Adding polysand to our #paverpatio
What happens here
The next phase involves the application and careful distribution of polymeric sand. Workers are shown stripping open bags of polymeric sand and spreading it generously over the entire paved surface. Following this, large push brooms are used to meticulously sweep the sand back and forth, working it into every joint and gap between the pavers. The narrator emphasizes that this is the "most tedious part of this entire project," requiring "hours of just sweeps" to ensure all joints are thoroughly packed and filled with sand.
Goal: Thoroughly fill all paver joints with polymeric sand.
