Paver Patio...

On Tuesday we began installing a paver patio in Pullman. There was considerable preparation that needed to be done to the site before the actual pavers could be laid, nearly 10 cubic yards of soil needed to be removed to give the area the appropriate level and slope, but we did install a small retaining wall that will function as the lip to a flower bed running along the portion of the house that abuts the patio. The retaining wall will be built out of Mutual Materials StakStone while the pavers themselves will be a herringbone pattern of Mutual Materials Roman Holland  concrete pavers.

The slideshow at left shows the process from what was there to begin with, to concept, to the actual process of the installation. I'll add more pictures as the project progresses.
