    I came to see the installation of the hose as well and a few ideas how to get the ground level for the patio pavers. Seems like that was all done ahead of time and she just put back the pavers where they were previously fitted because how often is the ground even exactly where you need it to be.

    Those pavers aren’t level, nor stable, do you realize the water weight? I would definitely secure that barrel to the house, I hate to see a neighborhood child or someone’s beloved pet get injured, or killed. You are not qualified to be giving advice.

  • @darrinlindsey
    @darrinlindsey 8 месяцев назад

    I realize that this video waa made 3y ago. The way you stacked the paver blocks, right on the uneven ground, will eventually fail you. The last few years have been very dry, down here over the Minnesota/Iowa border. So, our ground hasnt been saturated with rain water for some time. The proper way to do this, would digging about a 6" deep hole, where the pavers will set. In the bottom of that hole, put "Locking" sand at about 3" depth. Then, top that off with some crushed rock (gravel, pea gravel, etc.) Make sure its packed in tight. (Tamp it). If you leave it like you have it, eventually the ground will get saturated with heavy rain. That would cause those pavers to start moving around in the mud. With this, i would also line the four sides of the hole with something to keep it from collapsing into the hole (Pond Liner Material, ground rated 2x6, cut metal pieces, etc). This would be an extra safety measure, to keep the heavy, saturated soil from collapsing in on the lighter, more porous, rock and sand. But, if the sand and crushed rock is packed in well enough, that could hold it stable. Why this works is, the crushed gravel and LOCKING sand, allow water to flow though it. So, no water will stay in that hole. The soil at the bottom of the hole is packed tight enough that it won't cause any movement. If i wasn't clear about something, please hit me back with questions. Thank you for the info on rain barrels.

    question have you ever tried installing rain barrel under valley on a roof I am sure you will get some spillage but 100 gallons is worth a try as opposed to not positioning a rain barrel at all? i understand the gutter installation but i have issues on the valley both sides of my house

    • @mississippiwmo
      @mississippiwmo 9 месяцев назад

      We haven't tried it personally, but if it works, it works! Any way of conveying runoff into the rainbarrel that works for you should be fine. The main point of gutters and downspouts is to convey runoff away from the foundation of your house and toward specific locations. If you don't need that, and you have another way of getting rainwater into the rainbarrel that works for you, go for it! You could also do a partial gutter install specifically to convey runoff from a certain part of your roof into the rainbarrel.
