Remove Weeds Growing on Pavers – Lake Zurich, IL
Blurred Lines
Tired of Weeds Coming Back Between Your Pavers?
Weeds growing between your patio or walkway pavers are more than just an eyesore—they’re a sign that your paver joints are breaking down. At Peter’s Paver Restoration, we help homeowners in Lake Zurich, IL (60047) and surrounding Lake County areas eliminate weed growth from brick and stone paver surfaces, and more importantly, keep it from coming back.
This isn’t about lawn care or flower beds. We specialize in restoring the clean, tight joints between your pavers so your patio stays neat, strong, and weed-free for the long haul.
Why Weeds Grow Between Brick or Stone Pavers
When you see weeds coming up between your pavers, it usually means the sand between those joints has eroded or broken down. That creates tiny gaps—perfect spaces for airborne seeds, moisture, and sunlight to turn a crack into a weed bed.
You’ll start noticing green shoots growing in between the bricks or stones.
Those weeds may begin to spread down walkways or around the edges of driveways. At the same time, your joint sand might feel soft or look worn away, especially after heavy rain. Once that happens, ants often move in too, displacing the sand even more and weakening the structure of the patio.
You can pull weeds, spray chemicals, or pressure wash them away—but if those joints stay exposed, the weeds will be back before you know it.
Our Targeted Weed Removal and Joint Restoration Process
At Peter’s Paver Restoration, we don’t treat this like a landscaping problem. We approach it as a structural one.
We begin by clearing out all weeds and cleaning the joints thoroughly—down to the base layer if needed. Then we refill the joints with polymeric sand, a specialty sand designed for paver systems that hardens after it’s activated with water.
This sand forms a tight, durable bond that helps prevent weeds, ant tunnels, and erosion. If you’d like, we can also apply a protective sealant over the surface to lock in the results and guard against moisture or staining.
The outcome is a clean, smooth patio or walkway that looks better and functions the way it should, without constant weeding.
Why Homeowners in Lake Zurich Call Us for Weed Problems
Weeds growing between pavers aren’t the same as garden or lawn weeds. They’re a sign that your patio joints have failed. And while many homeowners try pulling weeds by hand, using vinegar sprays, or blasting them with a pressure washer, those methods only remove the visible growth, not the cause.
At Peter’s Paver Restoration, we rebuild your paver joints using professional tools and materials made specifically for outdoor surfaces. That means fewer weeds, better joint stability, and a longer-lasting result.
When Should You Schedule Weed Removal Between Pavers?
If you’re seeing weeds between your pavers—especially during spring or summer—it’s best to act fast before they spread or take root deeper. The sooner the joints are cleaned and refilled, the easier it is to keep the surface looking clean. Late spring through early fall is the ideal time to complete this work.
Weed removal is also a great first step before scheduling paver sanding or sealing, as part of a full restoration.
