What happens here

The main area of the patio is paved with wood-grain look pavers, laid in a pattern reminiscent of wooden decking. These rectangular pavers are installed by carefully placing each one onto the screeded sand bed, ensuring tight joints and a consistent pattern. A rubber mallet is used to gently tap each paver into place, seating it firmly in the sand. Regular checks with a level are essential to maintain a flat and slightly sloped surface for drainage. Edging restraints are installed around the perimeter to hold the pavers in place.

Goal: Install the wood-grain look pavers for the primary patio surface.
