Stamped Concrete or Pavers? How to Decide

Key takeaways

  • Stamped concrete is one continuous surface
  • Pavers can be lifted and repaired by section
  • Both need a good base
  • The Finish Matcher helps narrow the look

Stamped concrete and pavers can both give a patio or driveway a high-end look.

Stamped concrete

It is a single slab, so it has few joints for weeds to grow in, and the pattern and color are built in.

Pavers

Individual pieces can be lifted and replaced, which makes some repairs easy, but joints need upkeep.

What they share

Both depend on a good base and good drainage. Neither will last on poor ground.

Narrow it down

The Finish Matcher asks a few questions and suggests finishes that fit.
