1 Wrong dimensions
The garden path should be in width so that it is convenient to walk on it, and it is better to be able to disperse if you have two on the track. In addition, if you plan to transport fertilizer tracks or something else, plan the size sufficient for wheels or trolley. If the tracks will ride a baby stroller, calculate a comfortable width and for this.
2 Unsuccessful location
To comfortably get from point A to point in, carefully examine your site, and even better - create a conditional plan, where all strategically important objects will be marked. It should be tracks to them.3 Installation on the plain
So after the rain on your tracks, water was not stood and the puddles were not formed, it is important to lay them out under a slope. If this is not done, the track will begin to collapse, and in winter the stagnant water will turn into ice, which will not only destroy the canvas, but will also be potentially dangerous for those who pass on it.
4 No tranche
The trench for the track is needed not only to ensure the strength of the layers and that the track does not spread. There is not enough deep yam to lead to the fact that the canvas will rise above the rest and walk on it will be inconvenient and unsafe.5 Violation in the styling sequence
The durable path consists of several layers of material that precede the paving slabs. If you miss one of them or put in the wrong sequence, all the base may crumble. Usually, a trench is first made and flights are installed if they are needed, and then layers fall asleep. The most common and budgetary materials for layers are: sand, geotextiles, one more layer of sand, in the final paving slabs. All layers need to be tamped, otherwise the track can go by waves.
6 low-quality materials
In the desire to save, there is nothing wrong only if it does not go against common sense. Savings on materials is most often inappropriate. For example, a good street tile rarely can be bought at a rush price, so you should not make this item in the list of things you want to save. High-quality tile is easily determined, for example, by ringing sound (low-quality tiles - deaf).
7 Inappropriate details
Fantasy is wonderful, but in the case of installation of garden tracks, it can play a joke with you. For example, glass for tracks is categorically not suitable, it will make a beautiful element of landscape design potentially dangerous.
8 lack of protection against weeds
So that the pavement tile does not overgrown with grass and moss, you need to consider protection against unwanted plants at the stack stage. After all, some particularly persistent sprouts may even raise the tile itself, and this is a direct threat to the integrity of the canvas. Protection can provide, for example, a layer of geotextile or runneroid, do not neglect them.
