STEPS TO FOLLOW WHEN INSTALLING PAVERS AROUND THE POOL
PLANNING & DESIGN
This is an effective way to improve your home value and design! Make sure everything is planned before you start your renovation so you don't spend more than you need.
DIGGING THE AREA
A level area about 5-8 inches deep must be excavated around the pool. This is to make way for the gravel bed, the bedding sand, and the thickness of the pavers themselves.
PREPARE THE SUB BASE
A bed of compacted soil is laid down in the excavated area. That is very important so the ground can be even for a long period of time if it rains too much in your area, for instance.
INSTALL EDGE RESTRAINTS
An outer edge must be created to hold everything in place. You don't want your patio to start falling apart after the job is complete. This is a must!
SCREED THE SAND BASE
On top of the soil bed, a layer of sand is laid down and screeded so that it is completely level. We don't want bumps on the way so this step is extremely important to guarantee the quality of our work.
INSTALL THE COPING PAVERS
When laying the pavers, start with the edges, laying down coping pavers with a rounded edge, held in place with mortar to set a firm perimeter for the deck. It will dictate the remaining of your installation.
LAY THE PAVERS
This is where your design starts coming together. Watch the magic happen! You will notice that all your effort and good planning is coming to fruition. This is also when you will notice the value being added to your property.
FILLING AND FINISHING
A layer of sand is then spread over the pavers, filling the gaps between them. Finish off by spraying the entire deck with a hose, which helps the sand to work it was down between the pavers.
