edit: one funny thing about that video, when they are done cleaning the area up in preparation for the tiles it looks pretty nice. I would have stopped there. LOL

Actually I like what they show in that video. If my patio looked like that, yes, I would not cover it, but like I said, mine is cracked, and I have a mixture of concrete and small bricks.

I think I will make it flat first, then replace the small bricks with some large tiles, and then cover it like in that video.
Bricks ( or concrete pavers ) need a good base to make it thru the seasons without shifting or frost heaving. I've cheated and it didn't take many Winters to show that I did.
Dunno how you stop weeds from coming up thru those wood and plastic tiles. Maybe put down commercial weed block ?
