Brick patios, gardens, pathways and sidewalks

Brick patios

To transform any backyard into a wonderful brick patio is easy for anyone to build. To do a patio, all you need is brick and mortar and some time. You may decide to lay the bricks in a row one by one all in the same direction. Basket weave is also another idea and gives your patio a creative look. By doing this you alternate the bricks in a vertical and horizontal way.

Brick gardens

Brick has been used in gardens for many years and is one of the most commonly used materials for gardens. You can use brick to border your flower garden. Use them to build a small retaining wall around your flowerbed. Brick is also a big help with water gardens. Use the brick to encase the area around the water. It will add warmth and added stability to the water feature.

Brick pathways and sidewalks

Crushed brick has a tendency to sink into the ground. In order to prevent the brick particles from getting lost into the soil, line the bottom of the walkway with landscape fabric. Do the basket weave with this idea also. You will get many great compliments on your design for sure.
