Build a beautiful custom patio or walkway with the step-by-step, photo-illustrated guidance of BLACK+DECKER The Complete Guide to Patios â 3rd Edition.
A patio is the hub and heart of any yard. Itâs the hard, flat, well-drained surface where you can comfortably enjoy the sunshine, feel a cool breeze, relax with a cold beverage, or hang around the barbecue with your friends and family.
Luckily, patios are relatively easy to design and install yourself, and donât require a lot of expensive tools and complicated techniques. BLACK+DECKER The Complete Guide to Patios â 3rd Edition guides the way with easy-to-follow instructions to plan and complete virtually any patio or walkway undertaking you can think of.
An extensive materials and design section helps you wrap your head around all the upfront planning, and the 30+ patio, walkway, and landscape projects are illustrated with detailed photographs to guide your progress.
From flagstone to interlocking pavers or plain gravel, all options are covered, as well as design tips, excavation advice, how to install a subbase, and how to install the most popular surfacing products.
Youâll also find a substantial section on earth-friendly patios that make use of recycled materials and keep water runoff to a minimum, conserving resources and removing pressure from our water-treatment facilities.
Discover how to create captivating:
- Patio and edging projects using sandset brick, cobblestone pavers, mortared flagstones, tiled concrete, and more
- Earth-friendly patios using recycled plastic pavers, recycled rubber chips, composite permeable pavers, subsurface grids, and more
- Walkways and steps using sandset brick, concrete, flagstones, gravel, timber, and more
- Patio rooms and amenities such as an under-deck patio, patio enclosure, screened patio room, and patio kitchen
