This looks very well done to me, and I don't understand some of the negative comments which appear to be trolling at best. It's always a good sign that tradespeople have vans and uniforms with the company's logo on: shows that the ones in charge care about their reputation.
I laid a 70 ' block driveway in the late 80's over engineered, 18 inches of rubble 6 inches of cinders ( free I worked at a small coal power station ) sand and all compressed with a wacker plate ( rubbered ).
Longest job was cutting the edge bricks as it was herringbone pattern, used the kids as brick ferryers and whacked sand in.
Result still looks good today as when laid, even had 7.5 tonne truck on it at times and no sinkage.
Great work , guys
Nicely done, I had to lay 240sq metres of marshalls tegula paving on a commercial building site yesterday and I'll tell you something...it wasn't easy!
Here almost 10years later watching this. Good video - is the driveway still there?
nice job lads
Amazing job guys! You're slow but you really do a great job. I loved the border design! Keep up the good job!
top job guys!
nice work
nop good job! I would have done the same way over 4 days, smilling workers always good:)
Thanks
@Hambag2009 , sorry about the delay in getting back to you , the answer to your question is the square metal box we installed on the driveway is a resessed manhole cover. Which is a metal tray designed to install the blocks into to hide the origianal manhole.
DARREN
Nice job
Should of cut the block round the fence post looks better with block right up to base panel just lazy putting mortar in the gaps
David Wright or even put gravel in if you was to do it that way
not bad boys! cheers
Looks good to me
whats the total price for that job?? awesome work boys
what is that square metal box thing in the floor near the drainage?
The cost was around 8k and blocks where not permeable as we drained water into a soakaway via a linear drainage system
i think complaments are in order, thats the first time i¨ve seen someone laying pavements the same way i learn to do it and still do, the only thing i thought was thin the hardlayer of gravel/grus looked a bit thin then again its not that easy to see, how thick was it and how much and for how long does it freeze where you¨re working.
Nice job u need one person laying tho cus they just get in each others way and with 2 laying the lines run out, sands crap as well always ends up sinking. Lime dust is the way forward
As the Marshalls catalogue states, expect to pay 80% labour costs to 20% paving costs.
No, this is not a permeable block, instead we used a linear drainage solution.
Needs sealing to bring the colour out on the blocks.
ruff job!!
good job, who cares how they got it to all those haters, nice and neat
nice job lads, how deep do I go if driveway is for long wheelbase vans and campers, cheers 4 help
About a mile deep mate.
Not that the new doesn't look fine. Those old paving slabs were beautiful. I would have just reset them.
The drive they are taking out is in better shape than mine, ouch.
Pitty that you didn't show how you put down the drainage system. Otherwise nice.
Hardcore should be layed in two layers and both whacked separately no way would that compact
how much would a job like that cost ya?
between 6-8k depending on the groundwork thats involved
Average at best,no retaining blocks on concrete around grass ,old drains left in and no concrete sub base will sink within 6 months
concrete sub base ? you fucking clown hahahaha
Making me eyes water watching it fucking ell was it a Friday
Rough
Rough job, for sure.
The metal box is a night deposit box,that way when the driveway sinks, the homeowner can get his money refunded.What a great idea over in cold gloomy England.
how many m2 in this job
90m2
think ill move over to liverpool that job shouldnt cost any more than 5k with 3 men
This job was done in Southport not Liverpool
You must be a cheap skate
What a joke why so many men the poor boys doing donkey work at beginning then a digger comes in why not lift a couple slabs then use machine
The design is so terrible .so much work and at the end it's looks dirty and it doesn't match the red brick of the house ...
4 guys laying out hardcore. 1 guy and a machine can do it in half the time. It's like seeing a site from the 50's. all materials are being transported in wheel barrels wtf. Also having the pavement so high up on the brick wall is a big no. Moisture will get into the wall.
2 day job not 4 n 5 days slow !
As soon as I see workmen in trainers…………...
Could of swept the fucking job off properly!
Lmfao 4 people n it takes 4 days? Me and my worker will get it done in half that time with a better besigns.
no one cares
Hope you groundwork is better than your fucking spelling.
And where the weed membrane lol
2 slow
Shit
All wrong,concrete base for driveways always
