 paver driveway and walkway coming right up 

What happens here

This crucial preparatory step involves meticulously preparing the sub-base for both the main driveway and the connecting walkway. This typically includes excavating the area to the required depth, ensuring proper drainage slopes, laying down a geotextile fabric (though not explicitly shown, it's standard practice), and then applying and compacting several inches of a high-quality aggregate base material. The video shows the walkway already 'based', meaning this process has been completed, resulting in a solid, level, and well-drained foundation.

Goal: Establish a stable and well-drained foundation for the paver installation.

Tools and materials

  • Aggregate Base Material — Crushed stone or gravel used as the foundation layer for the pavers, Excavator/Skid Steer Unknown
