Good stone / paver work is really hard to come by though. Proximity to poplar trees will also cause problems.

Any suggestions on fixing a bad paver install? Ours were put in, with what I suspect is playground sand that oozes out after every rain and is just a mess and the stones are lose. I think the crushed rock base is okay. Just the sand.. I presume.
