Project Q&A

What paver colors look best with the house?
For this project, we selected Unilock Beacon Hill Smooth in Fossil as the primary paver and added Unilock Copthorne in Basalt as a contrasting accent. The combination complements the home’s exterior while creating definition around the pool and throughout the paver design.

What’s the best way to create privacy around a pool?
We used American Arborvitae to create a natural evergreen privacy screen without making the pool area feel enclosed. Little Lime Hydrangeas and assorted perennials were incorporated to soften the landscape and provide seasonal color.

 

What maintenance do pavers require after installation?

Paver maintenance is relatively straightforward. Routine sweeping and occasional cleaning help keep the surface looking its best. Over time, joint sand may need to be replenished, and professional cleaning and sealing can help refresh the appearance of the pavers and protect the surface.
