    Great information. I've built several of these. I quit using sand, though. Where I live, ants will burrow in it, and tree roots will undermine the patio. I use granite dust for the base. Once tamped, it's like concrete. Lay the pavers, and you're done. Try it.

    So instead of using the pipe to do the sand, dump sand in the area the in several spots around the edge and a few in the middle put the sand in little mounds about the size of a paver. Set a paver on a mound on the edge and push it down and wiggle it til you get the top of the paver a little higher than what you want. Do all the edge mounds first then set a paver on each one and put a string line on top of 2 and thats your hight for the middle ones. Screed from pad to pad until about half is smooth and its smooth the whole diameter 2 directions, Chalk 2 lines across in the center. Set pavers in all 4 directions on the center lines. Let thepaver go past where you want the border. Draw a circle around the same way he marked his circle. Cut pavers in place fix edge of sand and set border. Use a plate compactor with a urethane pad on bottom on top of pavers after you brush the poly sand on top then wet

  • @OutdoorBeards

    When you lay your pipes down to start applying the sand you will see gaps under the pipe here and there. This is not a huge deal. However, if you are so far off that say the left and right pipes are lower than the middle pipe while your skreeting you may end up with waves in your patio. When you lay the pipes down their level in relation to each other is very important. So I would say do the best you can at that stage to stop problems from occurring later on in the process. Remember this is the foundation. The better you do the foundation the easier the rest of the steps will be.

I don’t think I’ll have any issue leveling the base layer after putting 4-6” of it in, but digging and tilling the clay here to getting it leveled is taking an eternity - LOL! Thank you for all your help and hope you upload more to your channel!

    I think it depends on the stones you use. I was worried a compactor would break these. I broke one even with the hand compactor, had a high point and I thought I would just beat it down and it broke. That’s why I suggested pulling the paver and removing a little sand to get it to drop. Thanks for the compliment!

    Technically the edging goes on top of the base material to hold the sand in place. I did mine different because after the project was done I removed the edging and packed dirt in to hold everything in place. Where I live the dirt is mostly clay so this works. For most people o say do the edging before the sand step. This is challenging with a circle patio though.

    I would like to ask what kind of bricks you used. I just bought a bunch of used bricks, but it turns out there are 2 types of bricks. One of them has flat sides and one has spacers on each side so they fit together with a gap of about 1/8th of an inch. Not sure which kind to use. If I use the kind without the spacers, should I just place them as tightly as possible. Thanks for the video, the patio looks great.

  • @OutdoorBeards

    @OutdoorBeards

    3 жыл бұрын

    The ones with the spacers are “pavers” for making a patio or walkway. The gap that’s created is important to give space for the polymetric sand. The other bricks you mentioned that don’t have the spacers are for building things like walls or built in grills where you would be using an adhesive to hold them together and, aesthetically, the spacers would look bad. .

Remember when cutting that you can use the cutoff pieces in other spots and have less waste. And with Lowe’s and Home Depot you can return what you don’t use. Good luck!

    If the radius is 13 feet we convert that to inches. 13x12 = 156. Then find the area of the patio. Pie x r squared so 3.14 x 24,336 which gives us 76,453.8. Then the area of the paver. 3.5x7.1 = 24.85. Then we divide. So 76,453.8 / 24.85 = 3,076.6 pavers. Round up a bit for cuts and such.

    So the math comes out to 747 pavers but with the cutting you need about 800. I bought the pavers on sale for .25 each so I paid a little over $200 for the pavers. Road base, paver sand, edging, and poly metric sand with delivery fees maybe another $300. I bought the grinder new and random stuff, etc. so I would say between $500-$600 total for just that patio.

    The hole being 7 inches exactly all around os not important. You don’t have to level out the hole. It’s just a rough number. The high and low spots created from digging get filled by the base material which you do level out as you pack it down.

    @@OutdoorBeards That's very kind of you but probably not needed now. They're 8 1/8 x 3 7/8 but I just found out today that the bricks we have to go with to match an existing bricked area can only be bought in "cubes" of 1015 bricks! I think I'll use about 700 of them per the brickyard. That's because we're considering going with split pavers (half the thickness) for less cost, and just increase the base rock thickness to get the bricks to sit at just the right height. That's very generous of you to do the math for me, but because we'll have plenty of bricks left over, I don't think we'll need the calculation any longer, but thanks anyway! Yeah, considering perma sand, but I saw some youtubers say not to use it b/c it'll peal after X years, but here in the San Jose, CA Bay Area with the mild climate, I can probably use perma sand w/out any issue, right? I like the idea of perma sand but don't want to worry about what it might look like in 5 yrs so please lmk if you have an opinion for my climate.

    It was a 14’ diameter, so 7’ radius. As for cost, it’s hard to say because I did two patios and 150 feet of edging all with these bricks, so I purchased like 1600 pavers but this patio only used 800ish. Also I bought paver base, sand, and poly metric sand for all the projects at once. If I had to guess I probably spent $500-$800 on the patio. Also this was 2020 so things have gone up and I’m kind of estimating. Hours worked, I did it over the course of 6 days at 8-10 hours a day. Hope that helps and good luck with your project!
