Pavers FAQs
1Are paver prices different between manufacturers?
Yes, the prices do vary depending on which manufacturer you choose. For example, different manufacturers may offer different types of pavers that have different costs associated with them. Some manufacturers may also offer discounts or special promotions to help make their prices more competitive. Additionally, some paver suppliers may charge extra for shipping and handling costs when purchasing larger quantities of pavers.
2Does the type of paver affect the price (Tumbled, Non-Tumbled)?
The prices for the different types of pavers do vary. Non-tumbled is the least expensive, followed by tumbled, and then slate top.
3Should I have my pavers sealed?
No, sealer is optional. There are various types of sealers including color enhancer sealer, wet look sealer, and the most popular–joint stabilizer sealer. This particular sealer locks in the joints to help prevent weeds or any other growth from occurring between the pavers. It also works to inhibit staining, though it does not eliminate all stains.
4How long will it take to install my new driveway pavers?
A 1000 sq ft driveway will take approximately 3-4 days from start to finish.
5There are a lot of companies that specialize in paving, so how can you be sure to choose the right one?
When choosing a paving company, it is important to consider their reputation and experience. Read reviews online or ask for references from past customers. You should also discuss the scope of the project with them in order to make sure that they are comfortable completing the job. Lastly, you should always compare quotes from multiple companies in order to get the best deal .
6Is there a difference between regular and permeable pavers?
Yes, there is a difference between the two. Regular pavers are solid blocks of concrete or stone that allow water to run off into the soil below, while permeable pavers have spaces in between them that allow water to flow through them into the ground beneath . Permeable pavers are typically used in areas that have a high water table, as they help to reduce runoff and prevent flooding. Additionally, permeable pavers can also be used to create a more aesthetically pleasing look for your driveway or patio.
Artificial Grass FAQs
1What type of license must a contractor have to install artificial grass?
The Contractors State License Board (CSLB) requires that all contractors possess a C-27 license or a C-61/D12 license to legally install turf. Some contractors apply for an additional classification with the CSLB and obtain their Synthetic Products license so they can state that they are licensed to install synthetic turf, but this is NOT always true. Experturf Wholesale Inc. has ALL 3; Turf, Paver and Fence licenses - ensuring we will take care of your every need.
2What does the term "face weight" mean?
The face weight of yarn is how much it weighs per square yard, without backing or infill. This lets you know how cost-effective the product is, as long as you're comparing apples to apples. Nylon thatch-based products are usually more expensive than others on the market, even though most artificial turf uses only 28% nylon thatch. Some products contain up to 45% thatch however, which improves quality and durability while also making it thicker. Experturf Wholesale Inc. offers both types of products so you can choose what's best for your needs.
3What does yarn technology mean?
If you're looking for only the best artificial turf, then you need to pay attention to the yarn technology. Yarn shape, stitch rates, and microns per blade all play a role in how beautiful and realistic your lawn will look. Experturf Wholesale Inc. understands this better than anyone else and promises that their artificial turf looks natural while still being able to perform excellently.
4Which artificial turf brand would be best for my project?
At Experturf Wholesale Inc., we understand that not all artificial turf is the same. In fact, there are many different styles and applications for synthetic turf. We can show you all of your options and help you select the best one for your project. If an area sees little traffic, choose quality and beauty over quantity. If it's a moderately busy area or above, then go for a thatch product with more turf density. This will cause less wear-and-tear from grooming and produce significantly nicer yarn.
5Are all turf installations the same?
No, installation quality is not unimportant. In fact, it is very important for aesthetics and longevity. How the subsurface is sculpted, how the edges are addressed, how the product is secured, and most importantly how the seams are put together will affect your experience. An inexperienced crew will likely leave you with noticeable seams that opened up over time. This does not look good and can be avoided by working with a team that knows what they're doing..
