What happens here
Although the major hardscaping is complete, several finishing touches remain. These include installing the infill for the fire pit (such as fire glass or lava rock), applying polymeric sand to the paver joints for stability and weed prevention, and reestablishing grass and new plants in the surrounding disturbed areas. The video provides aerial views showcasing the entire layout of the newly installed patio and walkway, extending around the house.
Goal: Complete the remaining aesthetic and functional elements, including fire pit infill, polymeric sand, and landscaping.
