Hi,
i've got a patio area around 8m wide along the house by 3m long.

I've put in wooden pegs around 1 every meter in every direction and added a 50mm fall from the start of patio near the house to the end of the patio


I've put some type1 MOT there - any tips on how I can level the type1 with the pegs so i get that fall away from the house?


i've read its best to get the fall right with the hardcore, then add 50mm mortar then the 20mm porcelain tiles on top but at the moment still have high and low areas
 
Just take it flat as you can, compact it, then fill any dips before compacting again.
