Paving stones define beauty, elegance and durability for driveways, pool decks, walkways and patios. A properly installed paving stone driveway won't crack, sag, shift or separate. It will keep looking fantastic for generations, and if it ever becomes stained or marred by paint or oil it can be repaired quickly and easily. Individual stones can be replaced with matching ones so that the surface looks exactly as it did before the accident occurred. This is impossible with any other type of pavement. Interlocking paving stones are also earthquake resistant--a big plus in Southern California.

an excelent job well done. wish i worked with such skilled men
I would recommend that you contact the Interlocking Concrete Paver Institute, which is the trade association for pavers, for training on the technology involved. Compacting the pavers is absolutely required, and if you're not doing so your installations will not interlock and won't remain stable.
Excellent job!
GJ guys! awesome! thanks for posting.
@DjokaStokic if you prep your base well. you wont usually run into that problem. but keep in mind, the eath is always moving and shifting. so after time they will shift. you can just pull a few up and relevel them.
Very good work
Great job!
lovely job
Nice vid!
There is a correct technology to installing paving stones. We know and use that technology. See the ICPI website for the specs. We are not only certified installers but instructors as well. It is a MUST to compact the top of paving stones to achieve the interlock thats is created by forcing sand in between the joints. While its possible to put stones over concrete we do not recommend it for many reasons. Check out Pacific Pavingstone's website for additional information.
This job took us two days. Correctly installed pavers will not crack or chip by compacting them unless the pavers are very poor quality. What locks "interlocking paveing stones" is that sand put over the top of the pavers and compacted into the small area around each paver. If a small compactor chips your paving stones you should start using a better paver manufacturer. Otherwise how do you expect to drive a car, set tools down, push a mower across.. etc Try Olsen, Belgard or Angeles brands.

Comprehensive. Thank you :)
very nice video thank you
Looks great!
after some time and crossing with some heavier vehicle over those bricks they start to move a little bit or get lower and send starts to come out. maybe putting some cement in dry sand could stop the water from coming under the bricks and let her flow over the bricks? By the way excelent video this is a PRO work :)
Rather, the thickness of the sand is the thickness of the pipes, which are chosen to be 1/4" inch more than necessary for the finished height with the pavers, since the pavers will be compressed into the sand which causes the sand level to compress about 1/4". And so, with the idea that the sand level is to be 1", the pipes should be 1 1/4" in diameter.
I'm not sure how much sand he uses? I use an inch of sand.I use a vinyl edge. I have always done my soldier course first, but i like the the way he made his cuts. i will have to try that.
There's about a quarter inch of sand. This is because when the pavers are compressed, they will be pressed down about a quarter inch.
Before you put the bricks, do you need to put something on the sand or even below the sand, to prevent weeds or termites?
i'm curious, how much did this job run? i'd love to remove the wooden steps my lazy builder put in, because he didn't know how to do brick work. but this job, how much? if you want to answer me privately, i understand, but i want to know what i'm looking at in general. thanks ps, great work and excellent crew.
Is this applicable for Canadian Winter Weather?
How thick was the layer of sand that the pavers were set in?
wont the plate compacter crack some of the pavers?
No steel in the old concrete? wow that's a first I've seen. we make em to last down under...by law. Good video thou!
dont you need to use cement to finish off the paving so it stays together?
@PURPLEQUID if they are low quality, or if you have small rocks go under as you make a pass. then there is the uncommon dud. i always order from barkmans concrete.
isnt it better to put some cement in dry send on the end and to brush it in and when you wash it cement will be like a glue and fill the gaps between the bricks and will not allow water to slide down the sides of bricks. Coz after some time and crossing some heavier vehicle over those bricks they start to move a little bit or get lower and send starts to come out. maybe putting some cement in dry sand could stop the water from coming under the bricks and let her flow over the bricks?
Is this a 2 day job? If not, how long is an average driveway paving project?
Hi , can someone tell me do weeds grow through with this method?
Ther seem to be a lot of experts out there. Produce a video and post it, that you might enlighten us, please.
yeah those cats are pretty good, maybe they should start their own business and make some skrilla scratch!
y por que no abla del sueldo mesquino que le paga todos esos trabajadores ....
interesting
1 inch.
job
MMkay dawg, whatever you say

prob about 10 grand
You know what? I don't think any billion dollar home was made by Caucasians. Mexicans are so incredibly smart.
Step 1: get a mexican
Amateurs? These people don't look like amateurs. You need to watch the DYI and HGTV to see all the professional contractors using these same techniques. What happens is that some people just love to criticize others, specially if the workers are Hispanics.
You lose many of the mechanical benefits of paving stones if you install them on a concrete bed, and will reduce the lifetime of the installation. The correct engineering specification (class 2 road base, compacted, sand, compacted) gives an installation several times stronger than concrete. Refer to the ICPI for correct installation methods. No reputable paving stone company will install on a concrete base without sand or compacting. No manufacturer would warrant such an installation.
