This guide was a solid refresher before I redid a short stone walkway in my backyard. The parts about building up the base in compacted layers and keeping a 1–2% slope for drainage were exactly what I needed, and the cutting tips (wet saw vs. grinder) were practical. I do wish it had a little more detail on how often to place expansion joints for longer runs, but overall it’s clear and easy to follow.
This guide was super practical and easy to follow, especially the parts about building up the base in layers and keeping that 1–2% slope for drainage. I also appreciated the reminders to dry-fit and avoid skinny slivers at edges—learned that one the hard way. The cutting section was solid, but I would’ve liked a little more detail on which diamond blades work best for different stone types. Overall, really helpful if you’re DIY-ing a walkway or veneer.
