Order of Operations

1. Prep: Use the action hoe to pull back only enough soil to expose the outside of the pavers.

2. Fix pavers: Level anything sticking up and tighten any loose or separated bricks so neighboring pavers fit tightly.

3. Support restraint: If there is a void underneath, pack leftover paver base into it and tamp firm.

4. Install restraint: Fit it tightly against the bricks. Add extra spikes before and after brick joints, at restraint joints, around curves/corners, and anywhere that wants to move.

5. Soil and seed: Cover the restraint with topsoil, grade smoothly to the paver edge without covering the brick tops, lightly tamp, seed, and water.

6. Wash rock last: Rake the path level, rinse thoroughly with a garden hose, lightly stir the rock, and rinse again.
