County Materials’ Concrete Paver Textures Add Visual Interest and Define Outdoor Living Spaces
County Materials manufactures concrete pavers in a variety of surface textures that can be mixed and matched to create refined and inviting outdoor living spaces.
Smooth Surface Texture Pavers
Concrete pavers with a smooth surface texture create a sleek look that complements modern and contemporary landscape designs. The uniform, silky texture of smooth pavers is comfortable under bare feet and offers a level surface for patio furniture.
County Materials offers multiple pavers with smooth surface textures.
DISCOVER PAVERS®
DISCOVER PAVERS have a smooth texture and are available in three dimensionally compatible sizes with a height of 2 ¾ inches (70 mm).
4x8 ELEMENTS™ PAVERS & 8x16 ELEMENTSTM PAVERS
ELEMENTS PAVERS are smooth, decorative pavers that are available in two sizes (4x8 and 8x16), both with a height of 2 ¾ inches (70 mm). They are a popular choice for patio, driveway, and walkway borders, especially when combined with our other dimensionally compatible pavers.
H2O PRO PAVERS®
H2O PRO PAVERS are smooth permeable pavers designed to be installed with larger gaps for stormwater management applications. Their 3 ⅛-inch (80 mm) height withstands heavy low speed vehicular loads, making them a suitable option for permeable pavements such as driveways, walkways, and parking lots.
REJUVENATE® PAVERS
REJUVENATE PAVERS are smooth-textured concrete pavers designed to enhance drainage. Their uniform shape and 3 ⅛-inch (80 mm) height optimizes installation speed and can be machine laid.
Woodgrain Textured Pavers
Concrete pavers manufactured with woodgrain textures are a durable alternative to wooden decks that provide an upscale, rugged aesthetic. County Materials’ ESSENCE® PAVERS are produced in five plank lengths to facilitate a linear laying pattern. Each paver offers the unmatched strength of concrete, while the authentic looking woodgrain texture adds a handcrafted effect to outdoor living spaces.
Textile Textured Pavers
County Materials draws inspiration from both inside and outside the home for our paver styles. Our Grand FUSION PAVERS™ are contemporary textile textured pavers that bring a new level of interest and refinement to concrete pavers. The pavers feature alternating fields that replicate pebbled leather and striated textiles.
Flagstone Textured Pavers
The timeless look of a flagstone patio can be achieved with flagstone-style concrete pavers. Our DESTINATION PAVERS® are offered in nine sizes that fit together seamlessly and afford unlimited design freedom. The slightly uneven paver surface mimics the look and feel of natural stone.
Slate Textured Pavers
Concrete pavers manufactured with a slate-style surface texture evoke subtle sophistication. Our VANTAGE PAVERS®, 4x8 VANTAGE PAVERS®, and Grand VANTAGE PAVERS® are manufactured with a striking surface texture that adds visual interest to any paver installation.
Soft Slate Textured Pavers
Our Grand TRANQUILITY PAVERS® are manufactured with a subtle surface texture that has smaller elevation changes than our slate-style pavers. The clean lines of Grand TRANQUILITY PAVERS complement homes with a modern and refined aesthetic.
How to Choose the Right Paver Textures for Your Space
When choosing between smooth and textured pavers, designers consider the aesthetics of the home and the surrounding landscape as well as the intended use of the space.
The clean lines of pavers with a smooth surface texture can complement modern and contemporary homes. Smooth-textured pavers are often preferred for patio lounges, pool decks, and outdoor dining areas because the even surface prevents furniture from wobbling.
Designers who want to create a more traditional aesthetic often choose pavers with textures that mimic natural stone. The variations in textured pavers create shadows that catch the eye and add dimension to patio, driveway, walkway, and pool deck installations.
Mix and Match Paver Textures to Add Visual Interest
Pavers with different surface textures can be combined in creative patterns to create one-of-a-kind installations. Two of our paver collections with a smooth surface texture (DISCOVER PAVERS and ELEMENTS PAVERS) are dimensionally compatible with three of our textured pavers (VANTAGE PAVERS, Grand FUSION PAVERS, and Grand TRANQUILITY PAVERS). The uniform height of these pavers means they can be mixed and matched effortlessly without adding complexity to the installation.
Select colors in smooth and textured pavers are also available with Sentinel Sealed TechnologyTM, a factory-applied penetrating primer and sealer that provides exceptional surface protection and performance. Pavers manufactured with Sentinel Sealed Technology offer maximum stain resistance, surface protection, and longer-lasting color. Their ultra-smooth finish, refined texture, and slip resistance make them ideal for applications such as pool decks, patios, and barefoot-friendly spaces.
