What happens here
This step involves laying the large, light-colored pavers, identified as "Unilock Beacon Hill XL slab," to form the main body of the patio around the pool and other areas. This requires preparing a screeded bedding layer (typically sand) over the compacted base. Pavers are then placed carefully, maintaining consistent joint lines and patterns. Cuts are made as necessary to fit around edges, curves, and other features. Workers are seen in the video performing these tasks, ensuring the pavers are level and properly aligned.
Goal: Create a level and visually appealing main paver surface for the patio area.
