These include:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As our paver supports have a dual component that includes both an anti-slip and an anti-noise head, they are extremely helpful in reducing the sound of impact. What does this mean for you? Well, if you have a lot of people coming and going in and out of the home, using floating pavers helps to reduce the noise pollution.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Environmental factors are a fundamental factor that causes wear and tear in natural pavers and tiles over time. Extreme cold makes stones contract, while extreme heat causes expansion. When pavers are installed directly onto the surface, there is no allowance for them to move as freely which can cause them to crack and become damaged with too much exposure to the elements. Using pedestal systems for paving slabs means that the floor is floating and thus independent of adhesion. This allows for an ease in structural movements and also eliminates the risk of debonding due to improper installation and\/or tile movement.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n PAVE-EL Pedestals ensure that your project is sustainable and long-lasting, as it can bear the heavy load of different pavers.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n With environmental consciousness on the rise, many are extremely aware of their carbon footprint. So, if you are interested in reducing your impact on the environment, consider using a paver system. Why? Well firstly, it\u2019s entirely recyclable and secondly, because it doesn\u2019t need to be fixed to a substrate with an adhesive, no chemicals are released into the ground. It\u2019s really a win-win-win for everyone involved.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As the pedestals create space between the pavers and the ground surface, this allows for constant air circulation. Consequently, this improves the heat insulation while simultaneously protecting the ground surface from UV degradation and extending the lifespan of the waterproofing.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Pressed for time and funding for your outdoor flooring project? Floating pavers to the rescue! Since the pedestals themselves are easy to adjust and you don\u2019t need to level the surface, you can simply start your project with minimal (if any) site preparation and without disrupting any nearby projects.<\/p>\n Additionally, with the minimal installation products required, pedestal systems offer a lightweight solution to building floors. Subsequently, this translates to a lower project cost and higher savings for you.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As PAVE-EL allows for the tiles and pavers to be placed atop the pedestals, this means that pavers can be easily removed and changed.
