Finish – the last step, but definitely not the least!
Once the pavers have been carefully placed into the sand bed, Systems Paving’s hardscape specialists will complete the finishing steps to ensure your new driveway stones, walkways, patios or pool decks will last for many years to come.
Hardscape Specialists will:

  • Gently force the paving stones into the sand bed, using a specially designed plate vibrator.
  • Apply another layer of sand on top of the compacted pavers, and carefully sweep it into every crack and crevice. This special sand, and its correct application, ensures equal spacing so that your interlocking paving stones will not move or bunch up together. The nibs on the sides keep the paving stones spaced properly.
  • Compact the pavers again, using the plate vibrator. This step is essential as it forces more sand into the joints and creates the interlock process, transforming the surface into one solid unit, giving it the strength to easily support nearly any weight you're likely to put upon it.
  • Clean up. Systems Paving’s courteous crew will thoroughly water the work area gently to further compact the sand into the joints. We further hose down the area to clean off the sand that doesn’t make its way into the spaces and gets pulverized into dust. This also allows us to verify that the grades were properly set, hence no puddling.
