The nice thing about pavers or tiles is that when inevitably the ground moves, or a trees roots grow, you just take out the 20-30 pavers that you need to change, flatten it and put them back in rather than having to deal with breaking out the concrete and re-doing the whole surface. But it does require proper soil, compaction beforehand
Thanks for the tour, excellent edit. My favorite bit is the stacking machine nudging the last row into perfect alignment at 7:30. I do not recognize the host and, not hearing an introduction, paused to check what channel i was on
I always love watchng a video of a concrete products manufacturing facility. In my career, I used a lot of factory produced concrete products (manholes, concrete pipe culverts, bridge pilings, precast bridge deck panels, box culverts, parking stops, concrete pavers/blocks, etc.....and the list goes on). And like Scott, I love concrete!
Alright bro, if you don't tell anyone I came up here with my eyes closed, I'll give ya a couple sample pallets of block, mmkay?! You bet, thanks! .............
Very impressive to see how they've used technology to improve their processes and product! I would never have guessed that they would bang their pavers around to give them a worn look, nor did I expect it to be such a controlled process. They've definitely done their homework.
Wearing gloves when handling concrete pavers is a smart move. I was talking to an old fella about how paving is hard work and he observed "it sure is, but at least you can take a break unlike with laying concrete"
Just think of all the time we spent thinking we could save money by making pavers at home in a mold. Now we know-you get what you pay for!

I was always wondering why in the US sidewalks are poured concrete instead of these. In Europe, just about any surface that has utilities underneath is made from these blocks that can be picked up and re-used whenever you need to access anything underneath. When the work is done, there is no obvious patch and everything looks as good as new.
I was wondering the same thing. Looked that way from the initial pictures. Yep - looks like the owner, Wyatt Pegg, has spoken at Halsey Mennonite Church in Halsey, OR for a stewardship conference for Anabaptist Financial so there's at least some connection there.
Seeing how they are made gives a new appreciation for the product - thanks for sharing!
Handled concrete blocks, bricks and papers for 5 or 6 yrs thick callous on my hands then. Kids never wanted a spanking

This is a high production value video. Very nice.

yeah , the nudge was pretty cool.

Pavers are used a lot more than concrete where I live, but I've never known how they're made - very interesting!
Great job guys. Thank you 😊
Amazing family owned alchemy. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the awesome video and all of the amazing content!!!
Dutch people are the paving kings
Shout out from lower Alabama to the Pegg family. I grew up with your Callaway cousins in ca.
"Pavers, when installed properly, can outlast / outperform concrete / asphalt"
The Dutch be like: no sh*t sherlock ;)
@9:52... I'm sure you didn't need that dry line anyways!
Only an hour away here in gresham or never knew so many things made so close
Thanks for a great video
0:18 that is a brave statement! …as soon as you drive on those pavers.. they are gone!
Eyes wide SHUT! Lol 😮
Very cool!
Fantastic video! Appreciate the amount of work that goes into making these. #familyowned
You should tour Willamette Greystone in salem

Great self control by Collin and his fear of heights!
Thats where my money goes!
I took it that running a vibratory machine over the pavers would settle them in instead of having to pound them.
Ouch on that string! It happens....
Is this a Mennonite family?

Another video of your son plugging a company and getting free crap.
Shut up you whiny child.

Hi, I'm EC'S boy and I'm here for as much free stuff as I can get for the house built from free materials that I don't want to pay for.
