3 Ways You Can Keep Your Pavers Looking Great

Every year, we all end up going through the same tedious process of cleaning up our pavers. It’s surprising how bad they can end up looking when not taken care of for some time. Bedrock Industries is an Orlando pavers company that would like to share several tips that will help prevent your stones from collecting dirt, removing any weeds, and helping you enjoy your home’s outdoor space.

 

  • Polymeric Sand: No one wants excessive amounts of weeds between their patio stones. A great solution is polymeric sand, as it prevents weeds and bugs from being present between the stones. Before applying, however, you must eliminate any existing weeds.
  • Wet and Forget: This is a recommended product that uses surfactants, along with the natural cycle of rain and sun, to clean the surfaces. The procedure is simple as it just requires you to mix with water and spray your patio. However, patience is key as the changes will be apparent over time.
  • White Vinegar: White vinegar is a natural alternative to weed killers to remove your patio’s weeds. A good method would be to mix white vinegar with one teaspoon of dish-washing soap and put it in a spray bottle. This mixture will stick on the weeds and cause it to break down. Moreover, a good time to spray would be between 12 to 3 in the afternoon as the sun will help the vinegar be absorbed.

Combining these three tips will guarantee you spotless and clean pavers. Cleaning and polishing your stones doesn’t have to be done in just the spring or summer.
