10 Common Signs That It’s Time For New Paver Stones
It is very important to pay attention to the condition of your paver stones. It’s better to be preventative and address any issues as quickly as possible. The longer any problems linger, the greater the chance they’ll lead to more problems and expenses. Therefore, we’d like to share with you our professional advice on what to look for as you inspect your pavers. At the very least, you’ll want to take some time every week to walk around and thoroughly inspect your premises with these tips.
#1. Cracks
No matter how much maintenance you do, you cannot prevent cracks 100%. Being outside and exposed to nature and the elements will cause wear and tear on anything over time. As soon as you notice any large cracks, it’s best to replace that paver stone.
#2. Potholes
Driving over these on the road is a painful reminder that you should not allow them to be present in your installations. The major problem with potholes is that they allow water to accumulate and cause more damage. Replace and repair them right away.
#3. Drainage Issues
Speaking of water, if you notice any water forming on, under, or around your pavers, you need to be alert. Seek professional help to determine the cause and replace whatever needs to go.
#4. Bad Appearance
Over time, your pavers will look eroded and damaged. There is nothing wrong with appreciating their weathered and rustic beauty. However, if they start to look too dirty, grimy, or in a way that displeases you, it’s time to go out with the old and in with the new.
