This is the standard way we do it in Europe and let me tell you it's better. It looks more appealing and it lasts forever. Water can drain better and usually it doesn't collect as much heat as concrete would. It also seems more durable. No cracks no nothing. And if you want to change something you can just lift them up! Great work!

I don't know , which part of Europe you mentioned, but in my old country instead sand we do the concrete slab on which we setting pavers . It is forever and for example, on driveway we never get wheel tracks or get the pavers uneven after a few heavy rains

I'm from Europe and these small pavers have some huge downsides. 1 any water flow or heavy vehicle will make individual pavers sink and it's never level after a few decades of abuse. 2 needs a lot of maintaining to keep the weeds and algea off. These guys did great but it's not extremely tight so grasses will sprout in northern Europe. Even when done perfectly you get moss growing. When kept up well and not overloaded they do last, make sure you leep some extra for when some break. You will not find the same ones 30 years later

Thanks for uploading another extremely informative helpful video, many people and DIY prefer pavers because of different unique designs/colors or poor access for concrete truck to pour. Only maybe a handful of concrete tradesmen that know how to explain advice carefully with just right crucial details on video, great job Mr.Odell

Great looking job. I've been laying pavers for nearly 40yrs now. I have always place the sand over the pavers before compacting. Rake over the sand leaving a 2mm film over the pavers. Then run the plate compactor over it. Preferably use a urethane mat or carpet bolted the the plate compactor. Wacker actually sells them. By doing this the sand is vibrated into the joints creating paver interlock.

We did our entire house front yard backyard walkways with Italian marble 1" thick , cement base underneath. It’s been 35 years now looks like it was installed yesterday. You get what you pay for

If you do pavers ...especially in the northeast, consider using the big 2'x2's .they are big & heavy and won't be as much as a problem when they shift from frost heave. The little pavers will cause you problems with that. We put down the big Hanover pavers ...that are fantastic.

This is absolutely an exceptional job. Well done, guys!

Very nice work. What s the recommended amount of slope for drainage?

I've been a hardscape contractor for over 30 years. Installed pavers from dozens of manufacturers. They look great when installed but I've been getting more pushback and complaints from customers who's installs go back 10 years or more. We're seeing a lot of deterioration and crumbling especially on the oldest jobs. Some brands hold up better than others but a lot of that is dependent on the age and in some cases no rhyme or reason why the pavers fail on similar age identical brands of paver. In my market were seeing a fair amount of customers rejecting the pavers and going back to slate and stone for this reason.

Looking great

The wet set concrete perimeter, how thick is the concrete? Seems like it is prone to cracking, hence the bricks will readily move. Also, you'd mention to soak the base rock before compacting, aren't you concerned about over saturating it & the subgrade? You could get pumping as a result.

Thanks for these uploads mate. Am mid way through doing a DIY job at my place with just over 120 Square metres of paving. Yup, Im feeling old. Also had to install 5 storm water drain inlets and one inspection point. First time I have done plumbing and used a new invention called a Snap Tee.

I really like how you used the pipe and paver, to establish finish grade to your drains. How much did the pavers settle into the sand? Was that a factor, so pavers ended up flush with drains? Just wondering if you left pavers slightly higher than string line, to account for this? (His hand was blocking camera close up). My concern is not to end up low at drains, after compaction. Look forward to learning this important detail from your skilled team!

@OdellCompleteConcrete

2 жыл бұрын

If the base is tight and the sand is consistent 1" you can count on a 1/4"

You should sweep the sand in place before you compact with the plate compactor. The sand vibrates down and settles in place preventing the pavers from breaking.

Damn that looks so much better than a slab

BETTER THAN CONCRETE? ...looks damn good thats hard to say tbh. Concrete with brick inlays looks very nice too. Hard to say but it does look awesome especially how the pavers flow up against the retaining wall. Looks Damn Good 👍
