I am pricing out a job that has a 20x10 foot walkway/patio in it. I am looking to do it out of bluestone and have grass between each joint.


I figured i'd do the typical 6 inch base, 1 inch of concrete sand and then install the blue stone with about 4 inches between each peice. Then i'd scape out the sand between each peice and install top soil and seed.

Is this the right way to do it, or am i off base on this one?

That's how we do it. It works fine.

If it is not irrigated one inch of topsoil may leave you with cooked grass when it gets hot.

It irrigated.

If i am using 2 inch blue stone, and then remove the 1 inch of sand, i will have 3 inches of top soil then. I could alway use 2 inches of sand and have 4 inch of top.
