  • I am planning on installing gravel and loose-fill paving. What to use to fill in between pavers? There are a few different options, but my favorite is ground up recycled glass. It's durable, non-toxic, and available in a variety of colors. Another option is crushed granite, which is also durable and non-toxic. And finally, you could use decomposed granite, which has the added benefit of being slightly absorbent and helping to reduce dust. Whichever option you choose, make sure to taper the edges of your filler material so that it doesn't create a tripping hazard.

    I am planning on installing gravel and loose-fill paving. What to use to fill in between pavers? There are a few different options for filling in between pavers. One option is to use sand; this is the most common option, as it's cheap and easy to find. However, sand can get messy and it can be difficult to keep it in place; if you have windy weather, your sand may end up all over your driveway or patio. Another option is gravel; this is a bit more expensive than sand but it won't blow away in the wind and it's less likely to get tracked inside your house.
