FAQ

The time it takes to finish your project depends on its size, complexity, and location. We must also take into account factors such as whether your property has machine access, and whether we need to remove previous landscaping.

In phase one of our approach, and after you've used our interlocking calculator, we will send a project manager to examine your project in detail. Once we have all the information, we will provide you with a specific timeline. This timeline becomes part of our written agreement so that there are no surprises

The only way to prevent shifting and cracking is to pay special attention to your base. Our crew specializes in preparing your base for maximum durability.

For concrete, we use ¾ crushed concrete that is watered down and compacted.

For interlocking stone, we use mostly ¾ crushed gravel, with a top layer of limestone screening for leveling.

Of course, there are many other factors involved, but the rest comes down to your property and specific project needs.

Polymeric sand offers several advantages over brick sand, including less shifting, fewer weeds, and reduced water washout.

Unlike brick sand, it has an adhesive quality that stops the seepage of water below the bricks when properly used. This creates a dryer base that is less susceptible to shifting or settling under heavy traffic and loads.

Although polymeric sand is more expensive than brick sand, it provides long-lasting benefits that keep your interlocking stone project looking great for years to come.

While rare (we take every measure to prevent them), there may be instances where a stone may shift, especially within the first year. If this happens, all you need to do is pick up the phone and contact us. At Green Side Up Contracting, we're committed to you and your project, and believe in protecting your investment.
