How does Descanso's climate affect this service?
Descanso sits at ~3,400 ft elevation on SR-79 between Alpine and Pine Valley with 20-25" annual rainfall, frequent freeze nights in winter, and dense forest canopy. Mountain moss on north-facing wood siding, organic growth on shaded decks, and pine-debris cleanup dominate the work.. Mountain pavers collect pine sap, pollen, and the occasional moss spot in shaded corners.
What is polymeric sand?
Jointing sand mixed with a dry polymer. You sweep it into the paver joints dry, then mist it to activate, it sets semi-hard, resisting weeds, ants, and erosion. Done right it lasts 5 to 10 years. Done wrong (on a wet surface, or over-watered during activation) it hazes the paver tops.
Will cleaning wash out all my joint sand?
Some, yes, and that's expected and necessary on a re-sand job.
