Hi all,
Im about to start doing a patio. Ive dug out the area about 50-80mm down. I have some limestone scalpings I'll be using as hardcore. Do I put the membrane under the scalpings or on top? Also when people refer to a paving slab mix are the slabs laid onto a dry mix or wet mix? I know grouting can be done with a dry or very slightly wet mix I wasnt sure if the same principles are used for laying the slabs.
Also I have two different types of membrane available for the job. I have some woven landscaping fabric (100gsm type) or I have some leftover damp proof membrane from another project. Which would be better for the patio? Im keen to use the dpm so I can used the landscaping stuff for other areas in the property.
Thankyou for your help
