Hey Stan, great video. I've been installing pavers professionally for over 13 yrs. We do our installs almost exactly to spec here in Ontario, but we take it one step further by installing heavy poly woven landscape fabric in as big of sheets that fit under our granular A subgrade. Helps with gravel retention and contamination from ground water into your base stone. Also polymeric sand is almost a must to reduce weeds and keep everything locked in tighter and prevents surface moisture from getting into the subgrade. You guys are awesome. I love your videos, keep up the good work.

Great video. I install paver patio and I think you guys did a great job. It's basically the same way I do it. I think the only difference is leveling the 1 inch pipe, in that, level center pipe the length of the patio. Next, I level the next pipe on one end then level the length wise then check level with center pipe at far end. Yes, I insure my pipes are straight. Next, I lay pavers as I screed sand. I don't like walking on fresh laid pavers until I have the "edge plate holders" are in place. I just wanted to share a possible direction. Again good job.
