Some videos put a layer of paver base or pea gravel first so it doesn't sink over time. Is it not necessary because the concrete accomplishes the same thing?
@chrismeier3805
@chrismeier3805 Ай бұрын
That's not this project...this is a lot less work. These pavers have sunk a little over time but not so much that I care.

Looks good. If you have the no dig edge border behind the pavers, I don't see why cement is necessary. They aren't going anywhere. Plus, I believe your pavers are shaped so each paver next to it connects evenly with the sides. You didn't do that.

That's a lot of concrete to clean up once the border fails, and it will fail. A lot has changed in 3 years. Beuta blocks are much easier to install and probably cheaper in the long run. Those pavers are very expensive now days and so is concrete. I'm not sure how long that border was but I'm guessing for under $500 you could have used Beuta blocks and when the little lady changes her mind, Beuta blocks are much easier to take up and reconfigure.

Okay Ive got 3 stupid questions for everyone or anyone who has any insight or tips, hints, tricks... 1) So does all that extra concrete powder that spills over the front facing edge turn into clumps of hard concrete forever then? I feel like you need to bring a shop vac through and scoop a lotta the excess stuff up before watering or something, no? 2) did you stake down the "no dig" black plastic edging liner beforehand or was the just loose and the weight of the bricks kept them in place? 3) Will this work just as easy on a hill working up or down as oppossed to a flat surface like you have here? I have a big hill in the backyard I need to try and play with THANKS IN ADVANCE! PUMPED TO TRY THIS OUT!!
@chrismeier3805
@chrismeier3805 5 ай бұрын
1. The concrete just hardens and stays where you poured it. It's covered up with mulch so you never see it. As I said in the video I overdid it but no harm, no foul :-). 2. Yes, stakes come with the edging. 3. It should...the concrete holds the blocks so as long as it's not a crazy hill, I would think it should be ok. Tuck more concrete in front and behind the pavers and it should "seal" them in. Thanks for watching!
@lukeinman2666
@lukeinman2666 5 ай бұрын
UPDATE: Everything worked relatively well. I took a painting brush and wiped all the excess concreate off the bricks before watering but i will say when you water down it seemed like majority of excess would just run off the bricks anyways so that was pry overkill. staking it down worked good although the bricks were pretty heavy anyways. no problem on a decently sized hill for most part. I guess my thing would just be to recommend triple checking all your bricks are lined up PERFECTLY before watering in place bc obvsiouly once you water they're stuck in stone. Literally. I also didn't need as many bags of concrete mix as i thought either but didn't go as wide as you guys did. GREAT little project tho that adds a lot to the yard decor and ambiance. THANKS AGAIN!

How to get saved and be right with God, who loved us all, for eternal life! 1-Realize that all have sinned before God, in one way or another. Romans 3: 10-12+23 (KJB) 10. "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:" 11."There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God." 12."They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one." 23. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” 2-Realize that God loved us, even as sinners enough to allow Jesus to pay the price for our sins, as a free gift to whosoever accepts it. Romans 5: 8-9+12 (KJB) 8. “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." 9."Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him." 12. “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for all that have sinned:” 3-Confess unto God to ask to be forgiven of your sins, by accepting this freely given gift of forgiveness. 1 Corinthians 15: 1-4 (KJB) 1."Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2."By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.” 3."For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;” 4."And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:” Romans 10: 9-10+13 (KJB) 9. “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” 10."For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." 13."For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Hebrews 9: 27-28 (KJB) 27."And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:" 28."So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.” Revelation 21: 8 (KJB) "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” Romans 6: 23 (KJB) “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (An example of what to pray to God to get saved and forgiven of your sins.) “Dear God, I am a sinner and need saving. I know I’m not good enough to get to heaven and I need you to save me. I need the righteousness of your son, Jesus Christ. I believe that Jesus is the Lord, who died, was buried and resurrected so that his precious blood can wash away my sins. I trust in him alone to save me. Nothing else. Not my good works or anything else. Only Jesus. I pray this in Jesus’ name, Amen.”
