How to Install Concrete Paver Edging
Lay all your pavers as you normally would according to your patio plan. Take a flat shovel and dig a trench for the concrete toe. Start at a point about 4 inches away from the edge of the border stones and dig down to a depth of about 4 inches. To cut the edge of the trench near the stones, use the flat shovel edge and dig straight down the edge of the stone, being careful not to disturb the stone or base underneath.
Mix a batch of concrete. Shovel concrete into the trench. Using the mason's trowel, push firmly to pack the concrete against the bottom of the trench and the bottom edge of the stone. Then smooth more concrete at a 45 degree angle up to a point about halfway up the stone. Allow it to set and dry for at least 48 hours before walking on the edge of the patio.
