laying pavers

[llcooljerome]

Hi everyone, first post here.
hoping someone can help me out with a query I have. I want to put some pavers down in the back garden and currently the garden is covered with stones. pretty small stones so was wondering if I could dig it all up, dig down to the correct depth and re use the stones as a sub base? followed by a layer of sand and laying the pavers on top.

if the layer of stones wasn't enough, I would then add mot 1.

btw, it will be laid in front of my conservatory about 3M out and then just a narrow path leading to the rear of the garden.

appreciate any replies,

thanks

Your plan sounds fine. better to mix the stone with some MOT.

what do you intend to lay? Flags? block paving?

hi, thanks for reply. a small area of block paving.
mixing it with mot is exactly what I've decided to do. cheers for confirming that it's ok.
