Brick Paving: All brick pavers are installed as per
manufacturer's specifications as well as in ordinance
with state & local building codes. Here's an
overview of the process we will be going through
during your paving project installation. Included are
our standard installation specifications.
The day your project's excavation begins, John spray
paints out the exact shape and size onto the actual location
of the project for your final approval.
Plywood sheets are placed over existing lawn, as needed,
to protect it's integrity during the excavation and base
building process.
After determining the elevation and drainage
considerations, excavation begins.
Approximately, 7" of soil will be removed to compensate
for the 4"-6" Grade 8 limestone gravel base. The gravel is
spread and graded prior to being machine compacted. 1"
of coarse sand is then spread uniformly over the
compacted base gravel. The brick pavers are the laid in a
specified pattern. Bricks are laid out approximately 6"
wider than the final size of the project. The edges are then
marked & cut prior to the installation of the soldier
course(outside border bricks). A high grade plastic edging
is installed using 12" metal spikes to secure the outer
perimeter of the project. The edging is backfilled with soil
and seeded unless otherwise specified.
Joint or polymeric sand is swept into the joints between
the bricks. The surface is swept and blown clean to
eliminate any remaining sand.
Natural Stone: Natural Stone can be installed as a patio or walkway using a 1"-3" thick stone that varies in size depending on the type of material used. Steppers or larger Flagstone pieces are hand assembled in a mosaic pattern on top of our Grade 8 limestone base. Limestone screenings(fines) are used in place of bedding & jointing sand. Prices, colors and uniformity depend on the exact stone choice used. We urge our clients interested in Natural Stone to visit one of our local suppliers.
