The Best Time to Install New Pavers
As soon as Spring arrives the outside of your home quickly becomes a priority. Homeowners flock to their local home improvement stores to pick up items to replenish their landscapes from the harshness of winter. This is also the time where homeowners begin thinking about the outdoor projects they would like to complete this summer. For those looking to install brick pavers, the question, “When is the best time to start a paver installation project?”, often arises. Though technically you can install pavers year-round without concern, there are a few reasons why Spring time is the best time to install pavers.
Temperature
Although a professional crew does not let uncomfortable temperatures prevent them from getting the job done, they can move more quickly if they can avoid bundling up to stay warm or taking more frequent breaks to cool down. Whether you are installing a patio, walkaway, driveway or decorative hardscape, this efficiency leads to a faster project completion timeline and more time for you to enjoy your new pavers.
Stable Ground
With all this weird weather we have been having, Winter doesn’t seem like a foreign word to us Floridians anymore. During the colder winter months (or should I say weeks), frost heaves can cause the ground to shift slightly. For many of us, this small shift goes unnoticed. However, the professional installation crew installing your brick pavers will notice the difference. These minor shifts in the ground can lead to uneven results as the ground thaws and returns to its original position. Though pavers can be installed year-round without issue, there may be weeks where it just isn’t possible due to abnormally cold weather, which can delay the project or halt it altogether. Therefore, your best bet will be scheduling your pavers installation to be completed in the Spring, when the ground is more stable.
Scheduling
Waiting until summer to schedule a masonry project may seem like a good idea until you call to schedule it and all of the contractors are booked through the summer. Many people have the same idea and choose to schedule these types of outdoor projects for the summer months. This is mainly due to the dryer, warmer weather and the ability for homeowners to take vacation time in order to be present during the project. This is a common occurrence every year and can make it difficult to find an available contractor before summer ends. Booking your project during Spring can help you avoid this potential delay to your project.
More Time to Enjoy Your New Pavers
For those of you scheduling a new outdoor living space, scheduling in early spring allows you to use your new space all summer long. The project will begin in Spring and be completed for you to enjoy by the summer. Waiting until summer to schedule your pavers project could cause a significant delay in your plans and leave you with little to no time to fully enjoy your new space.
