FAQs

How long does Dansand No Grow Brush Paving Sand last?

The weed-inhibiting effect can last for many years, depending on environmental conditions and proper application.

Can I use this sand on all types of paving?

It is compatible with flagstones, cobbles, Indian sandstone, paving blocks, stone setts, slabs, and pavements.

How much sand do I need?

The amount needed depends on the size of the area and the width of the joints. A 20-kilogram bag will cover a reasonable area, but it's best to measure your space to ensure you have enough.

Is Dansand safe for pets and children?

While the sand is made of natural materials and is not considered toxic, it is best to keep pets and children away from the area during and immediately after application to avoid any accidental ingestion.

How do I store the remaining sand?

Store the remaining sand in a dry place to prevent it from clumping or getting wet.

Do I need to water the sand after applying it?

No, it is not necessary to water the sand. Allow it to settle naturally.

Troubleshooting

Weeds are still growing.

Ensure the sand was applied correctly and filled all joints. Consider a second application if necessary. Some aggressive weeds might require additional manual removal before applying the sand.

Sand is washing away.

Avoid high-pressure washing. Allow the sand to settle and cure before exposing it to heavy rain or water flow. Reapply sand as needed if washout occurs.
