Patio Project Help – Flatness Before Continuing on…
I’m working on a 402 sq ft patio project and could use some guidance. I’ve dug down about 4 inches to prep the base. My plan is: • 1 inch of sand • 0.68 inches for Brock Paver Panels • 1.57 inches for the pavers That totals about 3.25 inches, leaving me a bit of wiggle room. My main question: How perfectly flat does the ground need to be before I lay down the garden fabric? I haven’t compacted yet and there are some high and low spots in the dirt. Do I need to mathematically flatten this out now, or will the sand level things out after compaction? Trying to find that balance between precision and practicality. Thanks in advance for any input! submitted by /u/2wo2wo3hree [link] [comments]
