What happens here
Prior to making any cuts, accurately measure the void where a paver needs to be fitted. Using a measuring tape and a carpenter's pencil or crayon, transfer these precise dimensions onto the paver. For straight cuts, use a straightedge to ensure a clean, accurate line. For curved sections, it may involve using a template or carefully tracing the curve onto the paver to guide the cut. This step ensures that each custom-cut paver will fit snugly into its designated spot, creating a seamless and professional finish.
