Being easy to install means you can do it yourself, or get professional contractors to install your interlock pavers at your home. Interlocking pavers connect by using sand, covering any decking, driveway, gazebo, pergola, patio, or walkway. Pavers are laid in a pattern, leaving a bit of space in between each and every interlocking paver. They are a great alternative to any application that you would normally decide to use bricks or concrete for.
