Why do you need a foundation of sand, etc., if laying pavers over CONCRETE?

That's an interesting question. If the concrete isn't perfectly
level, the sand would give you the
ability to level them. I would think it would help with
water drainage too. I guess if it's perfectly level you
could lay them right on the concrete.


Isn't that much like putting down (ceramic) tile in the kitchen?

I'm thinking Sausalito(?) tile or similar.

In that case you have the thinset which is about 1/4" or
3/8" under the tiles to level them.
