Lay Outer Curved Border Pavers
At 0:00 in
How many women does it take to lay a paver patio?! Just one. She actually has a lot of experience.
What happens here
Begin by kneeling on the prepared sub-base, which appears to be a compacted gravel or aggregate layer. Carefully place the dark, rectangular pavers along the pre-determined curved line. Ensure each paver is positioned snugly against the previous one, maintaining a consistent gap (or no gap) as desired for the border. Use a rubber mallet to gently tap each paver into place, adjusting its height and alignment to create a level and uniformly curved edge. Repeat this process, laying the pavers sequentially to complete the outer boundary of the curved section.
Goal: Place the first course of dark, rectangular pavers to define the outer edge of the curved pathway, ensuring a tight fit and level surface.
