STEP 1: Define the dimensions and confirm the layout of your project
Before diving headfirst into the installation, it’s essential to determine the dimensions and layout of your project. It may seem tedious, but don’t neglect this step! Good preparation is the guarantee of future success. As the saying goes, “a good plan is half the job” !
STEP 2: Know your soil’s composition
Did you know that the soil composition can make all the difference to the load-bearing capacity of your foundation? If you have any doubts, you can carry out a simple soil test yourself or call in an expert. To do this, use a metal tube and push it into the ground as deeply as possible. Then remove the soil from the tube to analyze its components.
Clay soil will be sticky and difficult to shape, while sandy soil will have a grainy texture and break up easily. If you’re unsure of your results, we also offer professional soil tests to help you sort things out.
