Driveway pavement join

[23vc]

Doing my driveway, 5+m wide, and the pavement is kind of dished/undulated along the boundary line where it’ll meet a couple of courses of my new pavers before it transitions to gravel.
Am I better laying the pavers to follow the dished gradient of the pavement, or pulling a tight string line and doing them level? That’d then cause a bit of a step up on the middle section, which I guess I could do a sharp sand cement fillet on.

Probably not explained very well, can you picture what I mean? Thx

Keep your paving line straight or straight-ish. It's ok to deviate from a dead straight line, but more severe dips - avoid!

Cheers, I’ll pull a string across and see how far out it’ll be. I can do a bit of a conc. fillet ramp to soften it at the deeper bit

I did mine nice and straight, with a weak cement fillet to the crappy footpath in the hope that the council would redo it - that was 10 years ago and still waiting!

Lay it straight. In time, the pavement in time will be replaced, and level to match it, though may take some time.

Just to hijack my own thread, am I right in thinking I should probably put those concrete 6” edgings buried level with top of pavers and pavement, between the two? Guess it gives my pavers a bit of protection when they maintain the pavement? I’ve seen it done with and without but I am guessing with, is the better job ….

Yes. Always have a demarcation edging. You will see them installed on sites (between domestic and Highways), for a reason.

Thx, glad I asked
