      Quick question... what did you end up using to set the pavers in? I was looking online, did not see "Sand & Cement" like what was use on this video...
      How did it turn out?
      We are about to do about the same project at home, but it is more for a walk path.

    When I heard you say "sand and cement" I thought you were talking about two separate things until I saw the bags. Here in the U.S. sand and cement is called Portland Cement. Looks amazing!

    • @dantheman2595
      @dantheman2595 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Good to know... I was thinking the same thing. I've always heard ppl using mortar for this. Sand and cement or Portland cement sounds easy..

    I have a vision for my small backyard in my new house, I’m definitely not gonna do it on my own because although I’m going a simple route, I still need to get the entire surface leveled while allowing drainage to the pre routed drain path. But I love this touch, might run those rocks with small desert plants to survive the Vegas weather

    Stone/pebble mulch looks good for one season only. Dirt, pine needles, leaves and weeds will accumulate, and is quite difficult to get out, especially around plants. Every spring I have rake the stones back and forth to loosen up the debris, while hubby uses a leaf blower to blow everything out of the bed.

    • @edover50
      @edover50 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      D TheDad Ground heaves and settles as it freezes and thaws which can cause edging like this to crack. Once moisture gets in, repeated freezing and cracking it again and again until it falls apart. We generally dig down further , add a good layer of pea gravel to help any moisture run off. We also reinforce any concrete with rebar or mesh, even on a small project like this to help keep it all together.
