Finishing Touches On A HUGE Backyard Transformation!
What happens here
Prepare the patio base by leveling and compacting gravel. Lay a paver grid system, defining different sections and patterns. Install large format 'Granite City' pavers and 'Old Vienna' mosaic pavers according to the design. Utilize paver edgers to create clean borders between different paver types and to contain the gravel. The pattern includes a 'double Raven Old Vienna' line and specific layouts for a fire pit area, creating visual interest and functionality. Dry-lay the pavers first to ensure the pattern and cuts are correct before permanent installation.
Goal: Install a decorative and functional paver patio with a custom design.
