What happens here
Begin by assessing the prepared base for your walkway. The video shows a Bobcat skid-steer loader, which indicates that significant groundwork, such as excavation and base material compaction, has already been completed. Lay the main, uncut pavers onto the prepared and leveled base, following the overall design of your walkway. Focus on establishing the straight or primary sections before tackling any complex curves. Ensure the pavers are tightly butted against each other for a secure fit. The narrator notes that most pavers are already laid, with only corner pieces and curved sections remaining to be addressed.
Goal: Lay the majority of the straight or primary paver sections.
Tools and materials
- Bobcat Skid-Steer Loader Bobcat — Initial excavation, grading, and moving base materials (if applicable for a larger project or professional setting)
- Level — Checking the evenness of the laid pavers
- Pavers — The primary walking surface of the walkway
- Rubber Mallet — Tapping pavers into place and ensuring a snug fit
- Walkway Base Material — The underlying compacted layer that supports the pavers (e.g., gravel, crushed stone, sand)
