Do you wet the sand before laying pavers?

• <div><p>Yes, you should lightly wet the sand with a hose before laying the pavers on top. This activates the bonding agents in the sand, ensuring that your pavers don’t shift around during the installation process. However, you should make sure that the sand is not soaked; overwatering can cause the sand and pavers to not set properly.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to put anything under pavers?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll first need to install a base underneath your pavers for extra stability and drainage. Otherwise, the pavers can sink into the ground, and you&rsquo;ll have to reinstall them. Use a base gravel layer of 4 to 6 inches for walkways and 10 to 12 inches for driveways. Compact your gravel layer every 2 to 4 inches so it&rsquo;s nice and solid. After you install your gravel base, apply a 1-inch layer of sand on top. </p></div>

Q: How often do pavers need to be resealed?

• <div><p>Pavers should be resealed at least once every three to five years.

Consider resealing pavers whenever you notice stains or discoloration beginning to form.</p></div>
