Paving paths near the house, in the yard and garden! 30 examples for inspiration!

A hard surface in the yard is important from a hygienic point of view. It allows you to keep the yard clean, and it is easier to take care of it: wash, remove leaves, throw snow. Most often, solid paving is used when most of the yard territory is laid out with paving slabs. Paths are laid from the paving in different directions to help get to different areas: garden, auxiliary buildings, shower, bathhouse, etc. Ford-type paving is mainly used to create paths to various objects. The principle of its device is that a gap is left between the individual tiles.
At the same time, for the convenience of movement, the distance should not be more than 30 cm, and the tiles themselves are selected sufficiently large so that the foot fits completely on them. The space between the elements of paths of this type is filled with lawn grass, pebbles, small rubble.
What to make paving and paths out of:
– Paving stones. Thick brick-like tiles easily withstand the weight of the car, so they are used for laying in the parking lot. Paving stones are used to arrange a blind area, a patio area, a path between the gate and the house;
– Concrete molded tiles. Ideal for creating garden paths;
– Flagstone. Flat slabs are integrated into the lawn, combined with crushed stone filling, pebbles;
– Decking. Water-resistant composite material imitating wood. It is laid on a leveled platform, filled with gravel or crushed stone of small fractions. For greater reliability, the decking is sometimes mounted on a crate made of timber;
– Modular coating. Plastic plates with a raised anti-slip pattern, connected by a spike-groove or leg-groove lock;
– Rolled plastic coating. Used to create temporary and seasonal tracks.
It is also possible to make a concrete screed with the prospect that in the future some tile material will be laid on it.
