Magnificent!!! I’ll never do what you do, too old and no where near the patience…but I do get a wonderful feeling watching you and Benny creating your masterpiece!! I can’t wait to see the sitting wall going in and how you do the transition to the doorway!! My pleasure again!! Thank you for sharing!

[@langman9809]

That patio is freaking massive man, great job!

[@bramirez1803]

Thanks for sharing, I’m learning a lot from your videos. You guys get down

[@MrNice-gw5dt]

thanks bud love your show.....going to take on my patio next week!

[@Scaperofland]

Another great video. And thank you for the awesome content. My offer from a couple videos ago still stands. Say the word and I’m on my way. Well I mean as soon as I can😂. I mean who couldn’t use some free help!! Keep up the great work. God Bless

[@Mangold2865]

Good stuff as always. Question for you: I have a paver walkway and patio coming up. My only options for bedding layer are: 1/4 minus (stone sand), washed sand, or pea gravel. Which out of the 3 would you pick if you had to? Freeze/thaw cycles aren’t really an issue where I’m at. I plan on using 3/4 clean (3/4 chip) for base Thanks in advance

[@brianhanley12]

Looks great man, looking forward to wall 👍🏻

Therapy 😊

[@jacobbuckley8232]

I wanna see the rest of the natural stone wall videos.

[@skilledhands8198]

Amazing content bro💪

[@KieransLens]

When you have free time you should do a video regarding your tools and equipment with in depth specifications

[@tomalley798]

Actually, thank you, for your tutorials, and thank you for your high quality workmanship. And thank you, for sharing your knowledge. And thank you, for sharing your journey. Edit; even though you are one year behind in your uploads😬

[@DavidBoysII-hz5zo]

CHS, that patio looks incredible!! Super sweet. Want to also say the editing and content of your videos is really professional and clean. I’m doing a couple of hardscape projects at home and love watching your videos. THANKS for all your hard work.

[@dannydangelo762]

Another great vid. Keep'em coming brother , awesome. ✌️

[@ricks2104]

I wish we had a chip stone here for the paver bedding. We end up having to use quarter minus material while everyone else still uses sand around here.

[@ChickenFarmerMA]

Happy Tuesday! Patio with L-shaped wall... sounds familiar 😆

[@KieransLens]

What polymeric sand do you use / recommend? Also, great work, it looks amazing!

[@joshuaavery-scott5642]

Your consistency is amazing! Since watching I've started my own hardscape business and been dabbling with the GoPro for a few months now and its great to be able to learn from you in both aspects of this trade. Now I do have a question though, would the bubble touching the line on that type of level be a 1/4" (2%) slope/pitch rather than 1/8th? Those levels with multiple lines definitely provide a 1/8th on the first line but I want to hear your thoughts/experience, especially since you'd know your exact rise/run on your jobs. Thanks man! :)

[@Ioannoneservicesllc]

I've been watching your videos for 2 months straight now love your work, im looking to expand my company. I'm in NY and have a lawn mowing business looking to move into hardscaping and doing patios. what do you use and or what's your process on sealing/ staining the walkways/ patios you do?! I want to do everything on my own property first for my first time but don't wann dump thousands and have it turn out looking like crap

[@user-fl9ei6bj6c]

Hey upload all parts of one job at once not one this year next in next scattered hhha

[@robbermick2545]

Another Awesome Patio!!! Nice Job! Quick question, Why don't you run your plate compactor with a protective pad over the pavers to flatten and even out the paver's surface? Is it a personal preference to only use your mallet or is it from your experience causing to many issues (scratching/breaking pavers) from using a compactor on top of pavers? I have a small 145lbs compactor, I was thinking about getting a protective pad for it and using it to flatten and even out the paver's surface before applying the sand joint filler. I'm interested in hearing your opinion...

[@thebigroy]

If you were to lay pavers over a large concrete slab would you use mortar, 1/4 crushed stone fine or sand at the base above concrete?

[@jacobbuckley8232]

Man its been 3weeks since a new video

[@michaelhennen5292]

I'm looking for some advice on how I can tie a small rock wall into a patio in my personal yard, also a question on a retaining wall setup. Driving my self a little crazy trying to figure it out any help would be appreciated.

[@brantleyyu7396]

Love the Chanel! How do you estimate base material accurately?

[@asramper]

How do you feel about composite pavers such as aspire or similar?

[@bobbyroberts5751]

Is that just regular concrete poured around the edge?

[@shifttransformations6597]

Is there anyway I can contact you? I want to start doing driveways too. I'm doing a lot of fire pits, walkways and patios with the information you're giving me and it's been wonderful. I'm just wondering if the process is different with a driveway? Rich

[@garypill548]

So apparently it takes you like a month to get your pavers too? Is that why you’re just doing the back yard now? Still waiting on mine lol

[@RiverValleyLandscaping]

@@garypill548 what kind of pavers? I feel like most supply yards are pretty stocked up. Unless it’s an odd color or a very uncommon paver.

[@garypill548]

@@RiverValleyLandscaping I ordered the Blu 60 Techo Bloc and Charcoal border pavers, it’s been 5 weeks, I don’t understand it

[@Mcbr.]

Can you help me to get my backyard with pavers like yours. I cannot afford it is too expensive for me. I got Parkinson's

This has to be so hard on your knees, take care of your knees cuz it sux when they're done.

Dude that space between patio and house is bugging me. That iOS app big No unacceptable

[@RiverValleyLandscaping]

There tends to be alot of problems that can arise from putting pavers right to the foundation. For one the poly sand gets beat up year over year from ground movement. Water issues are another concern as concrete is porous and there is a chance water weeping through the foundation into the basement. Because of the water issues, basement walls tend to end up with efflorescence on the inside of the wall when moisture is trapped and has no where to go but inside the house. Water moves to fill voids, which a basement is just that, a giant void. And lastly that foundation wall is sitting on a footer about 4 feet down. The footer extends out past the foundation wall a half foot or so. When winter comes around the ground rises due to freezing causing expansion, the foundation and footer do not rise as they are below frost level. Spring time comes and ground settles back down. Year over year this causes settling. All while mashing up the poly sand between the pavers and moving said pavers around. Foundation walls are rarely straight as well so it’s never a bad idea to stay off the foundation a bit when laying pavers. I have done patios and walkways both ways in the past but what is shown in the video is the best way to not have to deal with a potential problem down the road. Aesthetically it doesn’t matter much. Your eyes are not drawn to the foundation wall when the patio is complete and tables and chairs are out there, so not a bad idea to play it safe. Also allows for a slight buffer in the future if any new electrical or irrigation, anything of that sort needs to be ran. They don’t have to tear up a section of brand new patio. Just my two cents from a decade of doing this kinda work in the same geographical area as the video.
