    Block paving

    Hi I have currently a block paved drive. Wondered how difficult it would be to lift and re block pave with new stone. I'm assuming the sand underneath would be suitable to re use. Would need to cement new edgings in and make up with sharp sand. Any advice guys Cheers

    Garden bar ventilation
