DriBond®: A Revolutionary Polymer-Modified Dry Mud‑Set Patented Worldwide

DriBond® is a patented formula specially designed for the overlay of thin pavers (1 in or 30 mm) or natural stone over existing concrete. With DriBond®, there is no need to remove the existing concrete substrate, which is a costly and time-consuming process. DriBond® is a polymer-modified bonding agent that installs like sand and sets like cement.

Homeowners now have that ability to transform an old concrete driveway, pool deck, or patio into a hardscape masterpiece within one to two days. DriBond® makes the installation of pavers possible for a fraction of the cost needed to tear out existing concrete and replace it with a traditional sand-set paver installation.

Concrete removal is costly and time-consuming and can damage sprinkler systems, underground utilities, and other infrastructure. With DriBond®, thin pavers can now be installed directly over cracked, unsightly concrete driveways or other surfaces, transforming them into hardscape masterpieces.

The DriBond® system also inhibits the growth of grass and mold and eliminates the need for long-term maintenance and repairs. Millions of square feet of thin pavers have been installed utilizing the DriBond® technology.

Installs Like Sand, Sets Like Cement

Every decade or so, a miracle product comes along that disrupts and changes an industry forever. DriBond® is that disruptive technology, and we look forward to telling you more about it.

“Tim Berry and his professional staff helped us come up with a beautiful landscape plan, and then they went above and beyond our expectations. Our home has more value now—adding pavers to our home—and has proven to be a very smart investment. We are so happy. Thank you, to the guys at PaverLoc and Seal Rite Pavers.”
