Interlock — install, removal & re-lay

Interlock fails when the base does. Most contractors skimp on the granular — we don't. Pavers also need re-laying every 15–20 years; we do that too.

What we do differently

Built to last, not to ship.

The cheap version of this work isn't really cheap — it's deferred. Here's what we don't cut.

  • 01

    8-inch granular A base, compacted in 2-inch lifts

  • 02

    Bedding sand screeded flat, never thicker than 1 inch

  • 03

    Polymeric jointing sand on every install

  • 04

    Edge restraint on all sides

  • 05

    Re-lay service: lift, re-grade base, re-set existing stones

FAQ

Common questions

  • Two reasons: regular sand was used instead of polymeric, or the polymeric has aged out (5–10 years). Solution: blow joints clean, re-poly, water in, done.

  • Base failure. Either it was undersized, or water got under it and froze. Re-lay = lift the stones, re-base properly, re-set. Most stones are reusable.

  • Interlock costs more upfront but lets you fix one stone if you stain it. Concrete is faster and cheaper but cracks travel. Both last decades installed correctly.
