We originally planned to lay the patio on a gravel and sand bed with the joints filled with sand. However, the guy doing the landscape design said we need to mortar the patio if we plan to use it for entertainment purposes, such as having a table and chairs on it.- Use a level religiously for the base layer and laying the rocks. -- Make sure you have a frame to contain the sand or it will seep out. -- Have a base layer of sand at least 2 deep. Flagstone rocks vary in thickness and you need the sand to adjust heights to get them all level.
5. Lay the first row of pavers along the driveway edge, leaving the same amount of distance between the driveway and the pavers as you plan to leave between the pavers themselves. Take care not to press the pavers into the sand, because this will result in an uneven walkway.Simply lay the pavers onto the sand.. Pour sand on top of the pavers once you have completed laying them. Use a push broom to sweep this sand into the cracks between the pavers. You may want to have someone hold the pavers in place while you sweep the sand to make sure the bricks donât shift.
