Phase 2: under-deck hot tub. #hardscape #paverpatio
What happens here
The video concludes by showing the entire expanse of the prepared sub-base, confirming that all areas—the walkway and the under-deck pad—are now at the same elevation as the existing patio 'little guy'. This indicates that the rough grading and sub-base compaction are complete, and the surface is perfectly level (or at the desired slight slope for drainage). At this stage, the project is ready for the next critical steps: spreading and screeding the bedding sand layer, followed by the actual laying of the pavers to complete the new patio extension.
Goal: Confirm the sub-base is correctly leveled and prepare for bedding sand and paver installation.
