| Q. |
Are your pavers suitable for use in driveways? |
| A. |
All of PGH™ pavers can be used in driveways. 50mm pavers are recommended for use in the PGH RIGIDpave™ method (this could be a link to the brochure?). 50mm and 65mm are suitable for driveways using the flexible method.

|
| Q. |
Can I use my pavers around a pool or near the sea? |
| A. |
Not all pavers are suitable for use in marine environments. PGH™ has a large selection of products that are salt safe and suitable for use in these applications.
|
|
|
| Q. |
Can I lay pavers on a steep driveway? |
| A. |
There are some situations where the slope may be too steep for laying pavers, and this can be discussed with your licensed tradesperson.
|
|
|
| Q. |
Are your pavers sealed? |
| A. |
Most PGH™ pavers are sealed with Pavegard™ which helps guard against efflorescence and resists staining.
|
|
|
| Q. |
What is efflorescence? |
| A. |
Efflorescence is simply salt rising from the ground and permeating through the paver to the surface. Once it reaches the surface of the paver it dries is the sun and crystalises.
|
|
|
| Q. |
Can I remove efflorescence myself, or does it require a tradesperson? |
| A. |
This can generally be washed off or swept away. Some commercial products are available to remove but persistence with a stiff brush will generally achieve the same result. Professional tradespeople can also be consulted to remove efflorescence.

|
| Q. |
Can I lay pavers on crusher dust? |
| A. |
It is industry practice not to lay pavers on crusher dust as there can be issues with staining and drainage.
|
|
|
| Q. |
What guarantees do you offer? |
| A. |
There is natural variation in fired clay products affecting colour, texture and other features. We do not warrant that our clay products will match any particular sample or brochure. We warrant that they will be fit for purpose.
|
|
|
| Q. |
How long will the colour last in my pavers? |
| A. |
Because PGH™ pavers are made from clay, once they are fired in the manufacturing process, the colour and strength is there for a lifetime.
|
|
|
| Q. |
What is the minimum amount I can order? |
| A. |
This varies between states because of different packaging configurations, but you can check with Customer Service on 131 579.
