| Hi. I plan to lay about 200 sq. ft. of flagstone over a grassy area leaving about 2 inches between each stone. Rather than excavate the whole thing, I thought I would cut out the individual pieces of grass to fit the stone, add 2 in. of sand, use a level to make sure every thing is flat. That way the grass is already growing between the stones. What's the opinion of this method? |

| Sounds good to me. You will have a lot of edging in the future though. Does the lawn show the wear of a path now? Is that why you are installing the flagstones? |

| What constitutes good practice will vary with your zone. If you are in a warm zone, you could make it even easier on yourself. |
