This really helped me exactly what I needed all the other videos were no help this video from 10 years ago helped more then the ones from recent years thank you.🙏🏽
This was excellent. You explained everything you did and that helped tremendously. There r some of us that have never done anything like this so, to me, this was most helpful.
these ladies did a fantastic job. Video was around 10 years ago, so there are better base materials available now, plus you should always use landscape fabric below the base to keep weeds and things from growing between your stones. Instead of sand, use high performance base or HPB from your loal big box store.
So the problem with the root found, is what? Change the path because of a root? Worried it would grow up between the stones? Thanks for your video, very helpful!
Super helpful video! Thank you so much. A few questions if you don't mind: 1. if I want to plant ground cover between stones, should I fill in the crevices with dirt instead of sand? 2. What kind of sand is best? 3. If I am laying the patio outside of my house, how many degrees should I slope it away from the house, or can I keep it level?
Dani Nash If you're wanting something to grow between the stones you should use dirt as sand won't provide the same nutrients to the plants. As far as building a patio and the slope I would consult someone at your local home improvement store.
Nice video. I would just request that when you interview an expert that you let them do the talking. Bob Vila is really bad about adding advice. Thanks for the video.
i used sand as a base for flagstone with nothing else. patio has been in perfect shape for over 7 years now. i used mortar for filling in between the flagstones, and this makes it more of a solid patio; individual stones do not move when you step on them. but i like the natural use of sand in between. might try that next time. however, how do you avoid getting weeds coming up?
