We have these 2 paver steps that are awkwardly tall. I'd like to add 2 steps to this by adding another layer of pavers to the lower step here, then adding 2 steps going off of that.
Would it be a bad idea to just lay the new steps directly on the existing ground level patio steps?
I've seen mixed guidance on using construction adhesive vs just polysand. Any thoughts on that?
Hard to tell from a photo, but it looks like it to me. I’ve mostly seen landscaping adhesive used for securing cement paver steps, it joins very strongly, it’s quicker to set than mortar, and it’s a hell of a lot easier to work with than mortar.
You’ll probably have an easier time of it ultimately if you pull out those decorative pavers where you intend to lay the new steps and replace them with some wider step or corner pavers. Much sturdier base and you’ll get a better adhesive bond.
