First nice of spring means getting right in to some hardscaping for us!

What happens here

With the gravel base impeccably leveled and the installation area now clearly defined by the painted outline, the process of carefully placing the concrete slabs or pavers can commence, adhering strictly to the planned design. In this segment of the video, workers are observed strategically positioning large, rectangular concrete slabs within the previously marked circular area, beginning to form a specific pattern (initially a cross shape). It is imperative to ensure that each slab is placed gently and accurately onto the gravel, taking care to verify its levelness and maintain consistent spacing between adjacent pieces.

Goal: Install the first layer of concrete slabs or pavers.

Tools and materials

  • Concrete Slabs/Pavers — Serving as the primary structural and visual elements being installed to form the patio or foundation
  • Rubber Mallet — Gently tapping and adjusting the position of the pavers to ensure they are level and properly seated
  • Spirit Level — Verifying the levelness of individual pavers as they are placed and making fine adjustments
  • Work Gloves — Protecting hands from abrasions, cuts, and dirt during the handling of heavy and rough concrete slabs
