Pine Hall Brick Offers PaverScape® Visualizing Software

Words: Tim BambrickPine Hall Brick has introduced PaverScape® Visualizing Software, a program that enables landscape designers and their customers to see what their finished patio, walkway or driveway will look like with clay pavers in place before work begins.

Available for free from Pine Hall Brick and its distributors nationwide, the software uses a digital photograph of the project as the starting point. Some distributors can do a design on the spot, or may have free PaverScape® CDs available for the customer to take home with them. In addition, many landscaping design firms have a copy of the software, or can get one from Pine Hall Brick. If a copy isn't available in your area, contractors or homeowners can contact Pine Hall Brick.
