How To Install A Natural Stone Patio

What happens here

Begin by distributing the crushed stone or gravel evenly across the designated patio area. Use rakes and leveling tools to spread and smooth the aggregate, establishing a consistent and level sub-base for the subsequent paver installation. This step is crucial for the long-term stability and drainage of the patio.

Goal: Level the crushed stone base layer in the patio area to ensure a stable foundation for the pavers.
