Installing patio pavers yourself will save you from the added expense of hiring a professional installer. Setting string lines is the first step in installing patio pavers. Ensure you put up stakes along your string line's length to act as reference points for your pavement. Use your string line as a compass for the direction and height of the patio pavers. You can start excavating once you have finished setting up your string line. Using the flat part of your excavator's bucket will keep you from digging too deep. Bridging is an excellent technique to apply if you have too much organic material to handle. You can then place your base material and sand on your paving location. Ensure you tamp down your base material to ensure compaction before laying down your pavers. Once you are done paving, sweep some sand across your patio's surface to fill in the gaps.
