Recently, we are increasingly meeting paving slabs on the streets of large megacities and small provincial towns. The reason for this phenomenon lies in the indisputable advantages of the tiles over the traditional asphalt coating.
Today, city authorities and private customers are trying to use asphalt less and less, but so far most of the pedestrian zones of the streets are “dressed” in it (about 90%). The main disadvantages of such a coating are an unsightly species in the fall and practically “melting” in the summer heat. In addition, paving slabs can significantly save, and also causes much less damage to the ecology.
Now let us dwell on the advantages of paving slabs more. Firstly, it should be noted that this coating contains a drainage, which allows the water to drain into the drain, and not linger on the surface, forming puddles. Secondly, paving slabs, unlike asphalt, does not melt in the sun in the summer heat. It is important to pay attention to economic benefits from using this type of coating. Everything is a little more complicated here. Obviously, laying tiles costs more than laying asphalt, however, due to durability and unpretentiousness, you can recoup 30-40% of the amount spent on styling, for the entire period of use. Also, when operating this type of coating, it will not be constantly necessary, as in the case of asphalt, to patch holes. And thanks to the wide color scheme, paving slabs allows you to create the appearance of houses and streets for every taste.
