Hi,
I wish to replace a block paving patio with larger paving slabs.
The current sub-base of the blocks is sound, hardcore/concrete with a well compacted layer of sharp sand on top.
Can I simply lift the block pavers and lay some cement on top of the sand to bed the slabs and maintain the current patio level or would you recommend removing the sand down to the hardcore/concrete sub-base and lay a further thicker layer of cement?
Cheers.
