The Belgard porcelain paver line offers several styles to create fabulous contemporary outdoor living spaces. Outdoor porcelain pavers are similar to indoor porcelain tiles, only thicker and more durable. They are frost-resistant, skid-resistant, stain-resistant and easy to clean. Combined with incredibly high breakage loads (up to 2,000 pounds), porcelain pavers are the perfect solution for gardens, terraces and high traffic outdoor areas. Our porcelain pavers also offer the flexibility to be dry laid onto grass, gravel, dirt and sand -- or onto terraces and roofs using raised supports - without grout, adhesives or specialized workers, making porcelain pavers incredibly easy to install.
Even though Belgard pavers are extremely durable and come with a lifetime structural warranty, seasonal maintenance is encouraged to preserve the beauty and integrity of your hardscape installation. To keep pavers looking their best, plan to clean and reseal them every three to five years. Part of the Oldcastle family of architectural products, Techniseal has been a world leader in the field of jointing sand and paver maintenance products for over 30 years. Inventors of the polymeric sand category, Techniseal has long been the preferred jointing material used with installations of Belgard pavers.

Belgard permeable pavers mimic the way natural land absorbs water. With permeable concrete pavers, any rain that falls on your patio, walkway or driveway seeps back into the ground, reducing the burden on storm drains. A permeable paver system can even be designed to harvest and recycle rainwater.

Whether you are building a paver project for the first time or the tenth, hardscape installations can be messy work. There will be mud, but it will be gorgeous in the end. Unless your project involves overlaying existing concrete, the first step is to excavate the top layer of soil. The amount of soil excavated will depend on the type of project. Typically, the next step is to install a layer of compacted aggregate, then a layer of bedding sand, then the hardscapes, then jointing material. Pavers are installed on a compacted granular aggregate which should be between 4 and 6 inches deep.
