pavers vs natural stone
Comments (6)I can't speak to permacon as they're not sold in my area, but that looks like a pretty standard wet cast step slab. At this point most of the paver manufacturers have ripped off one another's designs so much that structurally, most products are virtually similar. The big difference is in the finished look. For example, Techo-Bloc's Rocka step (similar to your Hemmingford) has less color variation than the equivalent from Cambridge-Armortec. For areas that see a good bit of traffic, we generally only use wet cast slab steps or sawn natural stone slabs (when we're not doing a full masonry set of steps). The really natural steps just have too much variation in height and depth to pass the official Revolutionary Gardens test of "can I navigate this safely after a bottle of wine?" For coming out of a house you will likely need something on the sides, but it's impossible to advise beyond that without knowing what you're looking at....See MoreHelp choosing paver colors?
Comments (26)Ok , so I was told by my guy to go to a local stone placenta. They told me sierra isn't available around here in that particular brick shape (important because it's a well-priced option and we are already spending a ton of money between the porch steps, front walkway and huge back patio area). so I got some other options, shown here against our charcoal painted porch and BM revere pewter painted brick: The top two are by another manufacturer. And I was told by the salesperson that the second one is the most popular of that brand but I'm not sure how I feel about it with my paint colors. Thoughts? As always, you guys have been so helpful....See MoreRaised paver patio color selection
