Jointing is a necessary but often overlooked element of many paver and flagstone projects. Explore our gallery to see the difference jointing can make.
There are all kinds of stone dusts and sands out there, but our Pavetuf and Alliance Gator products in Kansas City are specially formulated to provide a durable and stable finish for your flagstone or other jointing project.
Our materials ensure that your jointing will stay put and resist cracking. Gator dust and Pavetuf sand resist erosion, stop weed growth and keep bugs away from your stonework. Plus, your joints will be essentially maintenance-free with the proper installation!
Your project’s success is dependent on you choosing the right product for the job. Polymeric dust and sand both have their place in certain projects. The key distinction is in the size of the joint.
For thin, even joints an inch wide or less, our Pavetuf sand is the best option. These projects typically use geometric, square stones or pavers with even lines.
For larger or irregular stone, polymeric dust will work better for you. Gator dust works great in gaps up to 4 inches wide, so it is an ideal choice for variable joints that come from natural stone.
For most jointing projects, the materials will be dried and ready for use 24 hours after installation as long as the weather has been dry. rain or excessive humidity can extend this timeline, so use caution if there has been any inclement weather.
We recommend making sure the weather will be conducive to your installation before you work on your project to ensure the best results from our products.
