I would only suggest you start using plywood to protect the grass from unnecessary damage like that. You can use it over and over again on new jobs and your final product will be so much more impressive. Great job though.
Don't know where you're located or if you had the work done yet, but the price will vary greatly depending on where you are. In MA, this installation can cost anywhere from $6,500-9,000 dollars depending upon materials and access.
Looks like all you used was sand for the whole thing. That's gonna shift and look so uneven after one winter. Nice try though. Look up ICPI specifications.
@@deaconandrewkingtheinspira762 okay that's your opinion, I've been installing that stuff for linger than he's been alive so, not a hater, just do it right.
My exact thoughts I'm certified by ICPI and NCMA. Looks good now and will look like s*** later. I bet he won't show a follow-up video in about 3-5 years. I've been installing and overseeing these types of projects for about 18 years.
Looks like an inch of sand over compacted sand instead of compacted base and then your 1 in of sand. Now a guy like me gets to come back and do it the right way in a couple of years. Less if they get any kind of snow
how did you keep the bricks in place? I didnt see you spread any cement way laying the bricks for either the columns or wall? was this just a time saver or not needed for this particular project?
Nice job! Expert level! You made it look so simple. ....it's my 2nd time watching this. ......now I'm standing in my yard asking myself, where do I begin, again.
Looks great! Love the design. Only thing I would do different is to build the seating wall into the columns. Much stronger and more cuts. Columns won’t fall away from the wall...
CHRIS KARSSEBOOM lmfao. Most columns are attached if using the same materials. I realize the sand you use as you base! Lmfao!!!!! I would never hire you to do a patio for me bc someone else will be repairing very soon!
@@brianbergman2179 @ CHRIS KARSSEBOOM Could you use wire brick ties, if the blocks didn't fit well into the bricks for the columns? Or even some kind of rebar joinery or plate joining method? Or maybe even use a cut-off saw as you build, to "make" a hole in the pillars for the wall blocks to fit into the wall. Not as good as building together but better than just two free standing structures? Genuine question. Also, I don't know what type of soil you have there, but here in Australia, old-school bricklayers would always put in a deep concrete foundation with some reinforcing, even for a little wall and pillars like that. Nowadays, "bricklayers" or what passes for them, just do it like in the video.
Why no concrete footing , why no mortar , why have you gone so deep with your sand you should of use some mot stone leaving about 40mm for sand screed you sand to level whack the sand and screed again. Looks good but not going to last, iam not a hater but I do this everyday for a living all that will sink in a couple of years
This is a modular block system and I live in a climate that has several freeze and thaw cycles every season and a frost line of 4'. A footing is not used on these spaces and mortar would be terrible to use. That is exactly what would make it NOT last.
@@EvansLandscapeLLC fair enough I had a idea it was a modular block system but didn't no why it didn't have some concrete fill especially on the pillars were I come from it might be different but we wouldn't use that much sand we would build it up with hard-core to about 40mm put 40mm of sand down screed it then wack it and screed again I've had to go bk to jobs were they just screened to 40mm then laid on it and it's sunk within 2 years don't no how much sand your using also I'd concrete the edge rather then pin it I've used them before and they have failef
What did you cut every block forming the wall for? Just one side or both, to get the circular fitment? Didn't see you tamper the rock bed... how deep is your foundation? Looks good at the end.. I have seen fire pots done differently..
LightGesture the block has a natural 16' outside radius so no cutting was necessary. Yes, everything is packed in 2" lifts for proper compaction and the wall is built to standard specs with 6" of base.
Pretty good for your first build! Haha, just kidding awesome build not an expert in something like this but looked pretty damn good to me. Now sit back and enjoy all the keyboard experts chime in. The forethought on how you built it and layed out the materials was A+++

Wow this is top level stuff. Great work 👍
Guy in the bobcat got some skills on that machine
Thanks for the support Scott!
It wasn’t a bobcat it was a caterpillar
I usually can't stand DIY music videos, but this one was awesome. Good beat and outstanding work!
Thank you!
Blows my mind you did all that in 5 minutes
🤣😂🤣🤣😂😂💊💉
Haha
Nice work
Masterful
Nice work
Quintero g Thanks!
Sounds.like you reached.the.final Boss on an Sega Master System.game...

Professional!!
Absolutely Beautiful!!
Thank you!
I'm sending you my psychiatrist bill for having to listen to that demented weird music.
Mr Hill thanks for watching!

job though.
At 4:30 when using whacker plate made me pmsl. Good work and nice finish
MOLTO BELLO COMPLIMENTI!!

Didn't see any compacted stone for the base of project.
We stay busy going behind people that built hardscaping like this and have to fix it
Probably why it's not level, should've put all the pack down first and leveled it before he put the posts up
Looks like an inch of sand over compacted sand instead of compacted base and then your 1 in of sand. Now a guy like me gets to come back and do it the right way in a couple of years. Less if they get any kind of snow
Might be ok if the ground is already firm, he didn't disturb the ground much
I think what you saw was sand was actually gravel.
@@mickeypearce244 regardless if the ground is hard or not, you still need a base.
Legit man!!
Phuck me. That digger operator missed his calling. Had he opted for medicine we'd be transplanting heads and repairing severed spines by now. Whoa.
how did you keep the bricks in place? I didnt see you spread any cement way laying the bricks for either the columns or wall? was this just a time saver or not needed for this particular project?
Chosenmind1223 every block is glued with a flexible concrete adhesive. Hope that helps!
What is the diameter of the fire pit? What is the diameter of the seating wall?
My back hurts just watching.
Beautiful work.
Nice job! Expert level! You made it look so simple. ....it's my 2nd time watching this. ......now I'm standing in my yard asking myself, where do I begin, again.
Begin with some foundations !
Hey where’s the gravel you need a drainage system so that the whole thing doesn’t pull apart
This entire structure is built on 6” of class 2
No gravel base? Straight to sand?
great job!!! Could you please tell me the name of this wonderful soundtrack?
Thank you! This sound track is an original piece I wrote for this video.
@@EvansLandscapeLLC This soundtrack sunk into my soul) Very nice
Overkill 😂 I was expecting a pick and a edger 😂. Good way to make is jealous
So refreshing to find a video with great music and not some generic, overused crap. Oh, and the brickwork looks neat too.
Thanks for the support!
Just beautiful man it’s really good n nice work
Amazing job? Cost of this project?
$10k
Fucking awesome
Hi what was the full Diameter of the Project? thank you! looks awesome and is just what we are wanting to do.
Megan Hokaj this patio has a diameter of 18'. The seat wall and pillars are set on the outside of the patio. Hope this helps!
Looks great! Love the design. Only thing I would do different is to build the seating wall into the columns. Much stronger and more cuts. Columns won’t fall away from the wall...
Brian Bergman you can’t really do that. The block for the column is different then the pavers. Most columns aren’t attached
CHRIS KARSSEBOOM lmfao. Most columns are attached if using the same materials. I realize the sand you use as you base! Lmfao!!!!! I would never hire you to do a patio for me bc someone else will be repairing very soon!

what kind of paver and sitting wall blocks did you use?
Very nice. Let the sacrifices begin!
Awesome work, its so fun to watch others show off their craft
What brand block you used for the seating wall?is this block has the radius or you had to cut the blocks for radius?nice job!!
The block is Versa-lok standard units. This block had the radius, so there was no cutting needed except for the coping. Hope this helps!
Do you know the diameter of the seating wall.inside or outside.
George Stoumbos the natural outside radius of the block is 8’. That puts the outside diameter at 16’.
looks good but it will fail due to there being no base material under so it will fall apart
How many square feet is this paver patio?
Hi, I Wonder how much área was covered? I mean the size of that. That was simply wicked!!
Looks to be about 200 sq ft with a 20 foot wall.
What was cost of materials?
How much should I CHARGE FOR A PATIO LIKE THIS ONE?
You should have done a closer image
Where the hell is your modified base? Wont last with just sand
Think you used enough sand for the base, lol? And is there a reason why you didn’t compact any of the base before laying bricks on top of it?
We don't use sand as the base. All base is compacted before the bedding layer is applied.
Hi Evans, I didn't observe a paver base application below the sand which prompts me to ask what paver base did you use ? Thanks.
Beautiful job man
How much will it cost these kind a project
It depends on where you are located.
Ace. Lol. You don't have to buy a bobcat. What a dumbass. Maybe you should change your name to Beavis.
Ace Degenerate 10k for a bobcat? You mean one you’ll have to fix lol a new bobcat is like 70k
Great work, quality professional job
Thanks for following along!
That was frigging epic! Thanks Lad!
E E much appreciated!
That I can think of ,,, probably the nicest one I've seen ! Good Job
How much you charge aprox for a seating wall like that?
I'd charge no more than 2 grand depending on ground
gerard kerins and you’d go broke
@@Fj4LiFe23 thats true you guys have to know your prices. Just labor and materials is around this price.
There is no concrete foundation under the wall,it will fall over or sink,totally wrong
F$&)(ing irritating music !!
No modified stone
What in the apocalyptic zelda hell music is that geez
I am doing almost the exact same patio this weekend. My seat wall will a slight retaining wall. How would you pin versa lok blocks in a vertical wall?
what is the name of this paver kit? Work was very good.
Is this all just stacked or did you use morter?
fuck i want one
I need do my too
wooooooow very good job where you guys living
what's the machine you are using to press the pavers and why?
Perfect spot for a beer
How much does something like this cost?
Minecraft in the year 2371.
Very nice! Thanks for sharing.

Because it's built 100% wrong and will look like shit in less than 6 months. It should have been on a 6" compacted aggregate base mininum
