How to lay a 3-foot-wide flagstone walkway

Steps : 

1.-  Use a garden hose to lay out the shape and location of the 3-foot-wide walkway.

2.-  Cut through the sod and roots along the hose using a flat-blade shovel or edger.

3.- Dig 3 to 4 inches of dirt from walkway.

4.- If you encounter a thick root, cut it out with loppers.

5.- Install steel edging along each side of the walkway.

6.- Hold the edging in place with steel spikes.

7.- Cut slots in a 2x4, spaced 3 feet apart, and slip it over the edging to maintain the correct 

walkway width; install one spacer every 8 feet or so.

8.- Cover bottom of excavated walkway with filter fabric.

9.- Spread 4-inch layer of pea stone over the fabric; rake it smooth.

10.- Lay flagstone onto the pea stone, making sure the best-looking side is facing up.

11.- Press the flagstone into the pea stone, then tap it with a rubber mallet.

12.- Continue setting flagstones, while maintaining consistent spaces between them.
