We use 57s for backfill on retaining walls. With 4" corrugated pipe for drainage. We use 411 for our base material along with poly meric sand for the joints. And instead of sand for our screed base we use 9s.

PS we use versa-lok as well.
Stanley – do you have any preference between class 5 and recycled concrete? I've looked on-line to see if there's any benefit to one over the other and can't seem to find any concrete evidence (ba doom pshhhh) about better compaction etc…All I know is recycled concrete is cheaper. Thanks!
Hey Stan, im working with a guy on his website and he is SRW certified and ICPI certified and I told him to use 1inch sand base and not to use polymeric sand lol. I said that you are an authority source of info and told him I would not promote his business if he didn't take the advice. His business is only 1 year old.
Is there a 'no shouting and gesticulating' version of this?
excellent video, Question? can you do this above a leach field from a septic tank?
You deserve more subscribers!!❗️
Do you need a permit to lay down pavers ?
Everything looks good but you shouldnt do a wood steps at the end, you should do paver steps
Great video, I did not know that about the polymeric sand, that's something the big box stores don't tell you.
Informative. Thanks! One thing that stood out that is irrelivant to the process. "Irregardless" is not Word (it is now in the dictionary as a slang word because so many people use it not knowing it is incorrect), it is a double negative and sounds rediculous. The correct word is "regardless". Sorry for the douche bag comment but that word drives me nuts for some reason.
Block paving is for driveways , natural stone slabs for patios
If I have sprinkler lines, will compacting crush them or affect them negatively in any way?
Hi Stanley, what brand of pavers did you use on this install?
may I ask if you are using a shotgun mic on your camera and have the sock on it? it seems like your voice max's out the mic a lot and audio gets pretty loud/unpleasant to the ear. I love your videos but some can be hard to watch. I notice it happens most when you are in a quiet place just talking to the camera by yourself.
