Interlocking Pavers – All You
Need To Know
• Sometimes you notice settling in areas of your interlocking pavers
• This can be really worrisome. For areas of your interlocking pavers to settle, it
is most likely the compaction is insufficient. This is even common on sites
where the pool or the house is freshly built and backfilled. The probability is
therefore high that these backfilled soils were not adequately compacted
before being used on your home or swimming pool. This is even more likely
when the ground underneath your paver has been inappropriately filled
after being dug up.
• You could also notice that water is pooling up on the interlocking
pavers
• This to a large extent takes the attraction off the interlocking pavers with
even associated health dangers. Now if water is collecting on your
interlocking pavers, two things must have likely gone wrong. First, the
installation was carried out at the wrong pitch thus it is now plagued with a
low spot. Secondly, the problem could be that the compaction was
inadequate hence with time, it has experienced settling.
