Replacing pavers from hail damage

Replacing pavers from hail damage

Hail and Pavers…can be a bad combination!

Several months back the St. Louis metro area was victim of a bad hail storm. Many families found that their roofs, fascia, gutters, siding, and vehicles were damaged. Insurance claims were filed.

Well, it came to our attention by one of our customers that their recently installed  paver patio suffered damage as well. It seems that the hail chipped away corners and edges of their paver patio. This is something that we have never seen before.

Therefore, we consulted with the manufacturer for some answers.  In the end, it was considered that replacing the bad pavers was the best thing to do. The customer’s homeowner’s insurance covered the cost and the repairs were made.

If you should ever have this happen, please call us at (314) 423-9244 for a free estimate. We are experienced and would be happy to help.

Using Belgard pavers for your patio

Have you ever thought of using outdoor pavers for your patio?

There are a few benefits of permeable pavers. They help preserve our environment and water. They reduce the amount of storm water runoff entering our natural waterways carrying contaminants and pollutants.  The voids between the permeable pavers promote the infiltration of rainwater into the soil and help recharge the ground water. Applying permeable pavers results in less storm water runoff, which means our streams and riverbeds are less likely to flood as often. An added benefit of this is a reduction in the rate of erosion of riverbanks and steam beds.

Belgard’s collection of permeable pavers are:

Subterra Stone

Eco Dublin

Turfstone

Aqua Roc

Please call Charlie today at (314) 423-9244 to schedule a free estimate and see how Belgard pavers enhance your home and keep your carbon footprint low.
