What happens here
As you approach the edges of the pool deck, curves, or any obstructions, full pavers will not fit. This step involves measuring and marking the pavers that need to be cut. In the video, a worker is clearly seen operating a cutting tool. Use a wet saw (ideal for clean cuts and less dust) or an angle grinder fitted with a diamond blade to carefully cut the pavers to the desired shape and size. Always prioritize safety by wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
Goal: Custom-fit pavers around the pool and deck perimeter
