🌿Top Reasons Why Your Paver Installation Fails
🌿Top Reasons Why Your Paver Installation Fails (and How to Avoid Them)
A paver patio, driveway, or walkway can add beauty, value, and functionality to your home. Poor planning, shortcuts, or lack of expertise often lead to paver projects that don’t last—and fixing them can be costly. At IGL, we’ve seen it all, and we’re here to share the top reasons why paver installations fail—so you can avoid these mistakes and enjoy a space built to last a lifetime.
1. Poor or No Base Preparation
The base is the foundation of your pavers. Skipping excavation, not removing enough soil, or failing to compact the base properly leads to sinking and uneven surfaces.
2. Inadequate Drainage
Without proper drainage, water will pool under your pavers, causing shifting, erosion, and weeds. Sometimes with inadequate grading, the water can pool towards your house (instead of daylight away from your property). Hiring an experienced, licensed contractor can help you to avoid this mistake.
3. Lack of Edge Restraints
Without proper edge restraints, pavers slowly spread and separate, ruining the clean look of your project. It is also common for the edge restraints to be installed incorrectly. Incorrect installation can also lead to pavers failing.
4. Uneven or Insufficient Compaction
Improper compaction during installation leads to settling and trip hazards. Compact each lift to 95% compaction rate to avoid pavers creating sink holes or improper drainage.
5. Incorrect Sand Use
Using construction or beach sand instead of proper bedding or polymeric sand causes pavers to shift and joints to wash out. Using the proper materials is essential for a long-lasting paver installation.
6. Ignoring Load Requirements
Driveways, patios, and walkways all require different base depths depending on expected weight. If these aren’t considered, pavers will crack or shift.
7. Poor Cutting and Layout
Sloppy cuts or failing to plan the pattern properly leave uneven gaps, weak spots, and a less professional look. Cutting the pavers too small can also lead to a paver system failing.
8. Hiring the Wrong Contractor
Many failures come down to poor workmanship or cutting corners to save time and money. Hire a licensed, experienced paver installer like IGL Pavers to ensure your pavers will last a lifetime.
✨ Thinking about a new paver project? Let’s do it right the first time—contact IGL today to start your outdoor transformation.
Remember…
Hiring a licensed contractor in California isn’t just about following the law—it’s about protecting your home, your money, and your peace of mind. Take the time to research, verify, and sign a solid contract before any work begins.

🍁🍂🎃 What Sort of Maintenance Do Pavers Need?
🍁🍂🎃
What Sort of Maintenance Do Your Pavers Need?
When installed correctly, pavers should last a lifetime. They require little maintenance and are a stunning alternative to the bland concrete options. If you maintain your pavers each year, they will hold up their color, enhance your curb appeal, and perfect for entertaining. Contact IGL to schedule your annual paver maintenance today!
1. Regular Cleaning 🌻
Why it matters:
Dirt, leaves, moss, and debris can build up on pavers over time, leading to stains, slippery surfaces, and weed growth.
What to do:
Sweep regularly to keep the surface clear.
Use a garden hose or a pressure washer for deeper cleaning every 4 - 6 weeks.
For stains (oil, food, rust), use a paver-safe cleaner based on the stain type.
Contact IGL for a FREE estimate on cleaning your pavers today!
Tip: Avoid harsh chemicals like bleach, which can discolor your pavers.
2. Weed and Moss Control🌾
Why it matters:
Seeds can get stuck in between the joints of pavers through wind, rain, storms; normal acts of God. Overtime, these seeds can germinate and grow to weeds if your pavers aren’t maintained properly. Be careful when pressure washing your pavers - you don’t want to get to close to the joints, you could dislodge the joint sand which results in damaging the interlocking bond of the pavers. And can lead to more weeds growing in between the joints.
What to do:
Apply weed killer or pull weeds by hand.
Hose down or pressure wash your pavers every 4 - 6 weeks to keep seeds from germinating in between joints.
Trim nearby grass and plants to reduce seed spread.
3. Re-Sanding the Joints
Why it matters:
Joint sand helps lock your pavers in place and keeps them from shifting. Don’t fill your joint sand too high - that can damage the surface and look (color) of the pavers.
What to do:
Refill the joints with sand as needed, especially after heavy rains or power washing.
Use polymeric sand for better weed and erosion resistance.
Contact IGL if you have questions about troubleshooting your joint sand and what may be causing weeds to constantly grow in between your pavers.
4. Sealing the Pavers
Why it matters:
A good sealer can enhance color, protect against stains, and reduce wear from weather and foot traffic.
What to do:
Seal your pavers every 2–3 years, or as recommended by the manufacturer.
Choose the right sealer: matte, semi-gloss, or high-gloss, depending on the look you want.
Clean thoroughly before sealing and apply in dry weather.
Contact IGL today to clean and seal (or re seal) your pavers today!
5. Repairing Shifts or Cracks
Why it matters:
Pavers can shift due to ground movement, erosion, or improper installation.
What to do:
If a paver becomes loose or uneven, it can often be lifted, the base leveled, and the paver reinstalled.
Replace cracked or severely damaged pavers individually without needing to redo the entire area.
🏞️ Final Thoughts
With just a bit of regular attention, pavers can stay beautiful and functional for decades. A clean, well-maintained paver surface doesn’t just boost your home's aesthetics — it also protects your investment. Think of paver maintenance like car maintenance: a little effort now prevents bigger problems (and costs) later.

🍁 Is Your Backyard Fall-Ready?
🍁 Is Your Backyard Fall-Ready?
As summer winds down and the crisp air of autumn begins to roll in, it’s the perfect time to turn your attention to your backyard. Fall isn’t just about pumpkin spice and cozy sweaters — it’s also one of the best seasons to enjoy the outdoors before winter settles in. Whether you’re planning weekend bonfires or simply want a peaceful spot to sip your morning coffee, preparing your outdoor space now can help you make the most of the season.
Here’s a quick checklist to help you get your backyard fall-ready:
1. Clean Up Summer Debris
Start by clearing out any dead plants, fallen leaves, or clutter left over from summer activities. Trim overgrown shrubs and cut back any perennials that need it. This not only freshens up your yard but also prevents pests and mold from taking over.
2. Prep Your Lawn
Fall is a crucial time for lawn care. Aerate your soil, fertilize, and overseed if needed. Cooler temperatures and increased moisture make fall ideal for growing strong, healthy grass roots.
3. Add Fall-Friendly Plants
Swap out summer annuals with autumn favorites like mums, ornamental kale, pansies, and asters. You can also plant bulbs like tulips and daffodils now for a spring surprise.
4. Cozy Up Your Outdoor Seating
Bring out warm throws, add cushions in autumnal colors, and consider adding an outdoor rug to make your patio or deck feel inviting. Don’t forget weather-resistant covers if you want to protect your furniture during wetter months.
5. Light the Way
Shorter days mean you'll need extra lighting. String lights, lanterns, or solar-powered path lights can instantly add ambiance and keep your yard functional after dark.
6. Fire Pit Ready?
Fall and fire pits go hand-in-hand. Check that your fire pit is clean and safe to use. Stock up on firewood or propane, grab some marshmallows, and you’re set for cozy nights outdoors.
7. Outdoor Kitchen or Grill Maintenance
If you have an outdoor kitchen or grill, give it a deep clean and cover it when not in use. You might not be grilling every night, but fall is still a great time for hearty meals outdoors.
8. Contact IGL to help with fall maintenance on your property!
Contact IGL today to start your monthly maintenance so your home is ready season after season. Click the maintenance tab above to check the rates for your address today!
🍂 Final Thoughts
Getting your backyard fall-ready doesn’t require a massive overhaul. With a few thoughtful updates and seasonal touches, your outdoor space can become the perfect autumn escape. So grab a flannel blanket, light the fire pit, and enjoy everything fall has to offer — right in your own backyard.
