How Does Water Exit the Patio?

This is a worry to most people. But worry no more we make sure no water is flowing were it not supposed to. Check out are process, we might answer some of you questions. 

Installing a paver patio with elevations. 

When is comes to installing your patio, our main focus is to determine where the water will go. Do we have enough pitch? Every patio should have 1 inch of fall per 10 feet of patio. 10 feet = 1 inch of pitch/fall. For example you have 20 feet of patio you should have 2 inches of fall going ahead from your home and other structures water doesn't get along with.

You might hear us say we are going to make your patio permeable or none permeable...

Now we really have you confused? Don't worry that why we are here!

​

Permeable pavers:

Permeable pavers are a type of paving material that allows water to seep through the surface and be absorbed into the ground below, rather than running off into storm drains. This design helps reduce rainwater runoff, prevent flooding, and recharge groundwater levels. Permeable pavers are often used in areas where drainage is a concern, such as parking lots, driveways, and walkways. Additionally, they can help filter pollutants from the water as it passes through the surface, improving water quality.

 

None Permeable pavers:

Non-permeable pavers, also known as impermeable pavers, are types of paving materials that do not allow water to pass through them. This can lead to increased stormwater runoff, erosion, and potential flooding in urban areas. While non-permeable pavers may be more visually appealing and easier to clean, they are not as environmentally friendly as their permeable counterparts. But not all pavers are Permeable.
