Permeable pavers are a great option to consider for a patio, walkway, or driveway. Unlike a traditional concrete, permeable pavers allow the rain water to quickly infiltrate between the paver joints into the ground below, minimizing rain water runoff which is a big environmental impact. The key to preventing drainage problems is to build with permeability in mind, which is what “Living with Water” is all about. New Orleans and its surrounding areas such as Metairie, Kenner, the Westbank, Northshore and in Chalmette, are all at risk of urban flooding and rely on our city’s drainage pumping systems to keep us dry. The more rainwater runoff that leaves our properties is the more that the city must pump out and putting us more at risk.

Permeable pavers come in all sorts of shapes and colors that will greatly enhance the look and stormwater management performance at your home or business.
