FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to wait before driving on my new concrete or interlock driveway?

For concrete driveways, we recommend waiting at least 7 days before driving a standard vehicle on it to allow for proper curing. For interlocking stone, you can typically drive on it immediately after the jointing sand has been swept and compacted, though we suggest waiting 24 hours if a liquid sealer was applied.

How do you prevent my driveway from sinking or shifting over time?

The secret is in the base preparation. We perform deep excavation and use high-density crushed stone that is compacted in layers. This creates a stable foundation that resists the natural movement of Ottawa's clay and soil, ensuring your driveway remains perfectly level through every season.

Will weeds grow between the stones of my interlock walkway?

We use high-performance polymeric sand to fill the joints between stones. When activated with water, this sand hardens to act as a durable barrier that resists weed growth and prevents ants from settling in, while still remaining flexible enough to handle thermal expansion.

Can my driveway be widened or customized during the installation?

Yes! We specialize in custom layouts. Whether you want to add decorative borders, create a flared entrance for extra parking space, or integrate matching walkways that lead to your backyard, our team can design a configuration that maximizes both utility and beauty.

How do these surfaces handle snow removal and salt in the winter?

Our surfaces are built for Ottawa's climate. We recommend using plastic-edged shovels or snowblower blades to protect the finish. While our materials are salt-resistant, we suggest using calcium chloride or sand for traction during the first winter to protect the "new" surface while it reaches its maximum density.
