How to make your own concrete pavers like a pro
DIY Paver Patio Installation
In this video, you can see how I make DIY pavers for my patio. And how I saved a lot of money by making DIY pavers.
Just so you know, I'm making DIY pavers for the first time.
- The first step was to make a wooden mold
- The second step is measuring and leveling the terrain
- And the third step is mixing the cement with sand and filling the mold, and then repeat this many times.
I found that the best mix of cement, concrete, and sand is 3 parts sand to one part cement. Water by feeling.
You will see how to lay pavers on the ground of the yard.

And so I make a patio in front of my mobile tiny house build.
To finish this tiny mobile home I need about two more months. And then we have to find another tiny mobile home project.
Stay tuned for more tiny home builds!

YES! It’s enough with the douchebag “music” in these videos. This guy knows what’s what!

@richardlove4287 2 года назад

Three suggestions, 1. Run the timber through a table saw to taper the edges,this would allow the mould to come out clean, a 5 deg angle would be fine. 2. Run a bead of silicon round the tops of your mould to form a rounded finish on the concrete. 3. Oil the mould before use. Good video, thanks.

@klerobi1 2 года назад

Thanks for the tips! 👍

@TwistedTiara 11 месяцев назад

To add onto this comment you could use some rounded metal handles on all 4 sides of the mould to help you lift it out, good video.

@alvaroschudeck957 3 года назад

Just a suggestion: Put a couple of handles on the top of it (maybe 4 of them), so it will ve much more easy to lift that wooden frame. Anyway, thanks for the video, it is a very good idea to share.

@Wyrnikh 3 года назад

To make the frame easier to pull free, you could use an enamel/glossy paint on the wood and give it a quick spray with water after each section so nothing sticks.

@klerobi1 3 года назад

Yes, it would be much better

@oakster7275 2 года назад

Just brilliant! You can custom make a template to your liking and your particular project area. Fantastic! And adding sand to the cement to make it more pliable is even better. Now, you can propably spray vegetable oil to your template to make it easier to remove.

As you go with it, you'll be better. Another idea is after an hour (depending on how fast the concrete you use dries) or so, wash the concrete gently with a hose, it will give you a grain finish. You do great!

@rwells3376 3 года назад

You will get better results if you let the concrete setup a bit longer, and use a curb tool on the edges prior to removing the form. Another helpful tip for the DIYer's, rinse the forms and spray the insides with cheap cooking spray, this will allow the form to slide off easier.

@stephensingletary8374 3 года назад

I have never done this but just from watching the results, what I would suggest is to make your form square, then you can change the orientation 4 times and vary the pattern more as the repeating pattern is a bit obvious in places, other than that, it looks amazing :D

@freedom_aint_free 3 года назад

Great idea, one suggestion would be: The commercial pavers, has actually 2 layer, one is more rough full of coarse broken pebbles can be calcite or even quartz what give them a lot of strength, but this layer does not look so great, so they have a finish layer that is very thin like just 1/4 inch at most, made if fine sand and maybe stamped with a fake stone texture, you should try to add this second layer made with finer aggregates and different cement, maybe a pre mix stucco would be a good beginning.

Slow and steady wins the race. Enjoy your summer and in the fall, enjoy your beautiful new patio. Great video. Keep the moisture at a minimum and pack the crap out of it. Now enjoy all the money you saved on buying pavers which is stupid expensive. More cement is better in harsh climates and the thicker the better only if you can afford it. If you can do it yourself, go for it and save yourself a small fortune. It's only your time, and the packing can be a bit physical. In the end your left with the pride of your own creation. It's Covid time. Time to Create!

This is an excellent idea. If I were you, I would use at least two or three models of the design to keep the cement dry a little bit before taking the wood out. I would put oil on the sides of the wood for an easy out. I would lay plastic on the ground before cement pouring. Also, I would use some pieces of steel to make it stronger. Thanks for sharing.

Hi, I like what you have done. Having watched a few of the video's like yours. For what it's worth. I would suggest making a frame that is larger than your pattern. Then I would pour the concrete in the frame first and use your pattern as an imprint into the concrete. 2 fold result is that it has more meat on the bottom to hold all the pavers together and the added benefit of less work in finishing it. Just a suggestion. Like your results as well. Thumbs up !

@ferretfez6976 3 года назад

I am going to try this out it’s a great idea but I think adding a couple of handles to help wiggle the framework out will help and I’ll add some fibres to the mix to strengthen it to compensate for the slabs not being vibrated. Maybe you mentioned this but I watched with no sound.

@klerobi1 3 года назад

Yes, that's a good idea, thanks for watching 🙂
