PAVER MAINTENANCE
MOST SURFACES MUST BE REPLACED, SUCH AS CONCRETE AND ASPHALT, BUT RE-LAYING OF BRICK PAVERS AND NATURAL STONE CAN BE DONE IN CERTAIN CASES.
RELAYING:
Settled or raised pavers by correcting base problem, and reinstalling evenly for proper water drainage and recompacting.
Pavers can usually be taken up and re-laid, rather than substituted altogether.
RESANDING / REMORTARING:
Utilizing a brush between the pavers with jointing sand or mortar in stone to firmly restrain weeds or moss from germinating back.
- Replacing some pavers necessitates blending the old and new ones together in an optimal way to reduce the contrast.
- To keep the sides of pavers or stone in place, it is usually necessary to change the PVC edging.
- Re-utilisation of stone is only possible if it has not been affixed with mortar. Therefore, we normally suggest Polymeric sand as an alternative to concrete to fill the spaces between stones.
POWER WASHING:
If your pavers and stone are heavily dirtied, have accumulated chemical or fuel stains, and have grown over with moss, power washing them thoroughly will help to bring out their original color, presenting a neat and polished look.
WHEN IT IS TIME FOR MAINTENANCE?
IF YOU OBSERVE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING ISSUES:
Settling and water ponding in different places.
Grass growing in cracks.
Crumbling or degradation and discoloration of old pavers.
Lacking or lifted PVC edging (shifting or settling of pavers at the edges suggests this issue).
