PATIO AND SIDEWALK INSTALLATION Remember these helpful tips: -Patios must have a slight slope (1" for every 4' to 8') for proper drainage. If you don’t provide enough slope, rainwater will settle into low spots, eventually softening and washing out the sand and subbase materials beneath. A flat or poorly sloped patio could even direct water into your basement. Too much slope and it will feel like things are rolling off your patio. Bear in mind you can build up low spots with an extra-thick layer of subbase.
Use your level and a straight 2x4 to double-check the lay of the land for proper slope. Then spray-paint a line 8" outside the outline of your patio to act as a line of excavation. Be sure to call to locate and mark out your utility lines, this must be done before beginning excavation. Start by stripping away the sod at this point (Image 3), so grass doesn’t get in the way of the guide strings you’ll soon be setting up. 3 Remove sod in an area extending 8" beyond the boundaries of the patio.
Make a grid work of stakes and guide strings to indicate the finished height and slope of your patio, then excavate 7-3/8", below these lines. This will provide room for a 4" subbase, the 1" leveling sand base, and 2-3/8" for the pavers themselves (Image 5). If the area is hilly, you’ll need to go back and forth between excavating, leveling and setting strings to get things right. Soil conditions vary greatly across the country.
The Essential Edging Edging is an absolute must for maintaining the integrity of your patio. Without solid edging, your sand base and pavers will separate and drift apart from the forces of rain, frost and foot traffic. Plastic edging is available at your local Menards store. Secure the edging into the compacted subbase with spikes (Image 8). 8 Install the edging on the tamped subbase using 8-12" spikes. Spreading Sand 9 Spread and level a 1" bed of sand over compacted subbase.
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). 10 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. 11 Mark pavers that run "wild" into the border area.
When all your pavers are cut and in place, put a piece of 3/4" plywood down and vibrate on top of that to help distribute the weight of the machine, vibrate the entire patio on low setting, starting at the outer edge and working inward in a circular motion (Image 13). The vibrator will lock the pavers into the sand and help even up the surface. Don’t let the vibrator sit in one place too long, or pavers could settle unevenly or crack.

PAVER STONE INSTALLATION STEPS PAVER BASE / STEP 1 LEVELING SAND / STEP 2 PAVER LOCKING SAND / STEP 3 Install pavers over a firm, stable base using one of the four installation diagrams shown below. If installing Paver Locking Sand on a non-drainage bed system, there must be a slope to avoid water pooling on the pavers. Paver Locking sand is the 3rd part of a 3-step standard installation system when installing pavers or patio blocks.
