Recently had a contractor install French drains and fix some missing fencing sections, but this project I want to do myself.
Going to add a flagstone entryway to my home. Originally was going to do something like this:
But thinking I may wind up just doing something like this instead:
the first one you have to dig the whole path out, put gravel and sand into the base, purchase a hand tamper to press it down, cut landscapers fabric to fight growth of weeds, plus pay for river rock and spread that as well. Just a ton more steps.
With the second option I just lay the flagstone, cut around it with a shovel, yank that dirt out, put some sand down for leveling and then put the flagstone step into the hole and make sure it's stable.
Looking to get that project done this weekend. There's a material company about half a mile up the street where I can purchase everything I need. After that is done my next project I want to create some river rock areas bordering my house and then put container plants for flowers throughout as well.
