Concrete pavers and paving stones for sale
Concrete pavers, also sold as concrete paving stones, are manufactured to consistent dimensions so they lay flat, lock together and carry vehicle loads without the thickness variation you get from natural stone. That repeatability is why a concrete paver driveway can be installed over a compacted base rather than a poured slab, and why a damaged unit can be lifted and replaced years later without recutting the field.
Pavers here are sold by the piece and by the pallet. Pallet quantities are how driveways, patios and larger courtyards are normally ordered, because the price per square foot drops and the color runs stay consistent across the job. To price a full pallet delivered, request a quote.
Driveway pavers, patio pavers and backyard pavers
The application decides the thickness, not the look. Driveway pavers need enough depth and a properly compacted base to spread vehicle weight, which is why a driveway is built differently from a walkway using the identical stone. Patio pavers and backyard pavers can run thinner because the load is foot traffic, so the choice there is mostly about color, size and pattern.
Garden pavers and garden paving slabs work the same way: set them on a compacted base with a screeded sand or decomposed granite bedding layer, and leave room for the joint material. For hardscape pavers running against planting beds, plan the edge restraint before you lay the field, because that is what stops the outer course from creeping. Compare decomposed granite and bedding sand for the layer underneath.
Paver colors: grey, charcoal, black, brown and beige
Color is where most projects actually get decided. Grey pavers and charcoal pavers read modern and hide tire marks well, which is why grey patio pavers and charcoal patio pavers are the most common driveway and courtyard choice. Dark grey pavers and black pavers give the strongest contrast against light gravel, decomposed granite and green planting. Gray pavers and grey paving stones are the same product, spelled either way, and the grey paving stones you see on a driveway are often the identical unit used for a patio in a thinner profile. If you are searching for pavers for driveway use rather than patio use, filter on thickness first and color second.
On the warmer side, dark brown pavers, beige pavers and beige patio pavers blend into desert and Mediterranean palettes and show dust far less than dark stone in a dry climate. Every color on this page comes in solid, blended and tumbled finishes, so the same tone can read crisp and contemporary or softened and aged depending on the finish you pick.
Paver sizes and how much you need
Measure the length and width of the area, then add about ten percent for cuts and breakage. Square and rectangular formats such as 3x3 pavers are the simplest to estimate because they tile predictably. Running bond and herringbone patterns waste more at the perimeter, so the allowance goes up on angled layouts.
Coverage per pallet varies with the paver size and thickness, so check the coverage figure on the product page rather than assuming a standard pallet. Run your dimensions through the coverage calculator for a starting number.
