New Patio

We have our new patio finished now at the back of our house.   I had made the original patio almost 30 years ago from used 24" x 30" sidewalk blocks.  It was sinking near the house and many blocks were broken.  The guys we hired to make our new patio did a great job.  They first removed the old patio and dug out the area with a small bobcat.  Originally they thought their small bobcat would go through our back gate.  But they made a hole in the neighbour's fence  to get into our yard.      (Fortunately the neighbours were not upset when they got home!)  They filled the area with crusher dust and leveled and packed it.  Then they put down a layer of sand to set the stones in.  They were very careful with their work, always measuring and checking with their levels and straight edges.  We are very pleased with the finished patio.   The stones are Barkman Holland  in sierra grey with charcoal borders.

After a little more clean up we just need to put the patio furniture back out and start using it while we still have some summer weather!
