Frequently Asked Questions

While it is not mandated by code, Bison REQUIRES the use of metal Level.Up Paver Safety Backers when installing 2CM outdoor porcelain pavers. 2CM porcelain pavers are around ¾ of an inch thick versus thicker concrete pavers or wood tiles. The Safety Backers are glued to the back of the 2CM paver using polyurethane adhesive. Their purpose is to provide breakthrough protection if the paver breaks or cracks. They also provide added impact resistance and support.
