Home Improvement Today?

Turned out nice!

 

Looks amazing! I'm tackling a paver patio for my next backyard project. I decided I don't want to dig down 8" so I decided to go the Brock paver base panel route. Will only have to dig down about 3" and then save on the cost of all the sub-base. We have clay in our dirt so hoping that it lends to the life of the patio!

 

I've got an area outside my garage where I keep my trash and recycling cans. It's grass now but I'm thinking of putting down pavers or doing a small concrete pad, but I've never done either of those things. Where should I start learning about it? Any advice from y'all would be welcome, too!

 

Hop on Pavestone's website. They have nice how-to on installing pavers.

It's not difficult, just a little tedious.

 

I get it, a-ROUND. because its a circle hehehe

 

Amazing. hahah

 

I cleaned my outside condenser coils. Summer is coming, my 17 year old unit is going to be working!

 

Anyone recommend a landscape (concrete) brick adhesive for top row on a small patio wall?

I have seen the Loctite Block Adhesive at HD.

My two pallets of block arrive today.

We were camping for a week or so. Had reception amazingly...........so didn't miss you guys.

 

The Loctite or the DAP masonry adhesive would be my suggestion.

 

Keep up the good work
Payoff in the end will be great
You picked the best paint in my opinion, B&M

 

FTFY The best paint is Valspar.

 

If it is the "Loctite landscape adhesive" then --a big YES -- it works super good. Just don't be stingy with applying the stuff and stay away a bit from your outer (exposed) areas as it does ooze out some with the weight of the blocks or bricks . This is what I used : LOCTITE PL 500 28-fl oz Landscape Block Construction Adhesive in the Construction Adhesive department at Lowes.com
I did buy it in the 12 pack (big tubes 28oz) With the case discount and my Vet discount The price was great - I returned 4 tubes, as I did not use it all. Funny thing about the stuff was that it does not stick to the cloth on your pants at all -just rolls off after it dries. I learned how to wipe my hands on my pants as a kid!
I made 12x12 inch x 33 inches tall pillars for a decorative/safety fence out of Edger blocks. my edgers were 12x3x4 each I'll try to get a pic later

 

I used the Locktite adhesive when I build my walls (using Pavestone winsor blocks.) It works just fine. Make sure you get plenty of tubes - I used more than I thought I would.

 

Liquid Nails would be my suggestion for the top of the wall.

 

Lol.

Benny Moore FTW.

 

Valspar Latex on the west coast SUCK DONKEY PAGODAS

Valspar used to be a top brand.

Ben-jammin More for latex
Cabot for oil stains and solid body stains

 

Miniwax for stains, my guy.

 

Indoor. Sure. But I have used others with success.

Outdoor?
