Concrete Paving, Pavers and Landscaping, Patio Pavers, Driveway Paving and Walkway Pavers

General Care

Sweep regularly your pavers with a stiff bristled broom to keep free from debris. For maximum protection we suggest pavers are sealed after installation with a sealer. During construction, cover the paved areas to protect against damage.

Protect your pavers against possible staining from mortar, oxides, cement and rust. Do not use high pressure cleaning apparatus to clean pavers. In all cases, attempt to clean a stain before it hardens or dries.

If a stain occurs, follow some simple steps: assess type of stain carefully before taking action (incorrect assessment of stain can cause the stain to be more difficult to remove). If the stain cannot be accurately assessed, conduct a trial process on a small portion of stained area to determine most appropriate action.

Product Information

 

Dimensions Policy. Milano, Viltorio, Palazzo, Romani, Bull Nose pavers only

All dimensions given are nominal and subject to manufacturing tolerances. The quoted dimensions of our paving ranges are those normally attained when the slabs are arranged correctly spaced, i.e sizes are given inclusive of joints, which are typically 10mm. This policy enables you to simply plan the area covered and quantities required for your project without having to calculate a separate allowance for joint widths. Avoiding the complication of joint measurements is particularly helpful when planning random layouts. If precise dimensions are crucial, confirm the actual sizes and tolerances by measuring several samples of the product at your local stockist. Our policy is continuous innovation and product improvement. We therefore reserve the right to vary designs and specifications without notice.

Product Colour Variation

Tonal and colour variations are evident in all Premier concrete products and whilst the colours reproduced in this brochure are as accurate as photographic and printing processes allow it is essential that your choice is made from actual materials at your local stockist. Manufactured products are reconstituted stone utilising naturally occurring aggregates, therefore no guarantee can be given that paving manufactured at different times will be identical in colour shade. When using several packs, product from all the packs should be blended throughout the project to produce an acceptable overall natural appearance.

Weathering

It should be appreciated that with all products, natural curing, weathering and site conditions can cause shade variation to appear across the surface of individual paving units. This does not in any way affect the performance of the paving and any such variation will diminish over a period of time as the paving matures. Both natural stone and concrete products are affected by the action of sunlight and rainfall over time.

Pointing

Milano, Viltorio, Palazzo, Romani and Bull Nose pavers only

We recommend that SWEEP-IN-GROUT is used to fill pavings joints and should be completed within a few days of laying. This will provide a more permanent finish and ensure maximum surface drainage. It should be recognised that poor drainage (which includes the sub-base design) may result in water retention which can affect the weathering characteristics of a paved area.

Efflorescence

We cannot take responsibility for the phenomenon of efflorescence which may occur in the form of a deposit and/or apparent colour fading in the form of patches or drip staining. This occasional and naturally occurring phenomenon is inherent in all concrete products with a high cement content and is beyond our control. It sometimes occurs when prolonged wet weather is followed by conditions of rapid drying. However it is in no way detrimental to the durability of the product and gradually disappears as natural weathering takes place.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Pressure washers and chemical cleaners are not recommended for use on our paving and Premier Group NZ takes no responsibility for any damage caused by their application. We recommend thoroughly wetting the paved area with luke warm soapy water, then brushing off with a stiff yard broom.

Health and Safety

Mixing Mortar: Dry or damp cement and wet concrete/mortar can cause irritation and burns to eyes and skin. Suitable eye protection and PVC gloves should be worn when handling these materials. If contact with the skin does occur, wash off with plenty of water. If contact with eyes occurs, irrigate with plenty of water. If irritation/burning persists, seek immediate medical attention.

Cutting: The cutting of concrete, clay and stone products with high speed cutters produces dust. Inhalation of excessive amounts of dust over a long period of time may cause long-term health effects. Suitable eye protection (safety goggles) and respiratory protection (dust mask) should be used when cutting.

Manual Handling: Most of our products are heavy. Some are very heavy. Appropriate handling precautions include wearing protective gloves and footwear and obtaining assistance when moving items weighing over 20kg.

Terms and Conditions

In the unfortunate but unlikely event of products reaching you in less than satisfactory condition, please notify the retailer immediately.
