From a small disabled access ramp to a flight of steps, PIC offers the following benefits:

No Loosening - For safety it is important that steps do not move when you use them. Over time, block paving is prone to sinking and spreading leading to a loosening of individual blocks and a potential slip or trip hazard. As PIC forms a solid base with fibre-mesh reinforcement, there is no risk of this.
No Weeds - The gaps within block paving and indian stone attract moss and weeds, requiring regular treatment. With nowhere for weeds to get a foothold, PIC can be kept weed free with just a simple brush and / or wash with a hose pipe or pressure washer.
Incredibly Versatile - Let your imagination run wild with curves and cobbled or different coloured edges. Any shape or size can be achieved in a mix of colours and patterns.
Added Style / Features - Add a touch of class with embedded LED uplighting or safety with the addition of handrails for disabled access. PIC can accomodate such features easily.

Pattern Imprinted Concrete

PIC gives long lasting colour, pattern and texture with the added benefit of durability and a virtually maintenance free finish. To see why Northern Cobblestone recommend PIC, take a look at our Alternative to Block Paving and Indian Stone page.
