How a local crew does it
- 01
Dig the base
We excavate to 7–9 inches and compact a gravel base — the part you don't see that decides whether it stays flat.
- 02
Screed and lay
We screed a 1 inch bedding layer and lay the pavers tight against a string line.
- 03
Cut and lock
We cut the edge pieces, set a poly edge restraint, and sweep polymeric sand into the joints.
- 04
Compact and wet
We run a plate compactor over the top and wet the sand so the pavers lock together as one mat.
When to book in zone 5b
Build May through October when the ground is workable. Book by March for a summer patio.
