Mission: Create a "Green" driveway and parking area stable enough for emergency vehicles.
Mission Specialist: Helm's Seeding & Sodding
Mission Location: Private Estates near the Louisville, Kentucky area
Mission Duration: Approximately 4 days, start to finish!
The owners of this private estate were looking for an environmentally friendly solution to provide them with temporary access and parking. Using asphalt or concrete could have worked but would have been very expensive. With the help of the local Midwest Construction Products in Louisville, a time tested, reliable solution was implemented.
GRASSY TM PAVERS provide soil stabilization, natural water filtration and drainage, assistance in storm-water management objectives, lower temperatures, reduced soil compaction, reduced need for expensive drainage systems, and are cost effective. This was the solution that was right for this project and right for the surrounding environment!
This particular project was approximately 12000 square feet and completed using a 4 step process. First the contractor had to prepare the sub grade material by leveling it off. This is very important to insure proper paver installation. After the sub grade has been worked the GRASSY TM PAVERS are then placed, connecting each section together using their interlocking connection tabs. The third phase of this installation is to fill the cells with a sandy loam topsoil material. This helps strengthen the pavers and provides a great drainage medium.
The last step is to lay the sod. GRASSY TM PAVERS provide over 97,000 pounds per square foot of support, so once the project is complete it is ready for just about any traffic you can imagine. 
Amazing concrete driveways, now I could say that this is something unique
