The adjacent territory or summer cottage always provides for laying tracks. This is not about spontaneously trodden paths, but about beautifully lined areas for convenient movement around the territory. In this case, the question arises of how to get them better. This article will tell you how to equip garden paths using paving slabs.
Of course, you can do with less money and time, falling asleep with gravel or sand. But think about whether such a coating is durable? Moreover, the bulk material will look untidy after a while, scattering on the sides of the paths. And paving slabs is a great choice. It fits perfectly into almost any landscape, looks elegant and is not subjected to climatic influences. You can do this material by laying this material yourself without even being a professional. The service life of such a coating is durable. And, despite the presentable look, such paths will cost you relatively inexpensive.
Now, about styling technology. First carry out preparatory work. From the surfaces where the paths will pass, remove the layer of turf from the soil and get out the grooves. Pour them with a layer of sand or gravel and tamp it thoroughly, making sure that a slight slope for draining rainwater is outlined. After that, you can install a garden border from a stone prepared in advance (average price – 120 rubles per linear meter, the price is taken with). See from the side what kind of path configuration you have formed. After all, if something does not suit you, then at this stage you can make adjustment.
The next stage provides for the establishment of a reinforcing mesh on which the construction mixture is poured, necessarily dry for uniform distribution. After which it is moisturized better than a scattered stream of water, for which the garden watering can. As a result of water impregnation, a layer of solution is formed about 3 cm. Put the paving slabs in this solution, observing the level between its elements. Instead of a construction mixture, you can use a special glue for tiles. It costs more expensive, but provides impeccable adhesion to the soil. It is advisable to purchase a rubber hammer in advance, with which the tile is driven into the solution for greater reliability and compaction.
As you managed to notice, the technology for decorating paths on the site with paving slabs is not complicated, even quite exciting. After all, the fruits of your work is always nice to see.
