Past 3 days we've been relaying our block paving driveway...
Yup, relaying... Chaps who did it initially were ******* useless. Herringbone pattern not followed, so random brick parts in the edges, not enough sand underneath, and the discovery that they cemented an inspection drain cover closed... Oh and it wasn't tamped down afterwards.
So been pulling all the bricks, laying more sand, replacing damaged or just wrong bricks. Cutting new ones as we've also changed the layout a little. Bought a new drain cover so it's usable again, it's also one of the type that we can put some of the bricks in so we don't have a horrible looking grey plastic drain cover.
The Evo Rage sliding mitre saw with the stone and brick cutting blade has been wonderful, so much better than the block splitter we rented! Overall, it's not been a pleasant couple of days.
Still have another couple of days to go... Tomorrow is probably only going to be a 8am-midday day. Apparently will be 36-38° tomorrow. Not going out too long in that. Might go hide in the cinema for a couple of hours.
