What happens here

The areas designated for the paver pathways leading around the backyard are meticulously graded and compacted. A layer of geotextile fabric is laid down, followed by a base layer of gravel, which is then thoroughly compacted with a plate compactor. This process ensures a stable, even, and well-draining foundation for the forthcoming paver installation.

Goal: Create a stable and permeable base for paver pathways.

Tools and materials

  • Mini-Excavator — Initial grading and moving gravel
  • Plate Compactor — Compacting gravel
  • Rake — Spreading gravel
  • Geotextile Fabric — Separating soil layers and weed prevention
