Troy pavers sit against brick and brownstone — Washington Park courtyards, Pottery District patios, and Sycaway driveways on steep, north-facing grades.
Hillside runoff pushes joint sand downhill, and the city's shaded, damp microclimate lets moss establish in walkway joints within a couple of seasons.
A pressure wash alone does not fix any of that. Once the joint sand is gone, the pavers lose their interlock and start moving — and every rainstorm carries more of the base away. Our restoration is a multi-day process: clean, blow the joints out to depth, install fresh polymeric sand, compact it in with a vibratory plate, then seal. That sequence is what makes the result last in Troy instead of failing by the next spring.
