RCP Block & Brick's selection of concrete pavers includes a robust selection of the most popular concrete paver styles and colors available. Concrete Pavers are the ideal solution for driveways, pathways, and patios as their unmatched strength, durability, and flexibility will add beauty to your home for years to come. It has never been easier to create a unique look to your outdoor living space than with the Bella Vista line of concrete pavers.
The Bella Vista Hardscape Collection line of concrete pavers have a greater load bearing capacity than poured concrete. Using a proprietary concrete blend, these concrete pavers are rated at 8,000psi vs the 2,000psi rating of a poured concrete slab. Concrete pavers also allow for expansion and contraction that may occur due to weather or soil shifting. This flexibility prevents cracking which is very common in poured concrete slabs and asphalt. The mortar-less joints between concrete pavers provides excellent drainage. This can has an added benefit of helping prevent erosion due to run-off. Many styles also come with the RCP Limited Lifetime Warranty.
