Brick Paver Maintenance

Why did I  have pavers installed 5 years ago and now I have problems with settling and shifting?

• Poorly compacted sub-base and/or bedding sand.
• Not deep enough base material or wrong base material for soil type.
• Improper pitch causing water to pool in one or more areas.

Cracking or Scaling of Brick Pavers

• Using cheap brick pavers that are made with poor materials.
• Using rock salt for de-icing.

Spreading of Brick Pavers

• Loose or inadequate edge restraints.
• Poorly laid brick patterns that do not consistently break bond lines.
• Using the wrong jointing sand which washes out frequently.

What are some of the benefits to sealing brick pavers?
By sealing brick pavers it will enhance the brick paver color and protects the pavers from fading, making older brick pavers look new again! Sealing also stabilizes the joint sand so washout will not occur.
