Newcastle Paver Patio & Walkway Repair Services
Hey there, Newcastle homeowners! 🌿 Are your pavers starting to resemble a bumpy adventure trail rather than a smooth patio? If your outdoor spaces are dotted with uneven surfaces, gaps, or unsightly moss, it’s time to roll up our sleeves and give them some love! At Neat & Tidy, we specialize in lifting, relaying, and re-grading paver patios and walkways, ensuring everything drains properly, stays secure, and keeps you and your guests safe from trips and falls!
What’s the Problem?
Let’s break down the common culprits behind your paver woes:
- Sunken or heaved pavers caused by Newcastle’s chilly winters and clay soils—yikes!
- Trip lips & loose bricks from washed-away bedding sand.
- Puddling near your home due to improper grading or runoff into garden beds.
- Edge failure—those plastic borders have given up, and your pavers are wandering off!
- Moss, weeds, and pesky ants thriving in open joints because your polymeric sand has long vanished.
How We Fix Pavers (the Right Way)
Here’s how we’ll get your pavers back in tip-top shape—step by step:
- Inspect & Map Issues — We’ll carefully assess drainage, slopes, tree roots, and settled areas to pinpoint the problems.
- Lift & Sort — We’ll gently remove pavers, keeping the original pattern intact and setting damaged pieces aside for repair.
- Repair the Base — We dig out any soft spots and replace them with compacted crushed rock—no more pea gravel!
- Reset Grade — Using concrete sand, we’ll ensure water drains away from structures at the right angle (about ⅛–¼” per foot).
- Relay Pavers — We’ll meticulously put everything back together with tight joints and staggered seams, perfectly matching your existing pattern.
- Edge Restraint — We’ll secure borders with new edging or a concrete toe to keep them in place.
- Compact & Set — Using a plate compactor, we’ll set everything in place and top off the joints for a polished look.
- Polymeric Re-Sand — We’ll broom in, vibrate, and clean up with a blower before misting to activate the sand.
- Drainage Options — Need better drainage? We can add channel drains, catch basins, or French drains—whatever it takes to keep things flowing smoothly!
- Clean & De-Moss — A gentle rinse, safe moss treatment, and efflorescence cleaning will leave your pavers looking fresh and clean.
We don’t just cover up problems! If tree roots are causing issues, we’ll prune them or reroute the path instead of just hoping for the best!
