About this deal

I just jet washed my huge drive, next step is to kill the weeds and then I am looking to fill the huge gaps between the slabs. The paving stones are laid on a sustainable gravel and sand layer in accordance with current standards for paving work. Often where it is a bound surface, Dansand Top Lock® is water permeable and only works if water can drain from the joint quickly.

The joint material is not classified as dangerous according to the Danish Ministry of the Environment’s rules for classification and marking. Combined with the weed-inhibiting mineral in the filling sand, mineral salts will seep into the tiles causing efflorescence. Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH).I contacted Dansand and they said that I probably did not follow the instructions and that they have not had any other complaints and weeds do grow though this product.

You can minimise the formation of moss and algae by ensuring that the joints are always filled to the top with Dansand joint filling sand. It went down ok and looked good, but then it rained which washed some of it out and now two weeks later there seem to be more weeds growing than before. If you have a PayPal account, it is quick and easy to pay for your Charles Watson products using your account and PayPal Express. I know the best case is to re-lay them all on a better base and/or level the entire drive so its flat but this isn't going to happen anytime soon!

Also, the lime and mineral content in the filling material may leave a whitish coating on the paving stones. If a joint has settled or has developed a crack, remove the joint and refill with Dansand Top Lock ® (remember to mix the contents of the bag first). The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) has announced its endorsement of VegTrug, a global leader in raised beds and products designed to help everyone enjoy a grow-your-own lifestyle.

It’s quite hard work to get an even result and a regular household sweeping brush gives a better result than a garden broom. Dansand Top Loc ® is not a weed killer and cannot prevent weeds from sprouting from a preexisting root network. One of the more commonly found jointing compounds, Sika’s Fast Fix for patios, is a little more expensive than Dansand No Grow by weight, with a premixed self-setting formula that will cure to form a solid yet permeable joint. Making sure your block paved driveway is entirely free from any existing weeds and debris, Dansand No Grow can be brushed into the lightly moistened joints between your patio pavers with a stiff broom.The lack of harsh chemicals or curing times makes for a safe, fast and environmentally friendly way to protect any block paved drive for the long haul! The NO GROW mixture consists of washed and dried silica sand as well as nutrient-poor minerals with a high pH value. Seeds will not be able to settle, and ants will not be able to work their way through the hardened joint material. There are two types of weeds: weed seeds that are spread by the wind and weeds that spread through the root system.

Sure, you may need to re-sand the joints every two years as the vibrations from cars or heavy footfall may loosen them over time, but with such a simple brush in application, you’ll have this job done in no time at all! If your substrate is concrete, recycled concrete or wood, it will retain moisture for longer, and Dansand Top Lock® will not be able to harden sufficiently to create a solid joint. The mineral increases the pH-value and the ZAR value of the silica sand, creating an “unfriendly” environment that does not provide nourishment for weed plants. If you persist in cleaning it away, it will eventually fade as the mineral content of the filling material declines.However, since these areas are free from rain, excess salts and minerals from the filling material may migrate to the surface of the joints, causing white efflorescence. To this end, they swallow pebbles, gravel and sand, and Dansand’s silica sand is used as a dietary supplement for smaller birds.
