		<description><![CDATA[In my opinion the key to a long-life concrete or brick unit paver surface&#8211;assuming the foundation structure is properly built&#8211;is re-sanding. As discussed in other articles at this blog the sand is the &#8220;glue&#8221; that &#8220;locks&#8221; the individual pavers together. The sand, when wedged tightly in the narrow joint between the pavers, essentially &#8220;locks&#8221; the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Concrete unit pavers are getting a bad reputation in some circles as they have not provided a care-free pavement. But, there is no such thing as care-free pavement. Some just need more care than others and that is the case with concrete unit pavers&#8211;particularly in high traffic situations in a wet environment. Ironically loose sand [...]]]></description>
