If you did it yourself then yes I'm talking delivered concrete in a lorryI assure you it was mixed with the other ingredients, whether I should have done it that way is possibly debatable, but I did.

Wasn’t a big enough area for that, would have been ice though!If you did it yourself then yes I'm talking delivered concrete in a lorry
The only choice IMO. These look ok ish over time. The standard herringbone/basket-weave blocks (driveline50) don’t age as well.Nice choice of block 3 different sizes and no 2 rows should be the same
Hehe. The clue’s in the Marshall’s Name. ‘DriveLine50’.I've not used them in over 20 year's and 50mm blocks should never be used on a driveway just dont lay them upside down as i have seen plenty
I disagree with you on both counts, clay pavers are 100% uniform, I was a buyer for a construction company and I've never seen a mis-shaped clay paver. Have good look at my drive , done using the correct cutting equipment , there are cuts of paver 10mm - zero at an angle.The problem with clay paving is first trying to cut them and second they are not uniform in size or shape many firms will try and talk you out of using them but they do look nice in the right surroundings
My driveway is similar to yours, just twice the length.Just to add my 2p worth. I like resin but when we looked it was - as above - £££££.
So we went for gravel! Personally I find block paving a bit too austere and it does always seem to subside over time. My driveway is narrow and long. Only 9ft wide but around 30ft long so cars tend to always park in the same spot. My fear with blocks is that they would sink over time.
Sorry to disappoint you but everybody's entitled to their view , life's too short.Get the popcorn, this will be good.
Like anything in construction thats not got driven foundations at some point it can and probably will fail, the main takeaway is if the co that does it stands behind the quality of its work and it looks in this case as if they have.My next door neighbour had it done last year, the resin bonding has lifted where they park the car and there are colour differences across the drive. There are two pallets of materials just turned up for a retry. Got to say though that the Co who did it have great reviews.
What’s a ‘driven’ foundation then?Like anything in construction thats not got driven foundations at some point it can and probably will fail, the main takeaway is if the co that does it stands behind the quality of its work and it looks in this case as if they have.
