The driveway is excavated to a depth of 300mm below the finished
driveway level. Then a 200mm layer of hardcore stone is added.
this is then compacted with a 1 ton roller ready to be sanded

Using the mini digger and shovels we add a 50 mm a layer of sharp sand
on top of the stone which is then compacted.

The sand is then "screeded" by hand to the slope of the drive
ready for the blocks to be laid.

Then we fill any gaps in the drive using hand cut blocks and also fit
manhole covers and drains during this process
