    I'm doing a similar project and this video has been so helpful to get me educated and prepared for the work! Two questions – you pulled out plastic siding; did you replace or add more around the outer edges of the new pad? AND did you use a geotech fabric between the road base and sand base to prevent weeds/plants growing through? Thank you very much!

    Im planning on doing a small paver diy. I really liked your video. I didn't see you use the thin black mesh. Would you say that's ok to skip that? I see people do it and some don't. Any help or suggestions would be awesome 🙂

    I really appreciate the video! Awesome work, I’m about to embark on a whole lot of paver work myself (hopefully). Lots of DIY projects in mind and I really appreciate the look. Great work!!

    So the pvc was just used for leveling purposes? If i have a 12×12 area that i need to do, the frame around it should provide the same kind of purpose, right?

    Enjoyed the video, just got done adding a paver edge around the concrete pad in my backyard and boy the video makes the excavating and prep work look easy haha. I had a moment there halfway through digging that I worried I was in over my head (63' trench, 2 feet wide…). If anyone sees this comment – I bought a garden tiller to help with breaking up the clay soil and it helped A LOT. You still gotta get the dirt out of there but chopping it up is so much easier. Great video and the pad looks nice!

    Thanks for the video, I have realized that I will need to hire someone to do this job for me😂😂

    Finally a true diy pavers tutorial. Without all the big equipment and ad-like extras or "professional opinions". Perfect video to help motivate me to start my area this summer.
