What happens here

The current phase involves constructing the steps to overcome the elevation difference. The narrator highlights a specific product being used for the step treads: 'Unilock Umbriano Fullnose' slabs. These are 2-foot slabs, which significantly reduce the number of joints compared to standard 6-inch pieces, contributing to a cleaner look. For the riser pieces (the vertical part of the step), 'Rivercrest' pavers are being used. The video shows workers meticulously placing these paver pieces, ensuring they are level and properly aligned to form durable and aesthetically pleasing steps.

Goal: Build robust and visually appealing steps using specialized paver products.

Tools and materials

  • Level — Ensuring pavers are laid flat and evenly
  • Rubber Mallet — Gently tapping pavers into place
  • Paver Adhesive — Securing pavers to each other and the base for stability
  • Rivercrest Pavers Unilock — Step risers (vertical face of the step), Unilock Umbriano Fullnose Slabs Unilock
