Calculate Square-Footage:
Measure the dimensions of the area to be resurfaced and calculate the total square footage. Be sure to add extra to the
measured square footage to allow for scrap and to have a few extras on hand in case of future damage.
Calculate Amount of AZEK Paver Product Required:
A unit of AZEK Pavers includes eight (8) pavers and one (1) 16.0” x 16.0” grid. The unit covers 1.78 square feet. To calculate
howmanyunitsareneeded,dividethetotalsquarefootageofyourprojectby1.78.

MAINTENANCE
Most stains, bird droppings, etc. can be cleaned using a garden hose. Tougher, embedded debris can be cleaned using a
high-pressuresprayerandamilddetergent(similartothatusedforcleaningyourcar).NOTE:Becarefulwhenusingahigh-

Choose Pattern:
AZEK Pavers can be installed in a multitude of different patterns and combinations. Designs can include small and large
repeating patterns. Some example patterns are provided below:
IMPORTANT: At least one paver must connect two grids in each direction. The herringbone pattern does this without need-
ingtospeciallyorientatethegrids.Hereishowthegridsmustbeorientatedtoassureoverlapinalldirectionsforother
patterns:
Herringbone:
This is the most popular and easiest to install pattern.
Pavers will interlock grids in both directions.
•Laytheinstallationgridsasillustratedatright.
•Startlayingpaversatthestartingcorner.
Basketweave:
This is the simplest installation method for a Basketweave
pattern, but it will require extra installation grids. (Visit
azekpavers.com/patterns to learn how to install without
extra grids)
•Thestartingpavermustbelaid4”downand4”
over from the top left corner of the grid. This
will shift the pattern over and assure at least
one paver will connect two grids in both
directions.
•Theleftovergridcaneitherbetrimmedoff,
ora4”bordercanusedtollinthe
extra space.
Running Bond:
This pattern will require the staggering of grids to assure
the pavers will connect them in both directions.
•Thestartingpavercanbelaidinthetopleft
corner, but the next column of grids must be
staggeredhalfwaydownthestartingrow.
Everyothercolumnwillneedonehalfgrid
at the top.
•Eachhalfofthecutgridcanbeused.
CUTTING INDIVIDUAL GRIDS AND PAVERS
•Usetherecommendedcuttingequipment(seepage1).Formoreinfo,visitazekpavers.com/cutting.
