Troubleshooting
Grids do not interlock easily.
Ensure the connecting edges are clean and free from debris. Try aligning them carefully and applying firm, even pressure.
Surface feels unstable after installation.
Verify that the grids are fully interlocked and that the fill material has been spread and compacted evenly across the entire surface. Ensure sufficient depth of fill material is used.
Grids appear to be shifting or moving.
Check if the ground underneath is adequately compacted and level. Ensure the fill material is appropriate and well-compacted within the grid cells.
Water pooling on the surface.
Confirm that the underlying ground has proper drainage and that the fill material is permeable. The open-cell design promotes drainage, but the fill material choice is crucial.
