Normandy Park Paver Patio & Walkway Repair Services
Hey there, fellow Normandy Park residents! 🌲 If your pavers are more reminiscent of a wavy ocean than a flat, inviting patio, it’s time for some much-needed TLC. Those uneven surfaces, pesky gaps, or mossy patches aren’t just unique aesthetics—they’re signs of underlying issues like a failing base or poor drainage. At Neat & Tidy, we specialize in lifting, relaying, and re-grading paver patios and walkways to ensure they drain properly, fit snugly, and keep your ankles safe from trips!
What’s Going On with Your Pavers?
Here’s a peek at the potential issues plaguing your pavers:
- Sunken or heaved pavers: Blame our chilly Normandy Park winters and clay-heavy soils.
- Trip lips & loose bricks: Caused by washed-away bedding sand that’s gone AWOL.
- Puddling near the house: A result of incorrect grading or runoff into your cherished garden beds.
- Edge failure: That plastic edging has popped out, and now your borders are off-roading.
- Moss, weeds, and ants: Thriving in open joints because your polymeric sand has vanished.
How We Fix Pavers (the Right Way)
Our meticulous step-by-step process will have your pavers looking fresh in no time:
- Inspect & Map Issues: We’ll dive deep into examining drainage, slopes, tree roots, and settled zones to pinpoint the problems.
- Lift & Sort: We’ll carefully remove pavers, keeping your original pattern intact, and set aside any damaged pieces.
- Repair the Base: Soft spots? No problem! We dig them out and replace them with compacted crushed rock (no pea gravel here!).
- Reset Grade: We’ll screed concrete sand to ensure water drains away from your structures at the perfect angle (⅛–¼” per foot).
- Relay Pavers: We’ll put everything back together with tight joints and staggered seams, matching your existing pattern flawlessly.
- 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 lock everything in place and top up the joints.
- Polymeric Re-Sand: We’ll broom in, vibrate, and clean up with a blower before misting to activate the sand.
- Drainage Options: If needed, we can add channel drains, catch basins, or French drains to enhance site drainage.
- Clean & De-Moss: A low-pressure rinse, safe moss treatment, and efflorescence cleaning will leave your pavers looking brand new.
We don’t just mask problems. If tree roots are creating chaos, we’ll prune or reroute instead of crossing our fingers and hoping for the best!
