What happens here

The presenter points out that "concrete edge to go on the outside yet" is needed. This step involves installing a durable concrete border along the perimeter of the paver driveway, especially where it meets the lawn or other softscaping. This edging provides crucial structural integrity, preventing the pavers from shifting laterally over time and maintaining the driveway's intended shape. Prepare a shallow trench along the edges, then place and level the concrete edging material, securing it with fresh concrete mix.

Goal: Secure the perimeter of the paver driveway to prevent paver shifting.
