We believe that's the only way to do business. The best way to install landscape edging bricks , blocks, and pavers is to follow the steps above. Some pavers have a longer front and shorter back. This might require turning every other block over to match the side edges, so be sure to get two-sided pavers that are the same on the top and bottom.
Interlocking pavers have a lip on the bottom to help hold stacked pieces in place; unless you plan to make an edge of more than one row, avoid interlocking blocks. In some cases, yes. If you want to keep grass from spreading into a flower bed , use a trench deeper than the grass roots or edging to separate the landscape elements. If you add a gravel or crushed rock path, edging keeps the rocks from mingling with nearby soil or mulch.
Depending on the length you need to edge and the type of ground, you can use a hand trowel, hoe, or shovel to dig your trench.
While digging, follow the spray paint line consistently. If you start out digging from the line back toward the garden bed, for example, and later switch to digging equally on both sides of the line, you might throw off your landscape edging placement. Once you understand the ins and outs of installing landscape edging, it is not difficult to tackle this project in a single weekend. With the right tools, a little prep, and just the right edging material, DIYers can add order and design elements to their yards with simple borders and edging.

I then grab my steps and set them down.
The first and longest two fillers were placed on each side of the pad, and then the first step was put down. The fillers were placed and then the front step followed. This process was repeated. During the process, the materials were constantly pitched and leveled to achieve perfection.
When it was time for the platform to reach the top, Marsh set the platform down using straps. He put a piece of hardwood in the front to hold it up just enough so that he could pull the straps out. If a set of steps isn't completely even on one side, Marsh will use stainless steel rollers to move it easily to get it exactly where it needs to be.
