So this happened

Real question though, would epoxy ever let the anchors come out when it was time to replace them ? Is there such a thing as securing them too well ?

The epoxy would hold those anchors there long after the nuclear apocalypse has turned your entire yard into a desolate wasteland … aka, any yard in southern Arizona.
 
I'll fill them with polymeric sand to match. The anchors go through the slab under the pavers, they aren't going anywhere.

Yeah. No two of the springs are compressed the same. :ROFLMAO: I'm going to give it some time in the sun and wind and will tighten them up soon.

No explanation there but LAZY.

It looks worse in the pic and is only 2 - 3 inches off, but still. They drilled several other stones in the middle, why is that one special ? Because zero pride in one's work anymore, that's why. *sigh*
The one on an angle is probable due to not wanting to drill the center of the block.

No doubt. But why only that one and the other 7 (?) of them that didn't line up with a seam were drilled where they belonged ?

They did it to mess with you. Leaving you all winter to agonize over the question “why”. In the end, you’ll wind up like this guy -

But I know why. It was Beer:30 and they wanted to go. No, it wasn't even lunchtime but construction type jobs start early so anything after 10AM is the 'afternoon'.

The engineer in me would NEVER allow that fastener to be that far off. Heck, I came home from work and pulled all the concrete forms the installers put in and reinstalled all of them straight and square when I had my pool installed.
 
@Newdude , I know you’re ready to put this thread/build to rest & move on but it can’t end like this….
Our P.O.C.D. (Pool Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) won’t let it! Not when you’ve come so far!

I agree. It's pavers. Pull the pavers Hold those accountable, accountable. Drill, baby, drill. The center is the place to drill. Polymeric sand is pliable when wet.

FIX THIS!!!

It’s settled!
Yeah. I was laying in bed last night thinking how I didn't pay the sloppy work price. They sure took the good work money from me. They made about $1k in profit on the cover, plus $500 in labor for 3 hours of work.

And as much as I want to be done with the project, if I let it go it becomes acceptable for the next 10 customers.
 
Email sent. :ROFLMAO: They were already coming back anyway to replace this stone

It's the closest possible spot to the house at the stairs. They clearly started drilling and changed their minds. But let's not say anything. Oh no. Let's see if we can get away with it. (y)🤞🙏

The office guy 'wished his guys told him'. Yeah Bruh. That makes *2* of us.
 
You need your “brothers from other mothers” to fly out and stand with you supervising their work
Actually I think y'all should come, but just to watch the show while the sisters from other misters have a go.

Did he just tell Kim / Casey / Mdragger THAT ????? Oh NO. This isn't gonna be good for him. I can't watch.
