Cobblestone, the New Do It Yourself Driveway Paving Stones

Lindsay ~ 1 May 2005

Cobblestone has long been a popular look, but the expense + hours it takes to install it (not to mention digging up your old cement driveway) hasn’t always made it a popular choice with do-it-yourself homeowners. Cobble Systems is prepared to change that. They create an interlocking carpet of stone that installs almost instantly and looks like real cobblestone. You can lay it down over your existing driveway, and it’s even available in different patterns that vary from straight lines to fans to circular patterns.

Cobblestone is a common name for a product called porphyry. Porphyry is a type of volcanic, igneous rock which, along with granite and other rock formations, makeup approximately 95 percent of the worlds “crust.” These rocks are the result of intense volcanic activity begun over 260 million years ago. Highly valued for its appearance, Porphyry natural stone pavers have been used for paving since ancient times. Many of these roads, plazas, and walkways are still used today.
