We can use pavers at any place that we want, but only
when we stay determined about appropriate
maintenance, as it is prescribed by the manufacturer.
This is an absolute must because no matter how robust
and hardcore they are declared by the seller, every paver
suffers blows and faster, if not taken care of
appropriately. This statement applies for seriously on
the products used for outdoor paving.

Harming Elements

The unsealed
interlocking pavers are
prone to get stained,
chipped and face the
growth of creepers in the
cracks and edges.
Despite this, the fact is that the pavers are robustly
built and does not require that much of maintenance.
But whatever they require should be offered to them
without fail or delay. In most cases, the outdoor paving
requires occasional sealing and washing on a frequent
basis.

While offering maintenance
firstly, it is important to
determine the material of which
the pavers and retaining block
walls are made up of. Here, it is
worth knowing that the
manufacturers use different
materials like clay, concrete, stone, cement, brick, etc.
The reason why this information is crucial is that
depending upon the material used in the production, the
level of scrubbing them would differ a lot. To clean
them, you require a scrubbing brush (not very hard),
detergent based water.

Sealing the pavers used in outdoor
paving immediately after the
installation decreases the chances of
getting displaced or disfigured.
If your pavers are set in sand, they will
move and readjust for sure and in the
process, if they have chipped away you
need to replace them. Therefore, it is a
wise move to purchase some spare
pavers while buying them. Those laid on the sand have
to be checked on a regular basis for flaws in the design
and because they often sink. If you come across any
such flaw, you can push the sand back to its place.
TIP

The sand available between the joint should be of half
of the height than the original surface.
You can also
purchase sealing
concentration as
it helps in
keeping the
problem at bay
from the outdoor
paving.
The reason why cleaning them is important is that the
bottom of the pieces is hollow and observes oil quickly.
The longer the oil is there, the deeper it would set and
continue to make the stain more and more permanent.
To avert this, you can purchase oil removing agents
from the local hardware shop of the shop that sells
products for retaining block walls.

While buying them, ensure that it is non-acidic as
chemicals and acids can react with several ingredients
used in their manufacturing and slow down the damage
control process. In some cases, they were detected
damaging the pavers even more and therefore, you
should keenly look for those that have more and more
natural ingredients. Weeds development is another
very frequent problem in outdoor paving and to prevent
this from occurring, you can go for weed killers rather
than plucking them. You can also use stone polish to
prevent weeds from growing profusely and protect
them from several other damages.
