Hi everyone,
I am looking to do my drive soon, and keen at the moment on the resin bonded gravel type of drives.
I plan to do this myself, I'm not a paving expert, but a very experienced DIY'er that has taken on everything at my house.
Now I know some will say "Dont do it yourself" but stubborn and inquisitive me will still take the job on, so just looking for some help and advice.
I understand that the best layer to lay this on is a concrete base. So my plan will be to prepare a MOT1 sub base, let it settle with car usage for a few months, the cover with a 100mm mesh reinforce concrete later before applying the resin bonded layer.
Does this sound about right, or over kill??
In terms of the resin, is this a special grade that is needed?
Many thanks in advance
