Shanice Lodge

Who is Envirospec?

What is the PAVE-EL pedestal system?

Envirospec’s PAVE-EL Paving Stone Pedestal System

The PAVE-EL pedestal system utilizes pedestals to support paving stones. PAVE-EL pedestals are designed to meet North American climatic and architectural requirements. Key features include:

  • The capability to correct up to a slope of 5 percent
  • Installation directly on all types of flat roof surfaces
  • No lasers or special tools are required for installation

Who is Crosstown Condos?

Crosstown Condos is a townhome development in Toronto’s Don Mills neighbourhood that represents the future of modern urban living. They offer streamlined living with private elevators, detached garages, and spacious backyards.

How does Crosstown Condos use Envirospec’s PAVE-EL Pedestal system?

The beautiful outdoor terraces and patios of Crosstown Condos require a raised pedestal system that can ensure perfect leveling, long-term durability, effective drainage, and performance in all seasons. Most importantly, they are cost- and material-efficient, thanks to Envirospec’s PAVE-EL Pedestal system.

PAVE-EL pedestals are recognized and accepted for use by single-ply membrane manufacturers!

What is the outcome of using Envirospec’s PAVE-EL Pedestal system?

Envirospec’s PAVE-EL Pedestal system allowed installers to use half pedestals along patio edges and quarter pedestals in corners, reducing material requirements. This cut material waste, reduced installation time, and slashed labour costs. The installation was completed in approximately one-third the time compared to traditional systems.
