Since we began using Eterno Adjustable Paver Supports last fall, we’ve been very impressed with the ease of installation, which in turn has benefited us greatly by reducing our labor costs. In addition to the labor cost savings, compared to the other adjustable paver supports on the market, we’re very pleased with the self leveling head, which is a major advantage when adjusting the pavers. The unique adjustable key allows for adjustments without removing the pavers. Other paver supports do not have this feature and are more cumbersome and labor intensive.
Another benefit is the new bi-component head of soft rubber which reduces any noise when walking on the pavers and helps ensure no movement of the pavers. The Eterno Adjustable Paver Support system has given us an effective edge over our competition with the ease of installation and the savings on labor cost. We’re very pleased that we came across this product."
