Collection: Paving Supports

Paving Supports are essential components for creating level and stable surfaces in various outdoor settings, such as patios, decks, and walkways. The category includes a range of products designed to facilitate the installation and maintenance of paving stones and decking.

Types of Paving Supports

1. Decking / Paving Risers: These are versatile supports available in various sizes to accommodate different thicknesses of paving materials. They are perfect for creating a level surface on uneven grounds.
2. Paving Support Shims (e.g., RPS Paving Support Shim 150mm): These thin pieces are used to make minor adjustments in height to ensure an even paving surface. Ideal for precise levelling, they are available in multiple sizes.
3. Paving Pedestals (e.g., RPF Adjustable Fixed Head Paving Pedestal): These adjustable supports are designed to hold paving stones at a desired height. They are particularly useful in situations where a significant elevation change is required.
4. Heavy Duty Support Pads (e.g., RPS-HD15 Heavy Duty Support Pad): These are designed for higher load-bearing applications. They are robust and can support heavier paving materials.
5. Protective Rubber Mats: These mats, typically placed under paving supports, protect waterproof membranes from damage and provide additional soundproofing and stability.
6. Rubber Support Pads (e.g., RPS9 Rubber Support Pad): These pads offer cushioning and noise reduction for paving projects. They are also useful for minor height adjustments.
7. Low-Height Paving Supports (e.g., RPS-10mm Low-Height Paving Support): Designed for situations where only a small elevation is needed, these supports are ideal for low-profile applications.
8. Slope Correctors (e.g., Paving Pedestal Slope Correctors): These products are used to compensate for ground slopes, ensuring a level surface for paving.
9. Paving Spacing Tops: These are used to maintain consistent spacing between paving stones, ensuring a uniform appearance.

10. Decking / Paving Riser Slope Correctors: Similar to pedestal slope correctors, these are specifically designed for decking applications to manage slopes.

     

Choosing the Right Paving Support

When selecting paving supports, consider the following:

• Application: Determine if the support is for decking or paving as some are specifically designed for one or the other.
• Load Requirements: Assess the weight of your paving materials to choose a support capable of handling the load.
• Height Adjustability: Consider supports with adjustable height features for uneven surfaces.
• Material Compatibility: Ensure the supports are compatible with your chosen paving or decking materials.

• Environmental Factors: If installing in an area with potential for moisture or temperature changes, select materials that are durable and resistant to these conditions.

   

Conclusion

By understanding the different types of paving supports and their specific applications, you can make an informed decision to ensure a successful and durable outdoor paving project.
