    When we bought our house the original owner had used Readypave Ltd, so when we were looking to extend our pathway after a conservatory addition we again used Readypave Ltd. 4 years later we wanted to extend our existing driveway and once again called in Readypave Ltd. Excellent service and great guys. When we are asked who did the work we always fully recommend Readypave Ltd.

    I will agree that these men here are professionals. While as to type of tools or methods of applying colors can have many options based on someone’s preference and technique the true sign is the fact that they knew the importance of the subgrade which is why the also knew no rebar or mesh would be needed. Glad to know there’s still true knowledgeable contractors out there.

    I’m having this done at my house right now, your men look far more skilled and professional than the people working at mine. Yours looks completely flat and those cuts are almost invisible. The cuts on mine are noticeable and the staining seems to be fading already (was laid last week with powder colouring and acid stained borders couple days after then been power washed with a shampoo a couple times) they have still not used any sealer yet but mine is very dippy and wavey. You can see it and feel it under foot when walking on it little bits higher than others and also dips here and there particularly around manhole covers. Also they started on May 2nd now is May 31st and still not finished yet. Overall I wish your company was closer as this job looks incredible and is what I was hoping for. Sadly I must have hired some inexperienced cowboys. Might show them this video to show them how it should be done. Great video guys great work 👍

Laid a garage base with 6 inches of compacted hardcore before pouring 6 inches of concrete with square mesh inside. Lasted a couple of years before a crack appeared right across the middle. The base isn’t going anywhere and is still solid, but makes me wonder how long these concrete drives will last if laid on a similar soil. Nice job guys.

      There are usually services underneath most driveways. If they need to be accessed once it's laid then a section can be cut out and relayed with minimal scarring due to the lack of fading or wearing experienced by the surface finish, it would just need to be done by an experienced contractor.

    • @ReadypaveLimited
      @ReadypaveLimited  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi. Thanks for the compliment. the slab was 100-125mm thick fibre reinforced C35 mix which is more than enough for a domestic driveway. Not all slabs or ground conditions require inclusion of steel mesh, poorly installed mesh as often seen on videos can cause more problems than it solves. We always include polypropylene fibres in the mix and approximate 70% of the driveways that we lay have mesh included, to cope with clay ground, slab shape and heavier loading etc.

      most jobs are 1-2 days preparation and then 1-2 days concreting obviously depending on the size. We then have to leave the concrete to cure for 5-7 days and then the staining and sealing process is usually done in one day. the concrete can be walked on the day after it is laid but not driven on for 7 days whilst it gets up to strength.
