Nice job and I'm getting ready to do a small paver job in my backyard and you just gave an idea of just putting the pavers on just road base it's on12 pavers i need to put down thank you
Waooo🎉 que trabajo tan excelente los felicito Felicidades 🎉🎉🎉. Este canal. Me gusta. Mucho. Gracias por compartir. Me goso y veo como. Solucionan los retos. Y al final les queda. Super. El trabajo.
Looks awesome! Ty so much for your videos, currently in the process of laying a 3’x50’ walkway with hollands. Once the rain subsides it’s time to cut the corner 😅
Thank you very much! it certainly does add value, I tell my customers that all the time, it's like putting your money into a savings account because your houses value will typically go up the amount of the cost to install.
Wow, such great work Edit: genuinely though, I’ve been scrolling through some of your videos and it’s obvious you take pride in your work. I wish I saw more channels like this one. Subscribing for sure
@@mikez4132 I know... it has been pretty wild man. I can't believe it honestly... Never expected it to do this well this quick. But the consistent support from people like you has been such a blessing. Thanks brother! ✌
That looks great. This will sound dumb. But…… will the pavers move because there is no cement? Or is it because they are locked in by the wall and gravel that prevents it from expanding over time. I want to try this in my yard.
Thank you, and the pavers would move without securing the edges with concrete. Against a wall or structure, no concrete is necessary but when there is nothing against the pavers, you definitely want to concrete them ✌
This is a different method of base prep that uses only clean crushed stone to allow for better water drainage to help prevent freeze / thaw issues in colder climates. It is called (Open Grade Base). Here is a link to a video I made which explains the method in more detail 👉czcams.com/video/ChaJe3JqD6I/video.html
Beautiful work! Do you always lay the pavers on compacted 3/4 minus or do you use sand to level it out? I’m thinking of building one myself and would like to ask an expert like yourself!
Thank you! It is hard to tell in this short video, but we use 3/4" clean, crushed stone for the base stone and we use 1/4" - 3/8" clean, crushed stone for the bedding material. Here is a link to a video I made which explains the base prep in far more detail 👉czcams.com/video/ChaJe3JqD6I/video.html
Looks great. Only thing im curious on is how come you used only 3/4 clear gravel? Usually we use that on the base and then the last 2" we use 3/8 clear chips and compact again. It makes screeting the patio much easier. Regardless great work!
Thank you, I use 6-8 inches of 3/4 clear stone and then 1 inch of the 3/8" less clean crushed stone for the bedding material. Here is a link to a video I made which explains my method in more detail 👉czcams.com/video/ChaJe3JqD6I/video.html
Thank you ✌🏻 Main pavers are (Techo Bloc) manufactured and they are called (Blu 60) with a color tone of (Shale Grey). The border pavers are (Uni-Lock) manufactured and are called (Treo Premiere) with a color tone of (Charcoal)
The base material we used is 3/4" clean, crushed stone and the bedding material is 3/8" clean, crushed stone. Here is a video I made which explains my base prep method in more detail 👉czcams.com/video/ChaJe3JqD6I/video.html
We use 1/4" - 3/8" crushed stone on top of the 3/4 instead of sand. Here is video where I explain the method in much more detail 👉czcams.com/video/ChaJe3JqD6I/video.html
I lay the pavers randomly while watching out for a few things. I explain it in the full length video of this install. Here is the link to that video if you are interested. 👉czcams.com/video/JJvIb05mmGw/video.html
Yes sir, It is called (Open Grade Base) Here is a link to a video I made which explains the method in much more detail than I can write in a comment 👉czcams.com/video/ChaJe3JqD6I/video.html Long story short is that sand / stone dust migrates easily causing the pavers to sink and shift too easily... They also hold onto water like a sponge, so in the winter the sand / stone dust freezes and expands, causing the pavers to heave and sink with the freeze / thaw cycles. This clean crushed stone base and bedding material allows water to travel through freely. That prevents migration and stays stable for far longer... It also doesn't hold onto water so it does not heave and shift as much in the winter during freeze / thaw cycles. ✌
@@DarioPicaTips damn! That’s what I was thinking. Seems like a lot of work for something that is not more permanent and durable. The only thing I could find was sometimes they they use edging or poor some concrete at the edge to keep everything around the edge from moving. But that’s crazy to me, a heavy enough load will offset the pavers etc. I mean I suppose if you just walk on it it doesn’t matter idk 🤷♂️ seems like slabs of concrete with re bar tiring it together is way more long term and resilient then just placing stones.
Hey I’m curious I’m doing a project like this for someone and was wondering how much you charge. Everyone down here in Florida uses concrete fines and no rock for the sub base
I'm helping my neighbor install some pavers (long story).. he insisted I buy the stage one which what I see in your video and also stage two which is simply leveling sand. Is there a reason why you are not using it??
I use a non traditional base prep method called (Open Grade Base). It is all about laying the pavers on clean, crushed stone for water to travel through freely. Here is a link to a video I made which explains it in detail 👉czcams.com/video/ChaJe3JqD6I/video.html
I never use sand, I always use this 3/8" clean, crushed stone as the bedding material for my paver projects. Here is a video I made that explains why 👉czcams.com/video/Y5l7xLCZeyk/video.html

I use a backfill method called open grade base. It is made up of 2 different types of clean crushed stone. The base is 6-8 inches of 3/4” clean crushed stone and the bedding stone is 3/8” clean crushed stone. No fine particles in the stone to allow water to travel through freely. Better for drainage and helps prevent heaving in the winter months. I have multiple videos on my channel explaining why it’s better than sand. Here is a link to one of them The BEST Backfill Method for Concrete Pavers (Open Grade Base) czcams.com/video/ChaJe3JqD6I/video.html✌🏻
I don't use sand. I use a different backfill method then the traditional Dense grade / sand. I use (Open Grade Base). Here is a video that I made which explains the method in detail 👉czcams.com/video/ChaJe3JqD6I/video.html
That is a tough one.... I don't recommend learning simply by starting a company. You should work for someone for awhile to see what it is all about. I had 10 years of experience before I started my business.

How much was a that job?
Great work by the way?
What do you do with the pipes?
Take them out after we screed and fill in the gaps with a trowel
No mat to stop weeds from growing and sand on top of mat required?
what style pavers and border did you use. love the videos and work
Thank you ✌🏻
Main pavers are (Techo Bloc) manufactured and they are called (Blu 60) with a color tone of (Shale Grey).
The border pavers are (Uni-Lock) manufactured and are called (Treo Premiere) with a color tone of (Charcoal)
Hello just one question which tools do we need to do this?
How much do the papers drop once you wack them or no movement like sand
They will typically settle down 1/8 - 1/4 inch.
paver are beautiful the only thing after 2 year is lots work to kip weed from growing no mater if you put 3 layer of fabric
I disagree, it is all about doing things properly. The polymeric sand in the joints is key. Plus keeping the pavers clean is very important.
What is underneath the gravel?
Do u need to cement the sides of the bricks?
Only on the sides without wall block holing them together.
Here is a video on how we concrete the edges 👉czcams.com/video/_X1tCmMJQqk/video.html
what type of gravel did you use? is that 5/8" or less?
The base material we used is 3/4" clean, crushed stone and the bedding material is 3/8" clean, crushed stone. Here is a video I made which explains my base prep method in more detail 👉czcams.com/video/ChaJe3JqD6I/video.html
Nice work, it is a 3/4 or 1/2 rock for the base?
3/4" clean, crushed for the base and 1/4"-3/8" clean crushed for the bedding
Thanks @@TheChristianHardscaper
No sand eh guys just 3/4
Stone. Just so I do this
Right at my place in #warkworth ON #themanor
We use 1/4" - 3/8" crushed stone on top of the 3/4 instead of sand. Here is video where I explain the method in much more detail 👉czcams.com/video/ChaJe3JqD6I/video.html
I just want to understand how you get your stagger pattern without screwing it all up
I lay the pavers randomly while watching out for a few things. I explain it in the full length video of this install. Here is the link to that video if you are interested. 👉czcams.com/video/JJvIb05mmGw/video.html
Is that #57 base with #8 screed? Why not stone dust or sand?

@@TheChristianHardscaper awesome, I'll check that out
What are the base materials?
What do you use for your screeding layer?
So nothing really holds the pavers down, they just sort of free float on the gravel ?
yeah, in a couple of years it will be all wonky

Get the groundwork right and the jobs a doddle
That is for sure ✌
Nice work
Thanks ✌
How much something like would cost?
How high is your gravel or thickest of your gravel?
We use 6-8 inches of 3/4" clean, crushed stone for the base and then 1 - 1.5 inches of bedding stone. Here is a video I made which explains the method I use in more detail. 👉czcams.com/video/ChaJe3JqD6I/video.html
Is that winter proof or only for hot weather?
That method is excellent for any climate or soil type ✌
Et la verdure, la nature?
This is stone or concrete.
Concrete pavers
No sand?why not?
I would like to work with you, I live in Boston Massachusetts, let me know. Thank you

How do you recommend someone trying to start a paver company to get experience?
That is a tough one.... I don't recommend learning simply by starting a company. You should work for someone for awhile to see what it is all about. I had 10 years of experience before I started my business.
The only not good thing is that water will go under to reach the house's slab.
How about using bank sand (sand mixed with dirt).
The water will go to the french drain pipe I installed along the entire front of the house and be diverted to the right side of the house.
Back problems??
Not yet, but maybe in the future...LOL
