Lay paver stones in desired pattern. If the

desired pattern requires cutting, the pavers

can be cut with a circular saw with a masonry

blade.

Pave Away

You should now be standing before a flat, slightly sloped

expanse of sand. Take down the guide strings you used to

determine height and slope and put up new stakes and strings to

mark the lines for the pattern of you pavers (Image 10).

Start along your house or other long straight edge and lay down

the border pavers. (A border isn’t essential, but adds a crisp,

finished look, especially along curves.) Then lay the rest of your

pavers in your selected pattern. Just lay the pavers in place- don’t

stand on them or twist them. Measure over to your string every

few rows to make sure you’re staying on track. Tap the pavers

tighter together with a rubber mallet. If you’ve taken the time to

set things up right, laying the pavers will go quickly. Don’t walk

or kneel on the edge of the patio until after you’ve vibrated it;

otherwise these pavers can sink unevenly.

Let pavers run “wild” near the edges of your patio. Using a

paver as a guide, (Image 11) mark the inner pavers, remove

and cut them on a masonry saw, then reinstall the cut inner

piece and the border piece.

On tight radius circles, you can use half pavers for the

border to avoid large, pie-shaped voids between them.

Always wear proper hearing and eye protection while

operating a masonry saw.

Mark pavers that run "wild" into the

border area. Then remove the paver, cut to

size and place back in position along with

border paver.

Cut pavers on masonry saw. Saw has built-in

sliding carriage for moving pavers past the

blade.

Recirculating water keeps blade cool and

lubricated.
