How Do You Have Brick And Pavingstone Paths Installed?
Brick or pavingstone paths and walls can really accent your landscaping and help make your backyard a true outdoor living space. Decide where you want paths or walls. Visit several building-supply houses to look at the various colors and styles of bricks or pavingstones. Select a style and color that you feel best goes with your house and your landscaping plan (and your budget as well – costs can vary significantly). Order the material. Inquire with the salesperson regarding the approximate number of bricks or pavingstones required per square foot and order accordingly. You’ll also need to include the recommended amount of sand and/or mortar with your order. Interview several landscapers or brick masons to get prices for the job. Ask friends or relatives for recommendations or check the yellow pages. Give each contractor a diagram detailing what you want installed. Ask for references from each contractor and check with these past customers. Was each job completed satisfactorily? Select
