How much sand do I need for my patio?
Last week a gentleman on Yahoo Answers told me that I needed about (15) 50 lb bags of sand to complete a 10 X 15ft size flagstone patio I am making. (6 inches deep) A local nursery sells sand by the scoop. (large & small) On the flyer they have it says a large scoop is 1/2 cubic yard. A small scoop is .65. ( I dont know what this decimal means exactly.) How many scoops would I need if I buy the sand this way? We live close, so we can haul it in our truck bed, even if it means making several trips.
So do I need a 1/2 ton then? or a whole ton??
So How Many Tons Do I Need???
Buy the sand in bulk at a sand and gravel pit. If you have a pickup, you can get about a 1/2 ton of sand per load for about $10. Usually they will load it with an end loader. By the way, I would only put in about 2 to 4 inches of sand, not the 6" recomended.
