Landscapers use many different materials when creating a design. They often use sand in Tacoma to add depth and enhance other landscaping features. The following are some ways they may implement sand into your landscape design.
In Between Pavers
A specific type of sand is used to level the ground under pavers and fill spaces between them. Using it as a filler and leveler helps prevent the pavers from shifting or breaking. Landscapers use sand in Tacoma to make walkways more stable.
Making Concrete
When making some types of concrete, the coarseness of various grains of sand can be beneficial. Concrete is used to create outdoor seating areas, walkways, steps, garden edging, and many other applications. Concrete can be poured into templates, so it looks like the walkway was made by laying down individual pavers.
Outdoor Play Areas
Landscapers are often called upon to create outdoor sports and play areas. Special sand in Tacoma is used to create a play area. It’s laid out and patted until it’s a smooth playing surface. After creating a smooth surface, they may edge it with small pavers or wood. Some professionals prefer to place a layer of gravel underneath to increase durability. Play sand is used in play boxes and for a softer surface underneath play equipment. Its medium coarseness keeps shoes from tracking it from the play areas.
