Good job. It's funny how making the walkway safer also makes it look better. I'm about to try this myself - and I'm probably your wife's grandmother's age! Wish I had someone like you around to hire to do it for me. I see this was done 10 years ago! Hope you, your family, and the walkway have fared well over the last decade!
Oh damn. When you said you’re doing this for grandma and daughter and not this yuppie white collar neighborhood, that spoke to me SO LOUD. Well done sir. I share your sentiment.
That's a really cool mallet! And your soil really is clay. You were not exaggerating previously. I could almost not see a difference between it and the bricks! :) Great editing as always!
It looks good but the only problem is you used round Pebbles underneath and those won't lock together. You're supposed to use something with under 3/4 inch gravel with smaller pieces like Crusher run. It all locks together and it won't move but all those round pieces I expect those will move a lot. Don't use them on the next section
Ideally you want to have a compacted sub-base layer under your sand that will stop the path sinking in future. But it might be ok for some years as it's only for foot traffic.
Nice labeling of the bricks? Your now an experienced expert... Only thing I would of changed since I am a CA landscaping contractor would be to put down grey tyvek weed fabric before the gravel step. GREAT JOB. All the yuppie neighbors will want theirs done tomorrow to keep up with the Jones :-)
Dude that looks aswome. You need a final compaction, you can buy a gas powered to do it, or just use a hand tamper. Make about 5 passes with the Hand Tamper would help.
Nice job man. My walkway is perfectly flat but the side slabs have started to fall out sideways and the edge bricks are soon going to follow them. I have a feeling that its because of all the dry weather we've had making the soil next to the path shrink. Not sure how I go about fixing that though.
Hello from France, Sir, I can see that you are a serious hard worker. That being said, why you didn't (jump) on the occasion to clean the brick??? One after one (you write somewhere the LETTER BIS). What a pity after all this hard work...
“Yuppy white collar neighborhood” and what’s wrong with that? You’re obviously living off your grandmother’s good graces and freeloading as an entitled young child. Grow up and do the work without commentary.
I said nothing disparaging about a white collar neighborhood. Just that OUR walk did not fit in with it, but that want the reason I was fixing it. Go outside.

Lol! My sentiments
Very nice. I like how you set obtainable goals and proceed to exceed.
The sandwich break was a nice touch 💕
I love your self depreciating intro. You definitely have me confidence. 😄😄
Thank you for doing this video. I believe we are on the same level skill set and this helped me visually. God bless
Praise God. Good luck with it. This afternoon of work fixed my problem and is still holding up.
Coming from 2021 and your "potential failure" saved my grandmas walkway so thanks
Thank for this no fuss video. You've inspired me to repair my walkway by myself 😀
That's a really cool mallet! And your soil really is clay. You were not exaggerating previously. I could almost not see a difference between it and the bricks! :) Great editing as always!
I agree, that was some RED clay!
Thanks for a easy step by step instructions. going to start a brick walkway this spring.
Good luck!
Video was great. Loved the music and editing. Walkway turned out really good. ATB
Great video, this helps me out heaps as I am about to fix my own path.
Good job 👍
I have the feeling that my walkway is going to be more difficult than yours
Nice... Love how care your family😊

Was not expecting the EDM cuts and music but still a great video.
+Kyle O'Reilly Thank you!
Maybe the part which recorded compacting the gravel wasnt shown. Ideally I would have added a 2x5 along the indise edge to act as retaining edge

Couldn't he have just re-used the old one?
Great accomplishment 👍
Wish you had shared how much sand you used because I need to figure that out correctly up front for delivery.
I used just under 100lbs for the 20 square feet I did. Good luck.
Love that setting maul.
Custom-made to be just over what my bird arms could wield. I'll grow into it. It's a whiz at setting T-posts.
Looks really good, thanks for sharing

Thanks for the comment. The clay beneath my pea gravel and sand was as hard as a rock, compaction wouldn't really do much.

google pavingexpert, a good site will tell you what to do.
Thank you, I appreciate the help.
Hello from France,
Sir, I can see that you are a serious hard worker. That being said, why you didn't (jump) on the occasion to clean the brick??? One after one (you write somewhere the LETTER BIS). What a pity after all this hard work...
Looks awesome bro
Good job man 👍👍
Looks good. I look forward to you redoing it again in a year or two when you realize that you should have used mortar.
great tutorial. will give it a try!
good job brother ,I have do the same in my house , front and back patio :(
Love it. I am learning from you. Thanks.
Haha! Love you sharing a potential failure!
This is future of America,Civilization will return to be Caveman.
I was like check✅ yea I'm in the same situation. I'm also a RUclips pro after a few vids lol
label identical bricks then clean off chalk lol gotcha
Unfortunately without the proper foundation (before sand) it will eventually fail again.
yay, nice work
too much love with bare hands
This man has a log hammer.
You call that a hammer?
ruclips.net/video/t823X254Bx4/видео.html
THAT'S a hammer.
as soon as you pour in that river rocks, it's pretty much over.
8 years of a diy walkway repair holding up fine begs to differ.
@@LolitasGarden awesome :)
. Witty commentary and enjoyable editing. -Joseph
Did a lot of things wrong but that's okay, it's your house; you're allowed too.
why would you criticize, yet have nothing to offer?
Karin Larsen oh I don't know, why, is that a cry for help?.. It has been a few years, so I can just imagine.
