Hi,
Im about to embark on a long project of creating a garden out of a concrete jungle.
The long graden is currently, concrete slab patio, a concreted area and herringbone drive.
I want to turn the concrete area into a lawn. and put decking on the area currently occupied by the concrete slabs.
My question then, the concrete area (where i want the lawn) is currently split level, my plan is to level this with the harcore created when i knock down a garage and remove some of the patio.
So once its level and has approx 2ft of hardcore on it, what do i do next, there is obviously going to be a v.good drainage in this area, but will the soil just settle in the gaps leaving me with a totally unlevel lawn?
Could you tell me how to go about this process.
Thanks
Andy
