Day 10

Laying of the permeable driveway paving blocks

The 3mm clean stone infill id brushed into the joints of the permeable driveway block paving units and a wacker passed over the top to vibrate the stone tight and iron out any minor high spots.

One of two recessed paving trays is installed to the correct heights and levels, the tray is squared off to suit the laying pattern.

This is a first, I've never experienced any onsite squatter parking a caravan on my unfinished works, I'm afraid this eye sore will be in most of my images from here on. I will ask the client that I return once the project has finished and they have moved in.

The entire permeable block paving surface is washed to remove the pink dust from the 3mm infill grit.

Day 11

As I mentioned in previous pages, i have broken the large permeable driveway project into two sections, the second part of the permeable driveway near Tiverton commences.

The same permeable installation applies to part two, 40mm clean stone from sub grade to the start of the 200mm sub base.

Two consolidated layers of 100mm each layer with 20mm clean stone

The upper screed course consists of 40mm of 6mm clean stone consolidated.

"Plus it doesn't matter if we all know plants are better value. I'd make the point of this to the customer but if they want trough grown at the extra cost that's their choice I'd just do it"

"I've done 5ft Thorne troughs. Very easy to plant just got a mini digger dug the trench then drop them in couldn't be easier however £250 per m does seem expensive. "

Thought I'd sign up to this forum. And I hope I'm allowed to post stuff for sale on here as this will be a one off? I have for sale a tiny pro robot, it's not the new edition but it's the bigger one of the two. If anyone is interested then please…
