What happens here

Begin laying the bricks directly onto the leveled sand bed. The video shows a herringbone pattern, which requires careful alignment and interlocking of bricks. Place each brick firmly but gently, ensuring tight joints. Use a rubber mallet to tap individual bricks into place and adjust their level if necessary. Regularly check the overall level of the laid bricks with a spirit level to ensure a flat surface. For efficiency, consider using knee pads to protect your knees during this extensive process.

Goal: Install the brick pavers in the chosen pattern, ensuring they are level and tightly spaced
