block paving fixing edge

[dave68]

hi i am block paving my drive , 5x6 mtrs . I want to use paving as edge so do i cement all edges in place first . or must concrete be used . two of the edges are against wallls .

my plan was to cement all edges in place first and haunch sides of paving with concrete, as this would be easier to when laying blocks to run levels off for screeding . searching on the net have come across different methods . some do and some just lay edging when laying blocks . regards dave

hiya, there's no point asking that question here - everything you could want to know and more is to be found at http://www.pavingexpert.com/blocks05.htm[url]

Lay the kerbs first, just make sure you measure the sizes so you don't end up with a small sliver of paver at the kerb. (not an issue on large areas)

thanks for info . i wanted to lay the complete edge first . area is 70mtrs . i have seen many different methods . but that makes sense especially when screending to run the levels off . thank you
