I often blitz brambles with a hedge cutter attachment,then mow them. All things Stihl are good.

A lot safer to dig and set in concrete. If you were really unlucky and damaged a fiber optic cable you could get an enormous bill.. Most modern houses tend to have a 1.8-2 metre service strip but you would be aware when you bought the house, They are usually denoted by a break at 2 meters on...

You could use a box shutter to save concrete, allow a good 18" square and then backfill. the problem with filling is the ground is nothing like digging a hole in virgin ground. Lean mix would be cheap , 10:1 mix with ballast. so its a case of making sure its ok in a good wind. .

You could do it with block paving or slabs and use a block kerb for the edging. or brick and tile, avoid wood though unless its a hardwood step on its own.

excellent choice, whatever you like to secure them then..

I presume there concrete posts? If so either,if wooden they will be easier to change in a bit of post mix rather than a lot of solid concrete.

What's to the left side? As you have a solid stop on the right with the concrete . Can you take a pic from further back to show all the steps and what it goes too? Be a help in advising

Raw bolts

Put the shed on bearers and use any good wood treatment. Should last if treatment is regularly applied

As long as surface water can get to wherever it needs to go then I can't see a problem in the water sense, though you may need a grit bed and open grit jointing to allow water to travel. 80m2 of standard paving will weigh around 8-10 ton plus the bedding material which will add another 4-6 ton...

Should be fine.

You have a nest 100%. If there not bothering you just leave them.they'll be gone September.. They ted to find ways in,so id not bother trying to block them. you can treat them with a good wasp killer But you need to get to it,not easy if its in a bad spot inside the roof space. best to spray...

Blind it with sharp sand,whack it down and bed the slabs on a sharp sand cement mix around 6:1 mix,damp not wet. Best way would be to use a screeded bed. Or hand lay if your upto doing that.

That's when you use big bi- folding doors and glass. Different to what your asking. Do what you want it's your property. I'm only advising from a contractor point of view. I wouldn't do what your asking for a customer unless they asked in writing.

Squirrels!!!

150mm isnt critical you can go a bit higher but 125mm should be max and then a small step ect. The base won't be very thick . If the base is a standard 4x3 m you will struggle to get a fall. I know it's a pain removing the base but its going to cause more trouble keeping it. Another option may...

You need to remove the base.

You can get sleepers in 200x100 x 2.4 so a lot less digging

Can you set 2 sleepers into the ground? Neat and easy, and no bricks to lay or footings ect

You need to weed kill then re-sand. Unfortunately most people pressure wash and only do half the job. The over use of a washer on the joints washes out the bedding sand so you then get sinkage.. Eventually you need the paving relaying.
