Excavation depth and base thickness written into every quote

Compacted in lifts, not once at the end
Edge restraint on every open edge
Pavers only, so we do one thing properly
Why these exist
Almost everything people want to know before hiring a paver contractor is either missing from contractor websites or written to avoid answering. What a patio of a given size actually costs here. Whether sealing is worth it or just something that gets sold. What is supposed to be under the pavers, and what happens when it is not. Why a perfectly good patio developed a dip on one side.
These are written to answer the question. Where the honest answer is that you can do it yourself, or that you should spend less than you were planning to, that is what they say.
