Paving Beneath Downpipes and Gutters

When it rains, water flows from the building’s roof down through the gutters and downpipes. While this system helps displacing water from a roof, the common area for concern is the paving beneath these downpipes and gutters. The water streaming from the downpipes and gutters washes out the sand between your pavers. Over time, this can result in a paving installation failure. The displacement of sand between pavers is a common occurrence at commercial and residential properties.

What Happens When the Jointing Sand Has Been Washed Out?

  • The pavers will shift and move and the paved system might fail completely.
  • Constantly refilling the gaps between your pavers can become a costly and frustrating experience.
  • Replacement of pavers with other materials will lead to all kinds of other problems.
Paving beneath downpipes and gutters has led to jointing sand being washed out.

The Solution

Sealing the pavers and jointing sand with Resiblock will prevent the sand from being washed out. This will essentially create a waterproof surface whilst “bonding” the jointing sand together, ensuring the sand stays intact even under the pressure of water displaced by downpipes and gutters. This is a very simple, yet well documented “fix” for this common problem.
