Half-brick pavers like these are cost less than whole bricks and give a longer-lasting, lower-maintenance than concrete and stone-look concrete. Similar to full bricks, they're also eco-friendly made of natural materials as well as they are recyclable.

Thin Paving Bricks

Thin paving bricks, or brick veneer, will have an average cost of about $4 per square foot. Being a decorative option instead of a structural one, as the pavers are too thin to withstand heavy foot or vehicle traffic unless they're laid over a stable concrete slab.

Concrete Pavers

Concrete pavers will have an average expense of around $5 per square foot, with a price range of $3 to $7 per square foot.

However, you can pay up to $25 per square foot for sought-after stone, like tumbled granite brick. Flagstone will set you back up to $15 per square foot, and marble costs up to $20 per square foot.

The more exotic the distance the stones are sourced from, the more you'll pay per square foot, as the materials are exceptionally heavy and expensive to move.

Slate-Concrete Pavers

Slate pavers typically cost $12 per square foot, and range from $7 to $16 per square foot. Slate pavers are concrete with a slate look and are stronger than real slate. This type of material is the closest you'll get to real slate on a patio, driveway, or walkway, as real slate isn't strong enough for heavy foot traffic or vehicles.

Interlocking Pavers

Interlocking pavers will have your investment around $4.50 per square foot and range from $3 to $6 per square foot. Interlocking pavers feature ridges that let them slot together easily and make them less likely to shift or pop out of place over time. The interlocking pavers allow for custom designs and shapes. You'll find many interlocking pavers that let you create a unique patio or driveway design to boost your home's curb appeal.

Permeable Pavers

Permeable pavers vary in cost, because any paver system can be built to allow permeability. Interlocking pavers, for example, are often designed to allow water to flow through and underneath the surface into a drainage system, such as a French drain. In this case, the rain water runoff is often directed to a ditch, pond or aquifer.

Grass pavers are naturally permeable, as the rain simply passes through the grass thanks to the open cell structure of the paver the grass is growing in.

Rubber and composite pavers are also porous. Rubber is a controversial choice because of concerns over toxins leaching into the ground and contaminating the earth as it degrades. When choosing keep in mind that neither rubber nor composite is as long-lasting as the other options.
