“Check it out, check it out” -paver guy #hardscape
What happens here
The worker begins by assessing the area where the new pavers will be laid. The groundwork is already prepared, showing a compacted gravel or crushed stone base adjacent to a previously installed section of dark gray rectangular pavers and a light gray stone border. The worker is ready to pick up and place the first new paver.
Goal: Confirm the readiness of the installation area for paver placement
Tools and materials
- Compacted Gravel Base — Providing a stable foundation for the pavers
- Dark Gray Rectangular Pavers — Existing part of the path/patio providing a reference point
- Light Gray Stone Border — Defining the edge of the paver installation
