Key Steps in Interlock Restoration
Cleaning
First, the surface is cleaned to remove dirt, debris, moss, weeds, and stains. This might involve pressure washing or using specialized cleaning products.
Joint Sand Replacement
The sand between the pavers (usually polymeric sand) may have eroded or washed away. Reapplying new sand—and in some cases, polymeric sand—is an essential part of the restoration process. This helps to stabilize the pavers and prevent further shifting.
Resealing
After the surface is cleaned and sanded, a sealant (like a polymeric sealer) may be applied. Sealing helps protect the pavers from stains, weather damage, and wear. It also enhances the color and appearance of the pavers.
Paver Leveling or Repair
If any pavers are sunken, uneven, or cracked, they may need to be leveled or replaced. In some cases, a full re-laying of the pavers may be necessary.
Weed and Mold Prevention
Weeds and mold/moss often grow between pavers. Weed removal and applying weed preventers or anti-mold treatments are key to keeping the pavers looking good.
Resurfacing or Replacing Pavers
If some pavers are cracked or damaged beyond repair, they will need to be replaced with new ones, or the area might be resurfaced with fresh materials.
Benefits of Interlock Restoration
Restores the appearance of weathered or dirty paver surfaces, bringing them back to like-new condition.
Polymeric vs. Regular Sand: Which Is Best for Your Pavers?
Polymeric Sand:
Benefits:
- Prevents weed growth and ant nests by hardening into a solid, impermeable surface.
- Resists erosion from wind, rain, or foot traffic, keeping the pavers firmly in place.
- Stays in place better during rain or washing, preventing sand from washing away over time.
- Helps prevent shifting or settling of pavers due to its solidifying properties.
Ideal Use:
Regular (Unsterilized) Sand:
Benefits:
- Easier to install and generally cheaper than polymeric sand.
- More flexible in areas where you may want the sand to settle or shift naturally over time.
- Better for non-permeable applications like paths or areas with little to no foot or vehicle traffic.
Drawbacks:
- Prone to erosion: Rain, wind, and foot traffic can easily wash the sand away, requiring more maintenance.
- Weed growth can occur, as there’s nothing to bind the sand and block plant growth.
- Less stability: Pavers are more likely to shift or settle.
Key Differences
Resin Jointing Compound: A Durable Alternative for Paver Joints
Resin-based jointing sand (also known as resin jointing compound or resin-bound sand) is a specialized product used for filling joints between paving slabs or blocks. It’s an alternative to traditional sand or cement mortars, offering durability, weed resistance, and ease of application.
