Polymeric sand is a paver jointing material that’s used by many hardscape experts. It provides optimal joint stabilization and prevents weed growth and insect infestations.
What is Polymeric Sand?
Polymeric sand is a material used to fill paver joints, which are the empty spaces found between each paver, tile, or natural stone. It’s also called jointing sand, paver sand, or hardscape sand.
Jointing sand is made up of fine grains, to which manufacturers add a mixture of specific additive particles. When combined with water, this substance acts as a powerful bonding agent that strongly binds together concrete elements.
Polymeric sand is used by paver installers because the joints that you create from it are durable and even. This eliminates any risk of weed growth and ant infestation that could affect the overall aesthetics and durability of paver projects.
Why choose polymeric sand?
Increased Durability
The mixture of sand grains and additive particles forms a powerful binding agent that securely holds together concrete pavers and other hardscape installation materials. Since it’s more durable and resistant to erosion than conventional jointing products, polymeric sand significantly increases the life expectancy of any installation.
In addition, paver joints created from the use of this material do not crumble or decompose. This means that sand remains in the paver joints rather than in the house or at the bottom of a pool.
No More Weeds or Ant Infestations
Because it holds paver installations together better than conventional jointing materials, polymeric sand is a very bad environment for weeds and pest infestations such as ants. Due to this, paver joints are less likely to age or erode prematurely.
Color Options
Previously seen as only structural, paver joints have now become an important part of landscaping design, with added interest being put on the aesthetic value that they can bring to hardscape installations.
Quick and Easy Installation
In addition to providing unparalleled jointing performance, the application process of polymeric sand is fast and easy. Know that you will always have the best results when you hire us. We guarantee it!
