A little block paving reinstatement job taken care of today. Where the existing block paving had subsided and sunk.

We lifted up the Onld pavers and put to the side, cleaning off each block. Broke out the old bed for the bordering blocks. Concrete the border blocks back in to a line. Then screed a new sharp sand bed and lay the existing blocks back into position then compact.

Aswell, we removed the blocks around a gulley to remove the gulley and then rodded the drain run to unblock it. After the blockage was taken care of we Reinstated the ground back to its original state.

Our latest completed Project

Our wonderful clients had built this beautiful timber gazebo prior to us starting the work and felt it was needing a hard standing patio area to really be able to use the space.

- We excavated 210mm down within the area by hand and removed all waste and brought in all materials via gorilla bucket as access was poor.
- Set in Damson Cobbles in concrete (5:1) and backed up as a retaining border due to the patio being raised higher than the existing ground level.
- Installation of a non woven geotextile membrane
- Spread, levelled and compacted 150mm Primary Type 1 aggregate in 2 layers for subase
- Followed by installing Kandla Grey Porcelain 600x900mm tiles on a 40mm sharp sand and cement mortar bed (5:1). Each tile having a cement slurry primer brushed onto the back to enhance the bind to the bed.
- Grouted with an external Porcelain grout in Dove Grey
- A final clear and tidy with the last bit of touching up.

We really enjoyed working on this job. Especially when we were topped up with ice lollies, teas, biscuits and cookies. We were very looked after.
