What happens here
The main phase of paver installation proceeds, with workers meticulously laying various types of pavers, including "Beacon Hill" and "Mattoni" pavers. A distinct herringbone pattern is visible in sections closer to the house, while other patterns are used to create the cohesive patio and pool deck. This process involves careful placement of each paver, ensuring consistent joint lines, proper alignment, and cutting pavers as needed to fit edges, curves, and integrate with the previously cut stamped concrete. The video concludes with aerial and ground-level views of the ongoing and completed paver work, showcasing the transformation of the outdoor living space.
Goal: Install all pavers according to the design plan, creating the patio surface, and complete finishing touches.
