Segmental hardscapes offer appeal and worth that other pavements cannot match. It is difficult for any concrete or asphalt to compete with the look and feel of brick. It is impossible for any stamped concrete to match the inherent beauty of natural stone. And the good news is that if properly installed by skilled craftsmen, this beauty will last far longer than any poured-in-place surface can offer.
By its nature, a segmental hardscape system is the best solution to frequent freeze-thaw cycling. (A common misperception is that segmental pavements are ill-suited for this sort of climate when in fact it is agreed by knowledgeable engineers and architects to be the very best, but only when installed properly).
Unit pavements are the most durable pavement surface. For example, a concrete paver has three times the pounds-per-square-inch (PSI) compressive strength than poured-in-place concrete. This allows for pavers to receive a plow to clear snow without any difficulty.
The re-sale return of a segmental pavement is one of the highest in the real estate industry. Additionally, unit pavers offer that certain "curb appeal" that immediately attracts any potential buyer.
They are virtually maintenance free.
Segmental pavements are quickly set, allowing for immediate pedestrian and vehicular access, important to streetscaping or similar developments. There is no need for concrete to cure or asphalt to harden.
With any need, such as underground utility work, unit pavers are removed and reset instantly. Unsightly "spot patches" are avoided, allowing for a quick, aesthetic and uniform pavement presence.
Many architects turn to unit pavements to deliver that special "sense of place".
