Hello everyone,
we recently had our driveway paved with natural stones. Unfortunately, I am not satisfied with the result. Many stones are still loose, and the surface is extremely uneven. We had a pathway paved with the same stones about 2 years ago, and that one turned out perfect.
I have already spoken with the builders, and we will find some kind of agreement. However, they are not professional landscapers but rather a general construction team that handles various tasks. (After 4 companies didn’t even submit a quote, we were just glad they finally agreed to do it.)
The main question is: How can I make the already laid stones as level and firm as possible? We are now trying to get a heavy (700 kg (1,540 lbs)) vibrating plate, as the previous one was too weak. Will that be enough to level everything properly?

Older people using walkers or canes, who may also have poor vision... Yes, the elderly group really doesn’t stand a chance either.

However, for the reasons mentioned (especially shoveling snow), it wouldn’t be an option for me.
This winter, I’ve already been very grateful for our smooth paving, as it’s so easy to clear of snow.
Of course, how much of an issue snow is depends on the geographic location. We live at 550m (1,805 feet) above sea level and therefore have to shovel often and a lot.

Snow removal? I just say climate change. So, is climate change to blame for a lot of snow or hardly any?
If we have none – climate change.
If we build tunnels and don’t know where to put the snow – climate change.
