Project description
I don't have a fixed pattern in mind yet, so I'm open to your recommendation for a herringbone, running bond, or basket-weave layout depending on what will hold up best and look good with the house. What matters most to me is that the base is done properly: excavation, a compacted gravel base, and a leveling sand layer, so the patio doesn't shift, sink, or develop puddles after rain. I also want proper edge restraints installed around the perimeter and polymeric jointing sand swept between the pavers so weeds don't grow through the joints.
Please include in your proposal a rough breakdown of labor and materials, the paver options you'd recommend at different price points, and how many days the job would realistically take. I'd also appreciate photos of similar patios you've completed before so I can get a sense of your work.
What I need done:
— Site measurement, layout plan, and paver/pattern recommendation
— Excavation and properly compacted base preparation (gravel plus sand)
— Paver laying in the agreed pattern with correct slope for drainage
— Edge restraints and edging installed around the full perimeter
— Polymeric jointing sand applied and sealed between the joints
— Final cleanup of the work area and disposal of excess material
