Does sealing pavers make them slippery?

Q: How long do driveways last?

• <div><p>Driveways last 25 to 50 years, but you&rsquo;ll notice cracks and possible missing pieces during this time. Regular maintenance, such as filling cracks, reapplying sealer, and ensuring that water does not erode the base material, can help extend the lifespan of your driveway. Gravel driveways should be regraded to fill in uneven areas every year or two, depending on how frequently it is needed.</p></div>

Q: Does repaving a driveway increase home value?

• <div><p>Yes, repaving a driveway increases a home&rsquo;s value, but the extent to which it increases depends on the materials, design, and overall market conditions in your area. Additionally, if your existing driveway is already in good condition, then repaving it won&rsquo;t yield as much of a value increase as it would if your existing driveway is in poor condition.</p></div>

Q: How do the pavers stay in place?

• <div><p>The layer of polymeric sand under the pavers plus the polymeric sand that gets swept into the joints between your pavers holds them in place in a few ways. For one, the gritty texture of the sand helps lock the pavers together. Polymeric sand also contains bonding agents that get activated by water. Polymeric sand will take between 24 and 48 hours to fully cure, so do not walk on your paver walkway before this time.</p></div>

Q: How thick should sand be under pavers?

• <div><p>There should be a 1-inch thick layer of sand underneath your pavers in order to provide a proper base.</p></div>

Matt repaired some settling on our pool deck pavers and coping that was installed by our original pool builder. He came back 12 months later to do some further adjustments as part of his 3 year warranty.

We love our natural retaining wall and paver area. These guys suggested the wall and design to stop water from rushing to the side of our home. The designed solution works well and we are happy with the service.

Marvin from Magic Landscaping and Hardscapes gave me an excellent quote for a Landscape Light pole replacement. We agreed on a time and date, but when inclement weather threatened that date, they worked around and completed my task early. The work was done, and it exceeded my expectations.
