Concrete & Porcelain roof pavers have been popular recently for freeing otherwise wasted space. Now you can have functional and attractive roof pavers that have level surfaces for secure foothold. These places can now be used for various uses, such as for a green roof. These are energy-efficient roofs that have become recently popular due to its feature of providing cooler environment in heat-producing areas such as rooftops and plazas. With these, one of the most popular paving solutions is the roof pedestal system. The system elevates, levels the walking surface and also uniformly spaces the pavers for healthy air flow and proper drainage for water.
Decking Pedestals
Our Deck Pedestal Supports are designed for porcelain pavers, IPE Deck Tiles or concrete ballasted pavers to level over a built up rooftop decks. It could have either a concrete or wooden substrate structure with a roof membrane over the top. The pedestal system has 7 pieces for the simpler standard type along with a 4.215 inch OD diameter PVC pipe to be supplied by the user. The PVC pipe allows the system to have varying heights that may reach up to 36+ inches high. The spacer on the upper cap is provided for a proper alignment of the pavers and for an open joint for water drainage.
Roofing Pedestals
All our Pedestal Paver System products, including our standard and hybrid adjustable pedestals, create level rooftop decks over sloped surfaces. Tile Tech pedestals elevate and support Wood Tiles, Concrete Pavers, Porcelain Pavers, and a variety of other surfaces when sophisticated, commercial grade decking is required.
Low Height Pedestals
New improvements on the pedestal system are continuously developed and some of these are the new stack-able caps that provide for minute height adjustments compensating for different slopes. New designs for the caps also feature built-in self-leveling and spacer tabs for joint alignment and proper paver spacing. Many of these systems are simple enough to be user-installed when preferred.
Pedestal Configuration
Adjustable Pedestal
The PVC pipe allows the pedestal system to vary in heights up to 36+ inches. The standard 1/8” spacer on the top cap allows for an open joint for water drainage and proper alignment of the pavers. In application where low heights from ½” to 2’ high is needed, the Stack-Cap can be used and also include slope compensation for a level paver surface. Additional top shims are also available for fine height adjustments and corner leveling

Pedestal Components
The “press fit” connection of the top and bottom cap to the PVC pipe requires no gluing or other attachments. Both the wedge top shims and round bottom shims can be used for “fine tuning” proper height if required. All top shims and bottom shims lock into place, and all six pieces (if used) interlock, allowing no paver movement and a level surface. The round bottom shims have a unique “V” groove, which allows them to be scored & broken in half with a utility knife and stacked on the bottom for those areas that are sloped more than 2%. They lock to each other and to the bottom cap to impede movement of the pedestal. The subsequent weight of the paver will keep the system in place. The caps can be easily removed during installation if desired.
