The first step is to remove all the grass and then excavate to a depth of approx 6 to 6 ½ inches. We lay a geo-textile weed cloth, then covered with approx 14” decomposed granite gravel base, compacted with a plate compactor.
Next approx 1” of sand & portland sub base for stability and to acquire a proper slope for drainage. Then lay our pavers either with a random pattern or a specific pattern on Holland stone (Brick look) series such as running bond, basket weave, 45 degree herringbone or 90 degree herringbone.
Final step is to sweep a fine sand into the joints, or polymeric sands with a variety of colors upon request, Pavers come in many styles & colors such as Holland stone, 3pc cobblestone, antiqued with a tumbled type finish, medium 3pc, and large 3pc.
Pavers can be cut to most patio designs curved, square or rectangular shapes.
Pavers can also be installed over existing concrete using a 1” sand and portland sub base and wet set outer edges.
