This bespoke designed project began with the client having the scheme designed professionally by a Landscape Architect. Having chosen the materials from Stockscape, a number of contractors were put forward by Stockscape & PDG Groundworks were successful in wining this project. The scheme was created with both stock materials and materials ordered directly, which consisted of an Egerton Red sandstone path, Magma granite paving main patio area with Magma granite tumbled setts to the outer edge. There was also a second drive area constructed using 50mm Magma granite setts with Royal White granite kerbs around the planter beds. The main patio area was excavated with stone hardcore laid to form working levels, on top of this was laid 50mm of semi-dry concrete forming a working base area. All the underside of the stone paving was brushed with a pre-mix primer & laid on a full polymer bedding mix. The paving areas were jointed with GftK 850 Epoxy resin mortar mix. The second drive area materials were ordered direct from Stockscape, using 50mm tumbled setts laid on full polymer bedding mix with added limestone to strengthen the mix. The drive area was jointed with Instarmac, Flowpoint, charcoal colour.
