Nothing matches the beauty of brick pavers in Michigan homes, especially when they are installed by a professional company such as Domenico Brick Paving and Landscaping.  Whether it is a simple pool surround, or an elegant driveway leading up to your home, the right brick pavers can complement any style, along with increasing the curb appeal and value of your home.

Did you know that brick pavers in Michigan are more durable and last longer than another other paving option due to their density?  Brick pavers have an average PSI (pounds per square inch) rating of 8,500.  That is significantly more than asphalt (averaging 600 PSI), standard concrete (2,300 PSI), or stamped concrete (4,200 PSI).

No, these pavers aren’t indestructible, but if they ever are damaged, repairs are easily made.  Unlike concrete, where you will always notice a patch, pavers can be individually replaced and no one will ever see the difference.

With the wide variety of styles, colors and shapes available, a brick paver patio can be designed to suit any taste and accent any home.  Oftentimes, homeowners get caught up in the look of their brick paver patio rather than the integrity of the construction.  The professionals at Domenico find these elements to be of equal importance.  In addition to our design services, the installation pros of Domenico also takes into account factors such as the grading, base, and cutting of the brick paver patio. 

GRADING  The surface of a brick paver patio needs to be properly graded to divert water away from your home, while at the same time not making the slope too great that it is noticeable when patio furniture is placed on the surface.  

BASE  If a base isn’t properly installed, you’ll generally start to see problems within the first two years.  Domenico Brick Paving takes the time to create a proper base so your project won’t experience the problems associated with poor base structures.  We also offer a 5 year warranty on our work, which we provide to you in writing.

CUTTING  Our paver cuts are be clean, straight, and align with adjacent cuts.  To insure clean cuts, we use diamond blade circular saws to cut and trim to design the pavers for an aesthetically pleasing finish to the patio installation.

As one of our customers recently stated, “After the hard winter, it was great to see that our patio looks exactly the same as it did when the crew put it in last summer.  Awesome work!”
