How awesome is the quik cut!! thats what we call them here, I forget what you call it. Is that the 14 inch ?

Question. You have been helpful in the past so thanks. I just finished an about 20x20ft paver patio at my house. Turned out great except for two things. 1, I sunk it because it built into a hill so I have a short wall retainer on the uphill side and along the sides and the downhill side it's about 10 inches below the lawn level. When we get a heavy rain, it holds water but does flow away because of the grade. I think I have a fix for that. So to continue with my problem, I gave the patio a slope 1in per 8ft. so problem 2, I don't like it. Sitting at the table I feel off so I'm thinking of pulling up the pavers. The base is 3/4 minus...about six inches deep, with 1in sand and using plain old sand in the joints. My thought is to pull up the pavers, remove the sand, put down another layer of fabric then a layer of 3/4 or something clean crushed gravel, leveling it to "level" then bringing in some 1/4in chip angular gravel for the final 1in leveling, then relaying the pavers and using plane old sand in the joints. I'm wondering if this will cause problems. I'm hoping because of the exsisting base, it will still drain the way it should, especially if I drill some holes or something through the down hill side of the "sunken" below grade patio wall. The grass side and all of the retainer of the patio has clean gravel on the outside of the wall, so i think the water will flow much better away from the patio and into the lawn if i make these holes. What thoughts or advice do you have?

Dont understand why you didnt lay that out on a 90 degree angle .

I am just about to screed a small patio in my yard. This video has convinced me to use the HPB over a concrete sand. You mentioned it would sink a bit, but I am assuming for a small patio, this would be negligible?

You sure are gettin em on material

Well done! Is the Portland used to harden the saturated soil for excavation? I was trained like 33 years ago using clear for base on steps or stairways but not on patios. I now use 5” of 5/8 crushed and 1”-2” of hpb for final grade. ✌️🇨🇦

What brand is your tamper? Looks mint for tight spaces?

Been doing my whole yard hardscape in 99F. I almost feel like I am the yard water feature with how much sweating has been going on.

What is your 1 in bedding below your pavers? I just saw your other video-- HPB or 1/4 to 3/8 in crushed. Cool. Really good video.

Hi! Which brand of paver base panels are the best and why? Thx!

What about using stone dust for flagstone? Or should I use sand?

Is there an alternative to fully shaded areas like behind and under an outdoor kitchen area that never gets sun. Maybe a sikaflex or something similiar?

Look at the AGT KTT23. Tracks sit under the machine a bit. They appear to be 32" wide, like their bucket.

Some users report that changing out the fuel and adding an inline filter was key to making theirs run correctly. Also, some noted better hydraulics performance after changing to quality fluids. Im hoping to win a bid on one next week. Thanks for posting.

AGT makes several models found at auctions and some are narrower than the LRT23. If you need gate access, perhaps one of those would be a better fit.

Gr8 job...!

You are a highly knowledgeable and detailed tradesman. I watch your videos alt. I learn many things from you. Because you have so much detailed information to share your slightly faster speech pattern is sometime S hard to focus on when I want to not miss any detail you share. I have to rewind many times to fathom everything you share. If you could slightly decrease your speech it would be Awesome. If you can’t no worries. I would still love to listen to your videos. Congratulations you are an intelligent individual

My client wouldn't listen to me when I tried to explain this to him so I had to show him your clip to get him to listen.. I think it's bs that he wouldn't believe me, but thanks for saving my job lol!

Hottest days here are 41 42, 35 can be just as bad with humidity and if your not body isn't used to it. It's a little bit funny watching from Perth Australia. Love the channell dude. Awesome work!! Just to add, my clothes are my armour on a day like that. Thin white shirt, shorts, and plenty of sunscreen. I love the fan never thought of that, totally getting one now

So i can use on pool....

I keep to replace some tubing on my sprinkler system. Will it go through old tree roots not too thick?

Hi! Thanks so much for taking the time to make all these informative videos. Question on using the paver base and laying down pavers next to a sitting wall that is installed on a traditional base. According to Gator Base, the paver base panel needs to extend 6 inches from the end of the pavers. However, if the pavers (on the Gator Base) will butt up next to the sitting wall (on a traditional base) this of course violates the “6 inch rule” for the pavers on the Gator Base. What has been your experience in these situations? Is the “6 inch rule” for pavers on the Gator Base only needed to accommodate edging support (which the sitting wall should provide). Or is that additional 6” space on the Gator Base needed for some other reason? Thanks again for all the videos!

Hey man! Great job, Love your work. I was curious what your thoughts on using pavers as caps for in a circumstance like this? Like with a 12x24 paver?

Try installing 60ft×16 ft pad with 16ft circle with fire pit at the end of it , God dam that heat was brutal. I feel your pain 😂

Seems like a great idea - short term, at least. But when compared to traditional base construction, how do paving projects built on these panels fare after 5 or 10 years?

I just bought a Kubota SCL1000 paid CAD 49k with some attachments… So for $4500 you can’t go wrong!

The hood in the front lifts up and the hydraulic oil cooler lifts up from the right side to access the battery and hydraulic tank etc.

What you you tie the line to in the corners? Are those the same pipes you use to screed?

I know everyone seems to dislike the needle style grease zerks that come on these machines BUT they are less likely to get broken than the standard nipple style that most are used to seeing…. Keep a spare fuel filter handy, these machines always seem to need a few changed out before the junk in the tank gets filtered out

So glad I came across this video! I currently have a patio and walkway of pavers against my foundation, there is some sloping towards the foundation and water pooling. There is limestone base and 2" of sand under the pavers. Could I install base panels on top of the sand to help raise and grade away, or should I remove the sand and add more limestone (1/4 or 3/4 down, 1/4 or 3/4 clean ?) and sand instead? Zone 3a btw.

It's a mini skid shaped object. They kind of work. Looks like you got lucky with soft ground.

Great video. Side question, where can I find a stainless steel fire pit cover like that?

Do you create the slope in the soil, or when adding your base gravel? I am somewhat confused how to correct my slope for runoff in the direction AWAY from the house. As it is its sloping in 2 directions, away from and to the house. How to fix this?

Dope man, thanks.

I spend 20 mins guessing my password and logging in just to like your video. Absolutely great tutorials!

It's a bit heavy to throw on the back of a ute.

Discovered your channel a bit too late and have already installed 6” of dense graded base, the 3/4”-1” minus. The area does get water runoff as the yard has a slight grade toward where the patio will be located. Planned to use sand, but would you recommend using this material as a screed layer instead even over the dense graded base? After watching your videos, realizing this may not have been the best choice for a base layer, but it’s already in the ground and hoping to get things right for the next step. The pavers will not be permeable, if that matters-using Unilock Beacon Hill smooth pavers. Thank you!

Hi, I am planning on using paver panels for a project, but my screed layer will be sand. I was wondering whether I need to compact that sand before putting in the panels or if I only need to screed it. Thanks!

Great job and like the hideaway screens, unique!

What I’m hearing is I’ll have to pay to become a member to I actually learned something wow

why not adjust the water at the faucet a little to give you better adjustment at the machine?

The rental company gave us a compactor with a rubber pad on it. But we need to compact the soil and the 3/4 gravel area (not pavers). Does the rubber pad affect the compaction level?

I’m building a patio with brock paverbase. I have some leftover 3/4 stone from a hot tub base - can I use the stone and compact that into the soil first before putting down my bedding material (HPB) and paverbase ?

Really beautiful! They should hire you to continue the rest of the pathway so everything flows nicely.

So u dont recommend rock dust for the base for pavers? Someone told me to use rock dust AKA screenings but thought they would retain moisture instead of drain..

Ill be doing this myslef in a small area of 11x23 here in NYC. I think its going to be a fun project. I watch lots od videos and read all instructions before even beggining. If i make a mistake so be it. Thats called live and learn. Thanks for sharing.

I don't know why but your videos are not showing up in my feed...CURSE YOU UA-cam!!! Great video brother!

What brand of a adhesive are you using now?

Do you use woven or non woven fabric when laying with Brock paver base? And have you tried the gator base screws for paver base applications too?
