Dansand A/S Reviews 27

Spent a lot of money buying this useless product as we have large driveway. Followed instruction by mixing each bag thoroughly before brushing in and then fully compacted. The product hasn't hardened and us washing out leaving empty joints. Do not waste your money and effort on this product

This product is a con in my experience. Applied earlier this year, weeds appeared before long and continue to appear much as they used to. Don't waste your money.

Completely useless, do not buy, I pressure washed the whole patio and applied the product the folling day a one week later there's growth everywhere. Extremely inafective.

This product does NOT stop weeds and moss growing between block pavings.I am very disappointed with Dansand,I followed instructions to the letter and now I have more weeds and moss than ever.Don’t fall for this con,!!

Dansand does not harden as described on the packaging. Sweeping loads up everytime we sweep the patio. Will have to re-grout next time I pressure wash the patio I suspect. Really disappointed, though it does seem tk have stopped the weeds for now! Won't be buying this product again and can't recommend it.

Used it to repoint a patio. No weeds after 3 months, but absolutely no hardening either. Ants are free to come and go through the gaps they have created. E-mailed them, but they just referred me to the UK stockist, who have not replied. I will not buy this product again! Beware!

I have to agree with other reviews, it doesn’t stop weeds. I applied in 2021 and the weeds just keep coming.

Gave the patio a high pressure wash got ready rid of all weeds, 3 weeks later back to normal!
Absolute rip off they should be suede for selling products not fit for purpose!
Went to the website and surprise surprise no contact details - that’s says it all! Clearly they have something to hide!

Was using Tarmac but when I went for further 2 bags only dansand was available. After use tried to remove as much surplus as possible, the next few days it had started hardening and where I had used it the red and blue tiles were stained whiteish. Tried to remove it with Brick cleaning acid but it is proving difficult. Ruined the appearance of my drive!

Doesn’t stop plant growth! Dansand No Grow Block Paving Sand, the bag says prevents weeds, but grass grows easily and there was a couple of weeds. I bought this as I don’t want to have to do as much patio maintenance, i still had to bend over and pull grass out.

I followed the instructions every step and after 1 month the sand has not hardened at all. I made sure that the weather was going to be dry and this was done when we had weeks of sun. I left it a week and it was still loose sand in the gaps so I decided to do it again only to find still not hardened. I contacted Dansand and they said that I probably did not follow the instructions and that they have not had any other complaints and weeds do grow though this product. The product is expensive and using kiln dried sand would of been cheaper and better. Sorry Dansand I will not be buying this again.

Well it done what it said on the packet,looks great,probley better in warmer weather,but so far it's good , well done Dan sand

I purchased another product for my driveway, and it set fine as hard as concrete, but the odd small weed came through.
Therefore, I decided to go for Dansand for my patio and it was a total waste of time and money. It has not set and already bugs are dislodging it (6 days later).
It is frustrating as the weeds on my driveway can easily be controlled by a quick spray of weed killer.
Summary do not buy Dansand

A standard reply!!! But no apology to accept is still a rubbish product

Does not actually stop weed re-growth. Dabs and actually told me that weeds will not grow through it. What it actually does is let it grow around it. It must let it grow through the smallest of gaps between the blocks and the Dansand. So weeds still prosper. I finished off my paving will the old cheap sand, loads of weeds in the two weeks after the Dansand, six weeks after the cheap sand, no weeds!! Don’t waste your money!!

Have power washed my driveway due to dirt and weeds, I wanted something to fill the gaps and keeps the weeds away. I saw this no weed product which was more costly than the normal sand for a smaller bag. But due to the No Weed promise on the bag I thought I would give it a try. It went down ok and looked good, but then it rained which washed some of it out and now two weeks later there seem to be more weeds growing than before. I think there is weed food in the sand rather than weed killer or minerals. I have since emailed the company to ask if I have done something wrong but low and behold no reply whatsoever. Do not waste your money on these products just buy the normal sand or get rock salt as this will kill the weeds for longer and don't try to contact the company as they will not reply.

I refurbished my drive and Patio and bought Dansand No Weed Block paving sand as a replacement to ordinary dry kiln sand. It does not go far and I had to use twice as much as normal dry kiln sand and its twice as expensive. I ended up spending £100 instead of £25. But if it was the end of the weeds well it would be worth it. The sand did not stay in the joints. When it rains it just washes out. I end up with loose sand all over that I have to brush away after every rainfall. Where my drive slopes to the road the sand just washes out and over the pavement. To add insult to injury there are weeds popping up everywhere. Much worse than normal. Even in areas where the sand has pooled. This product is useless. DO NOT BUY IT !. I emailed the company and complained and all I got is a sorry - why don't you buy some of our more expensive sand. I emailed again and all they did was ignore me - great customer care. The company appears not to care - I would not buy any of their products ever again
