The Pitfalls of Installing Pavers Over Concrete in Calgary
Installing pavers over concrete can be a tempting option for homeowners who want to upgrade their outdoor space without breaking the bank. However, it's important to recognize that this approach isn't always suitable for every situation. In this blog post, we'll explore the potential problems that can arise when installing pavers over concrete in Calgary.
One common issue that can arise when installing pavers over concrete is an underlying foundation problem. If the base underneath the concrete is failing, it's necessary to remove the concrete and start from scratch. Simply chipping out the problematic section won't suffice. Neglecting this problem can lead to major issues down the road.
Another consideration when installing pavers over concrete is the height of the pavers. Certain pavers may be too tall for your space, resulting in tripping hazards, blocked doors, drainage issues, or uneven surfaces. Using shorter pavers, such as those specifically made for overlays that are one-inch tall, may be a suitable solution.
