great video never thought of all those little details that make the work of leveling stuff and having the edge stones not collapsing with the sand. Definitely uses a little cement based mixture on the side of any patio/walk way if i ever do this type of stuff.

(**A note on the edge pavers**)That "haunching" will only support the edges if the pad is as it's shown; which is an entry or landing pad outside the door or any area with very light traffic. If you're installing pavers where there will be heavy traffic, you would have to install either metal edge bars or at least 6" thick concrete (not mortar) edge to keep the pavers from coming apart at the edge. Great video.

Quick question - after haunching you said to wait two days before compacting. Wouldn't the plate compaction drive the pavers lower into the sand breaking the haunching? I'm completing my project soon and trying to figure out these last steps. I appreciate any advice!

Can we mix jointing sand with dry cement to fill the gaps then wet it after? Second question: I've seen builders mix cement and jointing sand and spread it all over the flat bed of sharp sand, put the slabs down, then wet the slabs for a few minutes. What do you reckon? Is it a good idea?

I assume a "whacker" is a compactor? If so, how do you attach a piece of carpet onto a plate compactor? Which side of the carpeting should be making contact with the pavers?

Not sure how flex pipe works for screed rails lol. I’d HIGHLY RECOMMEND using galvanized 1” pipe for this part. Plus, without a containment border the sub grade will just fall out from under the pavers.

Hi, Thanks for video. May I ask you I have prepared my base with road base and compacted it well. Does it have to be 100 % level. It has few high and low spots at few places that I am not able to rectify to 100 %. Would adding pavers sand on next step not fix these few spots. As I am doing 2cm thick sandstone pavers installation how much would you recommend that pavers sand should be poured in. I was thinking 2-3 cm. Please share. Thank You !

A 2.5m long screed with a spirit level in it will save you time and strings... Only string you need is the one to keep pavers strait.

Wanting to pave a small enclosed backyard. House entrance is facing east, out in the yard there are two walls on the east and south, a retaining wall on the north, how would you set the slop to direct the water away from the house? Thanks

@aboilcrawl1279 7 жыл бұрын

You could slope it towards the retaining wall, there should be drainage installed. Or permeable pavings.

@scorpiuswireless1 5 жыл бұрын

Fuck the standards on Sheep Island are pretty low. That paving will sink into the stormwater or sewer pipe trench after the first heavy rain. The smarter countries use concrete under the paving, quicker and easier. Then compact sand. Use 25x25 aluminium rails to screed off or screed using profiles like a concretor. Pre cut your halves and use straight away. Use dumpy or laser level to set heights quickly and accurately. 6/10 for the sheep shagger.

@mattsmith6824 6 жыл бұрын

Dont use plastic pipe or any pipe use 3mm thick by 30mm wide flat bar and use your screed bar and level to get lines in first then sit strips on top less work and quicker

Unless it's parmeable paving it could be laid level. But yeh high point near the house and chase height round the house level 150mm bellow FFL OR VENT height to stop dampness. Set your runs on a turn of the bubble away from house. If It has to run in towards the house for any reason put in a gravel strip or if it's a big area that could shed loads of water then put in acco channels. They videos are all bollocks. Correcting lines that run off??? Set 2 lines up and set them square and lay up and out along the lines checking them every now and then. Blocks should be laid tight to keep the bond strong.

Because they are working off the string line which is their finished height ,gave it 30mm fall but still 65mm below the string line which is their finished height
