How to Build a Paver Patio [Like a PRO] Start to Finish

On my barn we have a covered porch that gets used quite a bit. To expand that area for storage and grilling we decided to build a paver patio. To do so we started by digging out the soil about 8 inches below grade. We then compacted 1-2 inches of clear 3/4 inch gravel base to fill any low spots. After covering that with commercial landscape fabric, we compacted another 2-3 inches of that same 3/4" clear gavel for drainage. After getting that leveled and pitched correctly we laid some 3/4 inch steel pips for guides and added 1 inch of 3/8 inch clear chip stone and screed it even with the pipes. With a good base in place the pavers got installed and edged with paver edging. Finally poly sand was used to fill the joints and lock all the pavers in place. We also added a small privacy fence to hide an AC unit.
