Peacock Pavers FAQs
- How eco-friendly are concrete pavers?
Peacock Pavers are highly eco-friendly as they are made from recyclable concrete – plus, they require much less fuel to produce than is required to quarry, cut, and haul natural stone. Peacock Pavers are often used by architects and designers seeking LEED certification for their building projects.
- Can concrete pavers be installed indoors?
Yes, they can. Our 5/8′-inch and 1″ pavers are suitable for interior applications.
- What paver shapes do you offer?
Peacock Pavers are available in classic square and rectangular shapes and hexagon, picket, and chevron shapes – many of which may be combined in a wide range of attractive patterns. Learn more about paver shapes and patterns.
- What colors do Peacock Pavers come in?
Peacock Pavers are currently available in six attractive standard colors: Rice White, Buff, Dolphin Grey, Oyster, Slate, and Champagne. For projects of 7,000 square feet or more, we can also mix custom colors for a nearly infinite choice of colors and shades. Learn more about paver colors.
- How expensive are concrete pavers?
Concrete pavers are neither the least nor most expensive option on the market, but they offer the best value for the price. Peacock Pavers are slightly more expensive to install than poured concrete but considerably more affordable than natural stone.
- What sealer do you recommend for Peacock Pavers?
The sealant we recommend for all Peacock Pavers is Enhance Architectural Products (EAP) concrete sealer, which is available in both regular and heavy-duty strengths. In our experience, EAP products do the best job of providing a robust, clear protective layer without affecting the pavers’ overall appearance.
- Do Peacock Pavers need to be sealed?
We highly recommend applying a high-quality sealant to protect your Peacock Pavers from discoloration and other signs of wear caused by weathering conditions and general traffic. A sealant will also protect against stains caused by spills. You should seal Peacock Pavers upon installation for best results and re-apply approximately every five years.
- How do I clean Peacock Pavers?
Once installed, Peacock Pavers are easy to clean and maintain. For day-to-day cleaning, pavers can be swept of dirt and debris using a push broom, and outdoor pavers can be cleaned using a water hose. We recommend using a mild, non-acidic cleaning solution for periodic deeper cleaning of indoor pavers, such as Enviro Klean All Surface Cleaner or Light Duty Concrete Cleaner. Learn more about how to clean concrete pavers.
- Is it more affordable to use poured concrete or concrete pavers?
In terms of short-term installation costs, poured concrete is the more affordable option; however, concrete pavers are more durable and versatile than poured concrete. They tend to withstand more freeze/thaw cycles without cracks or damage – so concrete pavers tend to be more cost-effective in the long run. Learn more about poured concrete vs. concrete pavers.
