Benefits of Interlocking Stone
There are many reasons why homeowners prefer interlocking pavers over other alternatives. These include:
- Strength
Interlocking pavers are an architectural marvel. This paving solution works by laying down a pattern of stones in which one stone is interlocked with the other, with a gap deliberately left within the interlocking pattern. These gaps are filled with joining materials such as sand, increasing the friction between any two pavers and adding strength.
- Damage resistance
Stone pavers, while being strong, are also extremely flexible. If water collects or freezes under these pavers, they are able to bend and adjust. This helps avoid unwanted cracks or fissures and makes it more durable for heavy loads and usage.
- Fast installation
Interlocking stone pavers can be laid out quickly and without much hassle. It takes approximately 5 steps to lay down an interlocking paver, and despite the easy installation, they are very strong.
- Low maintenance
Maintaining stone interlocking pavers is a surprisingly easy task. They can be cleaned by simply hosing them down with water. They can become remarkably clean if they are hosed down with high-pressure water.
- Look and unique appeal
Interlocking pavers can lay out various designs, styles, and patterns and allow people to express their unique style.

Choosing the Perfect Interlocking Stone for Your Ottawa Driveway
With a wide variety of interlocking stone materials, shapes, sizes, and colors available, selecting the right one for your Ottawa driveway can feel overwhelming. Here's a breakdown of factors to consider to ensure you choose the perfect interlocking stone for your needs:
Material
-
Brick Pavers: A popular choice for driveways and walkways, brick pavers are known for their durability, low maintenance, and timeless aesthetic. They are available in a variety of colors and patterns to complement any architectural style. However, brick pavers can be slippery when wet and may require more frequent maintenance than other options.
Shape and Size
The shape and size of your interlocking stones can significantly impact the overall look and function of your driveway. Here's a guide to consider:
​
-
Larger stones: Create a more modern and sophisticated look. They are easier to install but may leave larger gaps that require more filler material.
-
Smaller stones: Offer a more traditional look and can be used to create intricate patterns. However, they take longer to install and may require more maintenance to keep filler material in place.
Colour
The colour of your interlocking stones should complement the exterior of your home and the overall landscape design. Consider factors like sun exposure and stain resistance when making your choice.
​
-
Lighter colours: Reflect heat and can help keep your driveway cooler during hot summer months. However, they may show dirt more easily.
-
Darker colours: Can hide dirt and stains better but may absorb more heat and contribute to higher summer temperatures.
If you're feeling overwhelmed by the options for interlocking driveways in Ottawa, don't hesitate to reach out to us. Our experts can guide you through the selection process, ensuring you choose the perfect materials, shapes, sizes, and colors to meet your needs and preferences.

FAQs
Here are answers to some common questions about interlocking driveways:
What Is Interlocking?
Interlocking is a type of pavement made of many interlocking pavers connected with their shapes or through a base material. It is a popular driveway and walkway landscaping material that offers endless design possibilities and is durable and easy to repair. It can be made from cement, concrete, or stone and customized in a variety of colours, shapes and patterns. It is a modular form of paving that can simulate the effects of a cobblestone path.
How Can Interlocking Stones Increase the Value of My Home?
Interlocking stones can help increase the resale value of your property. If you’re renovating your home to sell it, a fabulous new interlocking driveway or pavement can instantly improve its curb appeal. It can give potential buyers the first impression they need to agree to your desired asking price. You can even add a patio with interlocking stones to boost the appearance and value of your property. They are a more environmentally friendly and sustainable option than asphalt.
Why Are Interlocking Pavements More Resistant to Heavy Loads and Pressure than Traditional Pavements?
Because interlocking is created with individual stone or bricks, it can transfer loads and stresses by spreading the load over a larger pavement area. This allows it to support heavier loads and traffic flow and last longer than other alternatives. Though it may be more expensive than traditional paving, it is way more durable, easier to repair and requires fewer replacements and maintenance through many years of use.
