We'll start by going over the tools and materials you'll need, including stone pavers, sand, gravel, a compactor, and more. Then, we'll show you how to prepare the site for the patio, including how to measure and mark the area and how to excavate the soil to the proper depth.
From there, we'll demonstrate how to create the base for the patio, including how to add gravel and sand and how to use a compactor to ensure a level surface. We'll also cover how to add edging to the patio to keep the pavers in place.
Once the base is in place, we'll show you how to lay the stone pavers, including how to cut them to fit around obstacles and how to use sand to fill in the gaps between the pavers. We'll also discuss different design options, such as using different colored pavers or creating a pattern with the stones.
Throughout the video, we'll provide tips and tricks to help you avoid common mistakes and ensure that your patio is level, stable, and beautiful. We'll also discuss different options for adding features to the patio, such as a fire pit or outdoor seating.

I’m from Virginia USA. I love watching you and Brockstone videos. I’m a master electrician and plumber. I do a lot of carpentry and masonry work. I just want to say thank y’all for the videos I layer a porcelain patio with a 3-1 mix and made a slurry mix with a concrete bonding agent mixed with straight Portland. Mainly because they don’t sell that I’ve ever seen paver primer. It worked very well. I would like to post a picture on your comments to see what you think about it. Thank you again sir
Thank you Brett glad you enjoy our channels and have used a type of primer it’s the way to go and makes complete sense to do.
You could always WhatsApp me and send some pics over.

@@tidybrickslandscaping nearly got up and danced to you putting slabs down . I've danced to something's but never that .but nearly did
Hi TB! At 29:50 "Can't tuck one there as it's dry from yesterday". I'm using the Vite system on the project I'm doing at the moment and what I've started doing is leaving a 20+ mm slot under the tile on the exposed sides empty if that makes sense.
I lay the concrete bed and tile as you do and then clean out the slot on the two exposed edges with the trowel.
Then when I put an adjacent tile in I push the new concrete under the already laid tiles in the gap I've left. That means that I can always put in the white clips even under tiles I laid a day or two ago.The concrete is also interlocked which might help but not sure.
Very good point I should try that next time hoping I remember thou 👍🏴
Bellísimo trabajo felicidades 👊💯💪👏
Thx again 👍🏴
nice work scott.....good to see you back on the float....i said months back it was easier on your wrists. its all i use now but to be fair ive scaled back the paving aspect. price for price we are earning three times as much labour wise now fitting bespoke gates and fences......better on my back too :)
ps/ have a great holiday too pal. you deserve it.
Work smarter not harder Sean and yes enjoying my holiday in Tobago. Ps just mentioned your name in one of my videos as well 👍🏴
lol see you still have the sky mans knee pads amazing what u keep when it cost u nothing lol i use hot water lagging jackets a neighbour was trowing out cost me nothing and if ur tired u can have a quick nap on them happy daysssss as u would say
Still use in the sky man is Matt very useful glad he left it lol 👍🏴
Hi Scott, love this videoo. was wondering if you could do a video on how you price up a job??
That’s a good idea I could do that on my next video 👍🏴
@@tidybrickslandscaping amazing, something I feel I can improve on, would be good to grab some tips from how you do it!
Loved the brick laying segment. Were you a bricky at one point or have you just learned to lay bricks over the years? The new wall looks fantastic
I’ve been a brickie since I was 16 YTS era 36 at it but it bores me to the bone 👍🏴
24:57 "mill-arkey" 😁
Thx 👍🏴
Hi there!
Proud of your videos...thank you so much for being our teacher.
My daughter wants me to start on her small patio area with porcelain tiles however she has a step erecting that needs building up. Do I do the steps first or the garden patio first then the steps? Any videos on this
Thank you again xxx
I’d say build the patio first and build as close as you can to the step then go from there as for design . Most likely less cutting as you can build to the size patio you’ve done up to tiles you stopped of at 👍🏴
@@tidybrickslandscaping thank you so much for your reply, much appreciated! You are good 😗
Hi Mate love the vids, quick question for you, what's you're thoughts with laying porcelain slabs with building sand ?
You could if you wanted it would still stick but not the type sand particles you want as building sand is more Circular and better used by bricklayers sharp sand is more angular and locks better so they say who ever they are ?? 👍🏴
Great job and very helpful. Iv seen a lot of your vids and subscribed, really good content.
Question, Is it ok to lay new porcelain tiles over existing patio slabs that is uneven and has cracked joints ? Ideally don’t want to re-do everything.
It depends if you have hard-core underneath the existing patio 👍🏴
Loved the video. Laying 36sqm of porcelain this week. With the dead man slab, how long do you have before the mortar underneath starts to set? Do you use any plasticiser in your mix?
Always a squirt of fairy liquid and it’ll be easy to lift up the following day still without the primer but move it as you need then prime and stick 👍🏴
Top job top man enjoy the two weeks off mate 👍 👌 👊🧱🧱🏴
Not long to go lol 👍🏴
Hi Scott
Great video, can I ask what cement mix you use?
Thanks
4 sharp sand 1 cement wet mix 👍🏴
What sort of sand are you using, on the current job they are using shape screed which is different from how i lay with mixed building sand?
Building sand isn’t the right sand you need sharp sand it’s a totally different grain 👍🏴
hi Scott great video what's the mix you are using to bed them on ?
4 sharp sand 1 cement wet mix 👍😆
Hi Mr tidy bricks I’m laying porcelain slabs on to a concrete base so can I use a thinner bed of muck and could I use a PVA slurry primer instead of the expensive stuff like we used to thanks love your vids am now addicted 😆😆
Sbr would be better than pva just prime the concrete first and the back of the tile. Thinner bed is fine with concrete 👍🏴
Love your work can I ask is it possible to paint or stain a patio
Yes you can but not until six months after it has been laid that you can seal the patio 👍🏴
Hi Scott why didn’t you just plum the acos into the existing storm drainage (not the same as foul drainage) unless it was a combined system but even then it would be fine. Top work as always bud 👏🏼
Didn’t find it so I put my blinkers on and dig the hole as I had the digger still 👍🏴
Alright,any chance you could recommend a primer,sealant and white grouting for a slate patio installation, cheers👍
How are you is Marshalls prime and regarding there are many types to say but all good 👍🏴
Just about to start this myself what depths do you use for the MOT and then the cement mix ?
10mm type1 mot and between 30/40mm cement 4 sharp sand 1 cement 👍🏴
Great job. How deep is your mortar bed? I may need to make mind about 50-60 mm in some places but I'm afraid that's too deep. Would still fall below the damp course but would that deep be okay?
The amount of cement doesn’t really matter it’s just not cost-effective 👍🏴
Need more moasure videos still getting to grips with mine
I’ve just been in contact with Moasure for them coming out on my next video and explaining exactly how to use it 👍🍻
did you have to test the soil for the soakaway if its suitable? as im looking to add a soakaway also thanks
We were lucky it’s rained really heavy overnight and was dry in the morning 👍🏴
Hi Scott where did you get the ocean grey edging stones from ??
Ocean marble step kit from Marshall’s edging are called black round tops same place 👍🏴
Unrelated question… but what type of block work would be easiest to prime for outdoor porcelain tiling? and what primer would you recommend? BAL and primer slurry?
Regular concrete blocks are fine and I normally use Marshalls primer as it doesn’t dry out to quick but has to be a cement primer. Can use sbr and cement mix also but that drys very quick 👍🏴
You recommend 5mm spacer on prosocline for best results ?
Yeh 5mm for porcelain and 10mm for stone 👍🏴
Hi Scott, are warped porcelain tiles commonplace? Recieved my 900x600x20 tiles and there’s a 4mm warp on both sides on the majority.
Seems to be a common problem these days with porcelain warping 👍🏴
Hi Scott, got a diy project. Basically a block wall with 20mm porcelain tile. What block, primer and mortar do you recommend? Gettinng mixed advice
Same answer 👍🏴
18:15 wet mix, what ratio did you use ?.. 5:1 or 3:1.Newbe here love watching your vids but without what ration to use i am totally lost... please say what ratio you're using.
4/1 sharp sand mix 👍🏴
@@tidybrickslandscaping Thanks for the reply, as i said i am a newbe, can you do a vid to say what ratio you need to have for various jobs, i'm sure it will go viral.
Did you stick the risers on with the primer slurry?
Yes slurry primer works a treat for risers 👍🏴
Can those slabs be placed over brick pavers ? Or is it better to remove it all then install. Here in florida the dirt is quite fine and moist
In that case regarding the earth/dirt then it would be better to have stone as a base if uncertain 👍🏴
Never heard of Soakaways, are those special to the soil conditons in the UK?
I don't think it would work in Australia, we've got too much clay and sandstone, so we always discharge the water to another area.
If there's any landscapers in Australia who knows something, please educate me :)
(I'm an Australian plumber)
Yes if there’s too much clay in the ground it does make it difficult so can’t really answer your question apart from divert in the water to somewhere else would always be helpful 👍🏴
@@tidybrickslandscaping Thanks for the reply!
@@ArkvaleColoniser no worries I’m here to help 👍🏴
Would a 3mmjoint on porcelain paving be too small a joint just asking for a friend 👍
Matty from brockstone does 3mm joints I think it’s to small myself 5’s plenty 👍🏴
Thanks I’ll tell him get 5mm spacers 👍👍
I thought a soakaway had to be 5m from the property??
In the ideal world it’s just a preference at the end of the day not a rule 👍🏴
Is this the job were you used a keep fit ball for the plaza oven🙈
Almost did but it didn’t work anyways plan b into effect 👍🏴
@@tidybrickslandscaping yes you used cut up blocks and sand the start of the job just popped up 6 minutes in didn’t see the beginning remember the tool for measuring up
👍👍 I thought you were doing a BBC Wales do you rerun😂😂😂
What is the name and colour paving tiles?
Towngate grey from marshalls I believe 👍🏴
@@tidybrickslandscaping thanks you send me the message
How come you have type 1 as sub base rather than concrete?
Here in the uk type1 is enough as it’s only foot traffic after all 👍🏴
@@tidybrickslandscaping I’m in the uk too, we always lay on a concrete base for patios 👍
37:55 don’t worry Scott I sometimes leave my fly undone too😂
Testicle testicle one two testicle 😆😆😆
We’ll spotted I need new ones after my holidays 👍🏴
The cage is open but the beast is asleep 😂😂😂😂😂
Have you allways worked with your brother?
Just since August last year I find it hard to find people that are capable these days 👍🏴
Nice job on the build but the music is woefully nauseating.
Sorry about that Doc music is always a tough one 👍🏴
