Pavers

A patio, walkway, or driveway has to do more than look good on installation day. The paver you choose affects how the space feels underfoot, how it fits with the home, and how well the surface holds up to regular use outdoors.

Batchelder & Collins supplies concrete, clay or brick, and porcelain pavers for projects in Norfolk and Williamsburg. Our team can help you sort through the materials, styles, and finishes available for the type of space you are building.

Choose a Paver Based on the Space You Are Building

Each paver material brings a different look and set of practical advantages. Starting with the project itself can make the decision easier.

Concrete Pavers

Concrete pavers work across a wide range of patios, walkways, and driveways because they come in many shapes, colors, patterns, and finishes. We carry paver lines from Hanover and Techo-Bloc, giving homeowners and contractors options for both traditional and more contemporary hardscape designs.

Clay and Brick Pavers

Clay and brick pavers bring natural color and a traditional masonry appearance to patios, paths, driveways, and landscape details. Because the material is fired rather than surface-colored, clay pavers are a good fit for projects where lasting color and a classic brick look are priorities.

Porcelain Pavers

Porcelain pavers create a more refined, uniform surface for patios, pool areas, and outdoor living spaces. Their low-porosity surface also makes them useful in areas where moisture, staining, and regular cleaning are part of the design considerations. Porcelain selections are available by special order.

Match the Material to the Demands of the Project

The same paver is not automatically the right choice for every surface. A residential walkway has different demands than a driveway, and a pool area calls for different considerations than a garden path.

Common applications include:

• Patios: Concrete, clay, brick, and porcelain depending on the design
• Walkways: Concrete or clay pavers for defined paths and entrances
• Driveways: Pavers selected for vehicle traffic and the planned installation system
• Pool areas: Materials chosen with moisture and surface texture in mind
• Landscape accents: Clay or brick pavers for borders, edging, and smaller hardscape details

The base beneath the pavers also plays a major role in the finished surface. Proper excavation, grading, compaction, and installation help keep larger projects stable through regular use and changing weather conditions.

Plan for Coastal Virginia Conditions

Outdoor surfaces in Norfolk and Williamsburg deal with humidity, heavy rain, temperature changes, and frequent moisture. Material selection and installation both matter when a hardscape will be exposed year-round.

Concrete, fired clay, and porcelain each handle outdoor conditions differently, so the project location and intended use should guide the choice. Our team can help explain the differences between the paver products we carry so you can select material that makes sense for the space.

Maintain the Finished Surface

Regular cleaning can help patios, walkways, and driveways stay looking cared for as dirt, organic growth, and everyday wear build up.

We carry cleaners and sealers through our hardscape accessories selection. The right product depends on the paver material and the type of maintenance the surface needs.

Why Contractors and Homeowners Work With Batchelder & Collins

When the patio or walkway needs to work with existing brick, stone, or landscaping, sourcing the materials through one masonry supplier can make those choices easier to coordinate.

Batchelder & Collins has supplied masonry and hardscape materials since 1868 and remains a fifth-generation family business. We work with both homeowners planning residential projects and contractors sourcing materials for larger jobs in Norfolk and Williamsburg.

She was amazing and took me all around the yard showing me all the things. I was looking for a custom size fire pit, and she really went the extra mile to help me find the paver that I needed to use for the fire pit, I am just a DIY homeowner not a contractor and she was really able to steer me in the right direction and working with her was so easy. I got an amazing price on the pavers. They were available very quickly.
