If you've ever wondered why some paver projects look incredible twenty years later while others start sinking before the first summer is over, this book lays it all out in a straightforward way. It breaks down everything you need to know before you spend a single dollar on your patio, driveway, pool deck, or walkway. You'll learn how a proper base is built, how drainage actually works, which materials last the longest, and what maintenance really matters.
The book also shows you what normal aging looks like, what counts as a real problem, and how to tell when a contractor knows their stuff versus when they're about to cut corners. You get checklists, simple routines, myth busting, and the exact questions to ask so you can hire the right person instead of the cheapest one.
If you want pavers that stay level, stay clean, and stay beautiful without turning into a money pit, this is the guide you want in your hands. It saves you time, stress, and a whole lot of expensive mistakes.
