I plan on using pavers around my pool with concrete coping. I have a dark, thick Texas clay for a base. So here is my plan on how to prepare it for pavers.
1. Level and compact soil with plate compator.
2. 3-4 inch layer of #57 Limestone gravel (1" -3/8" mixture), compact again
3. 1 inch road base over that, compact it while wet
4. 1.5" sand over that
Unfortunately, I cannot find anywhere 500 sqft of Mirafi 500X geo-textile, and using fabric from HD is useless from what I read. Any thoughts?
