What's included in a Halifax paver patio install
Excavation to 8–12 inches below finished grade. Geotextile fabric to separate native soil from base. 6–10 inches of 3/4-inch crushed stone compacted in 2-inch lifts. A 1-inch screeded concrete sand setting bed. Pavers laid in the pattern of your choice. Edge restraint to lock the field. Polymeric sand swept in and water-activated for a stable, weed-resistant finish.
Why proper base prep matters in Halifax
Most paver patio failures in Halifax come from base prep that wasn't deep enough or wasn't compacted properly. Freeze-thaw cycles push improperly built patios out of level within 2–5 years. We over-build the base so your patio is still flat 25 years from now.
