step

Hi I’ve removed rotten decking and planning to lay a patio. Patio level needs to match other paving, which is 3 bricks down from the dpc in these pictures. From patio to door threshold height will be about 260mm. My problem is building a step to the back door. The air bricks are under the door...

Hi everyone, I have a relatively small project but one I need to get right. The back of my garage I have my fridge freezer, washing machine and dryer. Our garage has been known to flood and ruin the appliances and so I am going to build a concrete step for the 3 appliances to sit on. The step...

Hi! Firstly... excuse the mess/dog hair.... it's a room not used much and am in the process of sorting it out. As you can see the step edging has literally disintegrated. Anyone know of a similar replacement edging strip? Original looks like pine, has a slight curve on the edge and it measures...

Hi all, I'm doing a 2m wide patio around a new extension. There is a 5m wide bifold which needs a 100mm step down onto the finished level of the patio. I have put down the mot and have to compact it, but I'm wondering about footings for the step. Pavingexpert says you can lay brick and flag...

I live in an 1890's end terrace which has a half cellar. The wall which separates the cellar has developed a step crack, spanning about 4ft in height. It follows the mortar, although one brick has split. The joints in the cellar are a little eroded at points, and I think the crack is perhaps...
