  • This outdoor living space hardscape project in Bedford, NH included the construction of a double tiered raised patio, sitting walls, fireplace, grill unit, granite steps, paver walkway, and plantings. Techo-Bloc Blu60 slabs make up the patios. Mini Creta wall block was used for the sitting walls, retaining walls, and grill unit. A Tech-Bloc foyer fire place unit was installed. The granite steps were from Swenson Granite Works. Tech-Bloc Allegro pavers were used for the walk way from the patio to the driveway and plant material from Freshwater Farms was installed. Fifty-six pallets of material created this outdoor living space which will be enjoyed for years to come!
    This is my largest time lapse to date. This project took a little over a month to complete. Over 80,000 photos make up this video, and a lot of time editing!

    Amazing transformation. More room to enjoy and socialize. Turned a plain backyard into an extra area to entertain and enjoy the outdoors. Must have really increased the value of the home too. It looks very beautiful. I can imagine the first party out there.

    A month to complete, oh thank goodness. All through watching I'm thinking, 'wow these guys are so good and smooth and are moving tons of materials and probably doing in a few days something that would take me months to complete'. A beautiful job, very nicely done.

    Beautiful job, well done. I wouldn't even begin to calculate the cost of that. I did my back yard in pavers around the pool and we have a small patio home. It cost me 9,000. I'm only guessing but I would bet that's about a 60k reno. It looks amazing though!

  • @landonroberts1921
    @landonroberts1921 8 лет назад

    At 3:34, when you cut in place like that how do you keep the pavers from moving in the bedding sand? Whenever I try it that way the pavers move and the cuts get all goofy. These look more like slabs so I can see how it would be a little easier, but with actual pavers I tend to have a hard time. And ICPI recommends cutting in place like that so I'm just trying to get a good grip on how to do it well.

    • @DirtNinja
      @DirtNinja  8 лет назад +2

      +Landon Roberts Yes these are slabs so they tend not to move as much. Try cutting slower and the saw will tend to try and "grab" the pavers less and move them.

    • @hollamby75
      @hollamby75 8 лет назад

    • @JoeyCarb
      @JoeyCarb 7 лет назад

      I know this is over a year old but I went through the same problem as you when I first started out. My solution was to over lay past my cutting line by about 12" with extra pavers or cut pieces. If everything is tapped together tight, the "interlock" from the extra pavers will hold it all together. I'll place my foot on the extra pavers too for some more support as I'm cutting. A new high quality blade also helps when cutting in place as it will grab less and won't pull your pavers out of line.
