Just redid my walkway after 30+years


just redid my walkway that was over 30 years old. My dad did the walkway a long time ago when I was younger.
Over these years, The walkway has taken its toll and most of the bricks have sunk and some were sticking up. Besides water started sitting on the sides so I redid the entire thing. My mom had someone come and look at the walkway and ask them if they could redo it and of course yes they said.
Anyway they hardly did anything but just put mortar or sand around the brick and looked like shit. It didn't hold up worth a crap. So More of a reason to redo it and my mom is older and has problems walking so I've redid it for her. It was a lot of work but it got done.

I used sand and concrete mix and reset and leveled all the bricks. Of course it's much better now but it was a lot of work.
The assholes that came and supposedly worked on it did such a shitty job. I guess if you want it done sometimes you got to do it yourself unless you find a great contractor. Anyway I will enclose the pictures.
As I said I did not use poly sand even though some people say it's good to use but I remember my dad never using it and I did pretty much what he did. After setting the bricks, I swept in the sand / concrete mix and then wet it.
