Pro Tip # 69. When burying landscape low voltage lighting wire, be sure to use conduit under any walkway so if it ever needs replacing, you can easily run a second run of wire. You'll thank me later.

I want to thank you now! Awesome suggestion.

I think Lowe's tutorials are generally better than HD's.

Damn, you can do a paver walkway in just 4.5 minutes. Amazing. Can't wait.

This video made me realize I really enjoy landscaping and just building things in general! Thanks, Lowes, my partner sure enjoys watching me build a gazebo and her not helping but sure waiting to be able to have her friends over from brunch in it XD

Have you ever done anything with the passion?

I did this today and my everything hurts! Just FYI, don't get the paver base sand from Lowes, it's very lumpy (chunks of clay and wood) and the reviews are bad, you'd be better off with regular sand or paver sand base from somewhere else. Get more polymeric sand than what you think you need (and be sure after you pour it you tap all the paver blocks because it will suck down the polymeric sand a bit) then pour some more. The paver panels are expensive and you'll need more than what you think but I do like them and they seem to make things easier. Cutting blocks was easy with grinder with concrete cutting disk. Once you pour the polymeric sand and start sweeping it in the cracks you will see it take shape and feel a huge since of accomplishment and relief as the end is near! Our project was the paver blocks shown at very start of video and cost around $600 and included walkway (about 20-25 feet) and small landing pad by side door.

If you can't figure it out on their web site, you probably need significant help to plan and execute this project. If you are ordering it for delivery, expect to pay a significant delivery fee cus that stuff is going to be heavy. As has been said, go to the store and they'll help you find what you need.

I did this during my lunch break. Came out great!

it would be helpful to see how you laid the chalk line for the first curved line.

When I watch these videos, I think about old cobblestone roads that are still in place and those long stone walls you see around farm land that were just dry stacked. They're still there. Maybe we make things more difficult.

There is also something called carpet stone which is man-made cobblestone wired together on the back. Probably easier to install and can be stained with concrete stain. Lowes sells these too.

If someone forgot to do this then one can always drive a pipe through afterwards i think. Dig 2 holes, each on each side of the walkway, connect water supply to the pipe, and push it through. But is better and easier before making the path indeed.

in all seriousness if you want a good hose 100 ft hose thats easy to manage get a zero-g and a hose roller at lowes or wherever, it makes dealing with a water hose much easier and when you get done just try to drop it as straight as possible to the roller cause when you cut it off it will go back to laying flat and make rolling it back up ten times easier as well.

Look easy. Need to start saving$$

The gravel is much cheaper if you can haul it yourself from the rock quarry on a pickup or trailer. The biggest difference would be having to dig a little deeper.

@@jtltet so for the average diy person if you dont have any experience in digging flat trenches and dealing with the grading of the yard, then yes its worth the extra money to get them because once you put them down if you want to check with a level again if there is anything wrong or just slightly off then it makes fixing this much easier than when you have a 6" trench in your yard and 4" of gravel to move around and fix, you can just lift the panels back up instead and re-level the base much easier, plus if lets say you live in an area with earthquakes or for whatever reason it needs to be taken up or replaced part or whole, it is much easier to repair, because there is not as much material to have to manage

@jtltet

4 жыл бұрын

@@awar-bb5ru It's not hard to get the area level. Even if you use these panels your area still has to be level. You can't just lay them over uneven ground. And you would still want to dig out the sod and some dirt regardless of which method you use so that your pavers aren't standing so high above the yard that is next to it to make it so you can mow across it without worrying about hitting the pavers with the mower blade. After you dig down around 6" and add in your gravel, then you add the sand on top of it and it is fairly simple to level it. Plus if one paver ever did become slightly raised due to frost heave or something else, you simple lift up that one paver and level under it again. Simple!!

@@jtltet Cooper's Corner yeah sorry man I didn't mean to comment it at you like I was trying to correct you or anything, I was trying to say like it's much easier to repair/redo/work eith or change the panels then it is to work without them and making even trenches or tenches/an area that slope at a proper gradient to allow for water to drain properly when you don't have to dig a 6-8inch trench vs what you have to with the panels, the panels are less back work and less cumbersome then digging out an area and then having to level a large amount of gravel compared to these panels when laying down pavers, I was agreeing with you, and as far as simple goes, I mean it's simple to those of us that know how to do it properly and everything that needs to be taken into consideration when doing any heavy landscaping, but those out there that don't have the knowledge of it because they never worked with it before and are just now trying to get into it for let's say there own house it can be kinda frustrating with all the different products and not understanding how to properly use some tools or not understanding the name of somethings that we have shortened to encompass multiple different products that all work the same, so I feel like the panels are probably going to be the way to go for someone to do it on there own that way if they do mess it up and have to get a professional to come fix it then it wouldn't cost as much to get them to do that vs the other, may cost more upfront but the time and effort that you save is probably worth it to someone that doesn't do it for a living
