This Paver Base System Solves a Huge Patio Problem

In this video, we’re walking through a smarter way to build a paver patio base.

This install shows how a rigid, permeable bedding layer can create a stronger foundation for large-format pavers while still allowing water to drain through the system. We cover the full EZ Way setup from the open-graded stone base, to the EZ Set trass bedding layer, to the EZ Bond mortar layer, and finally setting the pavers in place.

If you’re a hardscape contractor, installer, or someone trying to better understand what should go under a paver patio, this breakdown shows why the base system matters so much.
