Its not that often I will pass comment on other tradesman's work but when you see paving installed to a standard what could be achieved by a 6 year old child I had to take photos

They have laid the paving over a mound of earth hence the shape

So is this bad workmanship or is this type of finish to be expected in the future seeing as we have a shortage of skilled people in the UK

That's gotta be a diy job, if it really isn't then its by far the worst i've seen.
