Concrete pavers for shed base.
A foundation of pavers sits on leveled exposed ground or a sand base.
They provide a solid flat base upon which to build or set a shed and evenly support the floor.
Mix together the sand and cement and then add a 2 inch layer of this mixture to the gravel.
The base of your paver shed foundation is gravel.
The gravel should be 4 to 6 thick 6 inches is better.
Pavers also prefer a gravel base but can go straight on flat level ground.
Just make sure that you don t use gravel for a shed base or a single sized aggregate as this will not compact or lock together.
Mark any pavers that need cuts.
Lay out the pavers in the area to gauge the dimensions.
To secure the shed simply dyna bolt the shed down to the pavers.
