What happens here
Once the base is prepared and leveled, the pavers are carefully laid onto the bedding sand in the desired pattern. The video shows workers actively placing rectangular and square pavers, matching the theme seen on the back patio. Pavers should be placed gently to avoid disturbing the leveled sand bed. For straight sections, a string line can be used to maintain alignment. As the walkway extends towards the front entrance, a worker is seen using a paver saw to cut pavers precisely, ensuring they fit snugly against existing structures or form clean edges, as observed in the segment.
Goal: Install the main body of the paver walkway with proper alignment and fit.
