Polymeric Sand Reapplication

Fresh polymeric sand is essential for a stable, weed-free patio. Our professional application ensures proper filling, activation, and long-lasting performance between paver joints.

🔒 Why Polymeric Sand Matters

Unlike regular sand, polymeric sand contains binding agents that harden when moistened, creating a solid, flexible joint that locks pavers in place and prevents weed growth.

Hardens to prevent washout
Inhibits weed germination
Deters ants and insects
Stabilizes paver structure
Resists erosion from rain

🎯 Our Application Process

Proper installation is critical for polymeric sand performance. We follow manufacturer specifications and industry best practices for optimal results.

Remove old sand completely
Clean joints of debris
Dry surface application
Vibrate sand into joints
Precision water activation

🎨 Sand Colour Options

Choose the perfect shade to complement your pavers. The right sand colour can dramatically enhance your patio's overall appearance.

Beige/Tan - Natural look, hides dust
Grey - Modern appearance, matches concrete tones
Charcoal - Dramatic contrast, contemporary style
Ivory/White - Bright, clean aesthetic

⏳ When to Reapply Sand

Watch for these signs that your polymeric sand needs replacement to maintain your patio's integrity and appearance.

Weeds growing between pavers
Sand washing out during rain
Pavers becoming loose or shifting
Ant hills appearing in joints
It's been 3-5 years since application

Uneven patios aren't just unsightly—they're trip hazards that worsen over time. Our re-leveling service lifts sunken areas and restores proper drainage for a safe, beautiful surface.

⚠️ Common Causes of Sinking

Understanding why your patio sunk helps prevent future problems. We identify the cause and implement proper solutions.

Improper original base preparation
Base erosion from water flow
Organic material decomposition
Buried debris settling
Frost heave and thaw cycles

Individual sunken pavers
Sections along patio edges
Low spots with water pooling
Areas near downspouts
High-traffic worn sections

✅ Quality Assurance

We don't just level—we ensure the repair lasts by addressing the underlying cause and using proper materials and techniques.

Proper slope for drainage
Adequate base depth (6-8 inches)
Quality HPB or screenings bedding

Professional Sealing & Protection

Sealing is the finishing touch that protects your investment and extends the life of your restoration. Choose from matte or wet-look finishes for the perfect final appearance.

🛡️ Benefits of Sealing

Quality sealant creates a protective barrier that guards against stains, weather damage, and fading while enhancing your patio's appearance.

Prevents oil and grease absorption
Protects against UV fading
Resists salt and de-icer damage
Makes cleaning easier
Extends paver lifespan

🎨 Finish Options

Choose the look that matches your style. Both options provide excellent protection—it's all about the aesthetic you prefer.

Matte/Natural Finish - Preserves original look, no sheen
Wet-Look/Gloss Finish - Rich, enhanced colour depth
Colour-Enhancing - Deepens natural tones
Joint-Stabilizing - Hardens sand, prevents washout

🧪 Premium Sealant Products

We use professional-grade sealants specifically formulated for Ontario's climate and interlock pavers.

Water-based and solvent options
Breathable formulas prevent trapping moisture
UV-resistant additives
Low-VOC environmentally friendly choices
3-5 year protection duration

📅 Sealing Schedule

Timing matters for optimal results. We recommend sealing after restoration and maintaining on a regular schedule.

Seal after new installation or restoration
Reapply every 3-5 years
High-traffic areas may need more frequent care
Best applied in dry conditions (spring/fall)
Avoid sealing in direct hot sun

Edge Restraint Repair

Edge restraints are critical to patio stability. When they fail, pavers loosen and the patio begins to spread. Our repair service restores the structural integrity of your patio's perimeter.

⚠️ Signs of Edge Problems

Catching edge restraint issues early prevents more extensive repairs. Watch for these warning signs around your patio perimeter.

Pavers spreading outward at edges
Gap developing between patio and restraint
Edge pavers becoming loose
Visible damage to plastic edging
Spikes or anchors pulling out

🔧 Repair Solutions

We assess the damage and implement the appropriate repair, from simple spike replacement to complete edge rebuilding.

Replace damaged plastic edging
Install heavy-duty commercial edging
Secure with proper spike spacing
Add concrete edge bond if needed
Restore proper alignment

🧱 Concrete Edge Bonding

For problematic edges or heavy-use areas, we offer concrete edge bonding— a permanent solution that locks the perimeter in place.

Poured concrete haunch along edge
Locks perimeter pavers permanently
Prevents spreading under load
Ideal for driveways and heavy traffic
Clean, professional appearance

🌿 Edge Landscaping Integration

Sometimes the area around your patio contributes to edge failure. We can address these issues as part of the repair.

Proper grading away from edge
Drainage correction
Remove vegetation pressure
Install decorative border if desired
Recommend edging plantings

Patio Renewal FAQs

Common questions about patio restoration services.

How much does patio renewal cost compared to replacement?

Professional renewal typically costs 60-70% less than full replacement. While a new patio installation might run $15-25 per square foot, renewal services average $5-10 per square foot depending on the services needed. We provide detailed quotes after assessing your specific patio.

How long does the renewal process take?

Most patio renewal projects are completed in 1-3 days. Simple cleaning and sand applications may take just one day, while projects requiring extensive re-leveling or repairs might take 2-3 days. Sealing requires 24-48 hours of curing time before furniture can be placed back.

Can you match new pavers if some are damaged?

In many cases, yes. We can often identify the original paver style or find a close match from current manufacturer lines. If exact matching isn't possible, we can source complementary pavers for accent areas or borders, turning a limitation into a design feature.

When is the best time for patio renewal?

Spring and fall are ideal for patio renewal. Spring cleaning prepares your patio for summer enjoyment, while fall restoration protects it through winter. Sealing should be done when temperatures are consistently above 10°C with no rain expected for 24 hours after application.

How long will the results last?

With proper care, professional renewal results last 3-5 years before significant maintenance is needed. The cleaning and re-leveling are permanent improvements, while polymeric sand typically lasts 3-5 years and sealant protection lasts 3-5 years depending on traffic and exposure.

Is sealing necessary or optional?

Sealing is optional but highly recommended. While your patio will look much better after cleaning and re-sanding alone, sealing provides significant protection against stains, UV fading, and weather damage. It also makes ongoing maintenance much easier and extends the time between professional services.

Will pressure washing damage my pavers?

When done correctly with appropriate equipment and techniques, pressure washing is safe for interlock pavers. We use commercial surface cleaners and adjust pressure levels specifically for paver surfaces. Our experienced technicians know how to clean effectively without causing damage to pavers or joint sand.

Can you fix patios with significant sinking?

Yes, most sinking issues can be corrected. Isolated low spots are relatively straightforward to re-level. Even widespread settling can often be addressed section by section. In rare cases of severe base failure, we may recommend partial reconstruction, but we'll always discuss all options and provide honest recommendations.
