Hi all,
I want to lay new paving slabs in my garden, probably from the house to approx mid way into the garden, then finish the rest off with grass.
I want to know what materials i need for the foundation and what depth?
Do i need Granular Sub Base MOT1 at approx 75mm then what do i need on top of this, is this the mortar or sharp sand then mortar and paving slab? Not sure hence why i want to check with you guys first.
I'm not expecting the garden to be perfect but its just me mainly doing this project and i have about a month to get it done as we want to enjoy the last of the summer with a bbq party. I can get helpers of course but I need to know exactly what I'm doing.
This is what it currently looks like, it was a massive jungle before, i should have the garden cleaned up by the weekend, then its a matter of deciding to lower or raise the floor then the foundation to go in.
Also need to think of something to put on the fence edges as they will have a gap.
Any info is greatly appreciated!
