We move on to prepare the ground for the new patio after all the math has been done with accuracy.  To ensure that everything is right according to our calculations, we use tape and string to mark where everything will be installed. 


When the ground and the dirt have been dug, then gravel is added and topped off with sand. 


Laying Out The Pavers

Now that the first two phases are complete. The next step is to add and lay the pavers. It is important to cut pavers away from any obstacles that may be in the way or look not so natural.
