  • You have excavated and prepped your paver base. Now, watch Roman Stone as he lays a paver patio. This video applies to almost every standard size and style of concrete interlocking pavers. The pavers used in this video were Romanstone Ledge Rock Century Series. Both Timberwood Blend and Harvest Blend colors were used.

    WE DID IT. We built a damn paver patio based off this video. It came out great. The plate compactor was intensely heavy and we definitely had to figure it out. But all in all-it’s awesome. Can’t believe we did it! Thank you 🙏🏻 for your videos 😄

    Not sure whether anyone will read this far down in the comments, but here goes anyway. I watched the videos and built my itty bitty patio... 8 feet x 32 inches. More for storm water guiding than anything else. Instead of the Big Ass Square, I crisscrossed string every few feet creating the outside equivalent of big ass graph paper, and lined up the paver seams under the strings. That kept everything visually square without measuring. For someone like me who does this rarely and wants to take too much time to be precise, this one procedure kept me on track. Else the 1/10th inch or less variations in paver dimensions would drive me crazy lining them up. Thank you for the video - it's a confidence builder.

      Thanks for the reminder, I am planning my own DIY project and your comment prompted a memory. I thought I recalled my Father using string to keep his lines straight and prior to that the sand base level. The patio he laid was still there when I visited the property some 10 years later when the house was up for sale. They didn't have big ass squares back in those days either. I'm 60 now and will be doing the supervising as my nephews do the heavy lifting on my own DIY paver project at my new home. I wish you luck if you decide to do a larger project but I think you will be successful because you think outside the box and use common sense.

    Before running your compactor over the pavers you should have put down a layer of polymeric sand that would vibrate into the cracks and lock the pavers in place as well the compactor would ride on top of the sand and not scratch your pavers.

      You can do it. Just take your time and don't cut corners. Fix it now. It is easier to do it right the first time. Make sure everything is well compacted. You should be good to go. Unlike pouring concrete, you could fix something if it did mess up later...try to keep that from happening. Go for it! You'll be a pro just as you finish your job. Then you can charge your neighbors when they want you to do theirs :)

      Question, I'm about to have a bunch of paver work done. But what other ground cover options do I have that would be cheaper? I have dogs so, cleaning up their #2s is an unfortunate but necessary task. Grass is out of the question cuz they'll just tear it up.

    • @Romanstonehardscape
      @Romanstonehardscape  Před 5 lety +4

      @@kbanghart There is no cheap groundcover. I have pavers, artificial turf, real turf, and groundcovers- like plants. Pavers and artificial turf are almost identical in price, prep, and maintenance. Plant grouncovers are the most expensive, high maintenance, and slowest to cover. Real turf is relatively cheap (sod not so much) but it is a maintenance pig! I have to overseed every year or two, fertilize, use pre-emergent, post-emergent, fertilize, water, mow, trim, mow, trim... it's endless. You invent a fast, cheap, beautiful low maintenance groundcover(anything), and I'll come work for you! Sorry, there is no magic product. Oh - poured concrete is kind of cheap, but it is ugly, cracks, and is mid maintenance... Plus, it takes the same prep as pavers, and is hard to do it yourself.
