Bricking over a concrete path
I am currently planning my garden design, I want to brick over the current concrete paths so that new paths will all be uniformed with the exsisting paths. I can't afford to do all the paths at once, so want to make sure that when I do the paths, the borders, lawn area and patio are all at the same height as it needs to be wheelchair friendly. So my question is how much height do I need for bricks on top of concrete? Guessing its just sand then the bricks and then sand in the gaps but not sure the deph of base sand needed. Any advice welcome. Thank you.
